This Is Not A Democracy

I'm in two minds about this because while I do stick to the core things of sXe - no drinking, no illegal* drugs and no smoking, and even refrain from promiscuity too, I'm wondering if it is slightly hypocritical to claim to be Edge when I'm a former addict of both drugs and cigarettes and still do 'other' negative things to my body...

_{* It is my understanding from reading about Edge that it does not actively discourage the taking of any prescription medication as directed.}
