I find all forms of smoke extremely offensive. And my sensitivity to all smells is very low.I like incense in my Church, for some reason it makes me feel like I am in God's presence (besides other things like the Eucharist and the Choir but I don't want to talk about that). What do you think about incense?
Forgive me if I'm a bit skeptical. There are monks who practically live in incense smoke their entire lives and most of them live much longer than the average layperson.If you scroll down to the bottom of the blog post, you'll see some suggestions to reduce harmful exposure:
– Restrict the use of incense to festivals and special occasions
– Reduce exposure time when incense is used in worship
– Ensure the building is well ventilated (open doors and windows) during and for some time after the use of incense
– Use incense of the highest purity possible, to avoid additional contaminants, and reduce the amount of harmful substances produced

Incense out side of church is fine however , in church it makes me dizzy and nauseous and I have to leave (step fathers Catholic funeral). Don't ask me why but I suspect as a child when I was in Catholic church the stations of the cross were not only grueling but was met with a growling stomach thus becoming symptomatic.

Just because you don’t like something doesn’t mean it’s evil.It's like candles. Maybe it's not evil, but I don't like it.

The act of lighting a candle out of respectful prayer is different than using a candle in witchcraft.
Witches believe that the candle can be charged and is vital for the witchcraft.
Lighting a candle for respectful prayer is just a way to have a visual reminder of the prayer or Holy Spirit. Just as incense is just to visualize prayers going towards heaven.
They are two very different things.
