That is not true, the chemicals in the plant are particles, and when the "vapors" cool and condense they will form "tars" (e.g. resin) in the throat and bronchial tubes. There is no difference between "vapor" and "smoke" scientifically speaking, they are the same thing, sublimated particles from solid to a gas. In smoke, not ALL of the particles have completely vaporized so the vapors are muddied by ash and soot. In "vapor" from vaporizers the temperature is only hot enough to vaporize water, THC, and several other chemicals from the plant material, but not enough to burn it all. So the "vapors" are the same as whats in the "smoke", but the "smoke" has more particles. The question is never is tar harmful or not, the question is what chemicals are found in the tar? With tobacco smoke, there are dozens of carcinogens, including radioactive isotopes, which cause cancer. None of these are found in herbs, the only carcinogens found in herb smoke are a very small amount of hydrocarbons from burning the plant fibers. These are negligible unless you smoke a huge volume. One of the things that makes cigarette smoking so toxic is the volume, smokers smoke between 5-50 cigarettes a day, which is between 7-75 grams of tobacco. Simply put, a person would pass out long before they could consume that much greens! Its like a natural safety valve. You are statistically more likely to get cancer from living in an apartment or working at a warehouse than from consuming herb smoke.

To each their own, but ini prefer the more natural approach, fire is a crucial element, when consuming herb in chalice you comine all the forces, earth, breath, fire, and water. It is what makes for a mystical combination. When your vaping, its like smoking in the Fifth Element, something too different for me. Again, too me its impart a matter of taste.
