First of all you misquoted the scripture.
"I'm not exactly sure where, but I know that the Bible says that sexual sins (sexual immorality, fornication, adultery, etc.) are the only sins committed against the body; all other sins are outside of the body."
This is what the scripture says.
1Co 6:18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
This does not mean that the only way to sin against your body is to commit fornication. It is telling you that EVERY SIN is without the body. That includes fornication. Fornication is unlawful sexual acts. (Masturbation, anal sex, sodomy, homosexuality, beastiality, S&M, etc...all of that is fornication).When it says every sin is without the body that means that it is a sin against your soul. To prove that, look at this sin
=====================
Eating Pork
Lev 11:7 And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you.
Lev 11:8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you.
The commandment is not to eat pork, if you transgress (break) this commandment, you have commited sin.
1Jo 3:4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
So its clear that eating pork is a sin. To eat it, you have to put it inside of your body, just like to smoke weed you have to put it in your body. So fornication is NOT the only sin commited against the body. What it is telling you is that if you do that you are sinning against your soul.
Lev 20:25 Ye shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and unclean (like the swine), and between unclean fowls and clean: and ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by fowl, or by any manner of living thing that creepeth on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.
That is clear. For you to disagree then you are saying that it is alright to eat pork. You are saying it is alright to stab yourself. You are saying it's alright to lie (that requires your lips) which it is not, becuase the bible clearly tells you that alll of that is SIN.
==========================
Smoking weed IS a sin, because it defiles your body.
1Co 3:16 Know ye not that ye (our bodies) are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? (It is meant to be kept holy)
1Co 3:17 If any man defile the temple of God (the body), him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
Here we are commanded not to defile our temple. Weed has 20x the potency of ciggaretts, that does defile you. It does kill your brain cells, and it does dirty your lungs.
