The Holy Smokes Pipe Roll

"In Catholicism the pint, the pipe, and the cross can all fit together" - G.K Chesterton

The Holy Smokes Pipe Roll is a mashup of 2 favorite past times: pipe smoking and discussing apologetics. It is a tribute to late nights with close friends, where all of the above often intertwine.

The pipe roll has storage for 2 pipes, a tobacco tin, a lighter, a pipe tool, and comes with an integrated leather tray for your tobacco.

A huge part of my reversion began when I started listening to podcasts about the 5 Ways to Prove the Existence of God by St. Thomas Aquinas. As an engineer biased toward systematic/logical thinking, hearing serious arguments for the existence of God presented a thought-provoking, refreshing take on my faith. For me, it was the intellectual barrier to the faith that had to be crossed prior to the emotional.

Because of the impact these arguments had on me, I wanted to integrate each of St. Thomas Aquinas' arguments (Motion, Efficient Cause, Possibility & Necessity, Gradation, Design) into this pipe roll. My hope is that this will inspire opportunities for others to share in the joy of deep conversations with good friends.
