pipe screens are as safe as you can get, or at least they're no where near as bad as smoking marijuana (and even that isn't bad when used responsibly and in moderation). Smoking anything is unhealthy, but a screen that was MADE to be put through high temperatures and not burn (aka- pipe screens you can buy at headshops) isn't going to cause you any damage, unless you sit there and torch the thing for a minute or two.

Also, it helps if you change the screen out every once in a while. They can get pretty clogged up and nasty...

:edit: The problem with smoking from aluminum foil is that it's thought to cause Alzheimer's disease. I did a little digging and found this on wikipedia.org

It’s still best to avoid smoking from aluminum, if just for the fact that it tastes like utter crap; they can also give off some pretty nasty fumes that aren't good for your lungs. responsible use of marijuana is minimizing the risks involved in smoking it, which is reason enough to avoid using aluminum foil. Using it for a last ditch effort is one thing, but aluminum shouldn't be the only thing you smoke out of; there are much better smoking devices out there that are very cheap. I know you can pick up a metal pipe for like less than five bucks at a headshop, papers are dirt cheap and work perfectly fine, and you can even find some really cheap glass pipes at some gas stations.

There are stainless steel, brass, and glass screens. I now have all three. I am going to give the brass screens I have to a friend because I hate brass. I only use a SS screen for my glass whip, and I use a glass screen for my glass pieces. Nothing better than glass on glass.

Foil is not "fine" for a couple of reasons

1.foil tends to alter the taste of weed considerably, and is extremely "harsh" to smoke from. I like to relax when i smoke and enjoy it. I don't enjoy inhaling nasty smoke that hurts my throat. I like my mj....I see no reason to abuse it in such a manner

2. Health risks- The possible dangers of foil have been addressed previously, however, you seem to believe that marijuana itself is more dangerous than the precieved dangers of smoking from foil. What, exactly, do you find "dangerous" about marijuana itself? the plant is nontoxic, and has never been proven to cause cancer (and actually has been shown to REDUCE cancer in some cases). Yes, breathing in ANY smoke can cause throat lung irritation, but foil increases this irritation much more than other methods. I, for one, refuse to smoke out of foil, but have little to no irritation using a bong or glass pipe. My primary question to you is what dangers do you associate with marijuana being "bad for you"? Its certainly no worse than many other things are, when used in moderation. Excess use of almost anything, incvluding WATER, can be dangerous. What dangers do you associate with moderate marijuana use?
