"Spiritual Smokers" In The Church?

A recent article on health care organizations refusing to employ smokers got me thinking about how we sometimes refuse to "employ" people that have committed certain sins ("spiritual smokers") in our churches. In The Ethics of Not Hiring Smokers, Harald Schmidt, Kristin Voigt and Ezekiel J. Emanuel argue that the whole point of health care organizations is to care for those with health problems.

...it seems paradoxical for health care organizations that exist to care for the sick to refuse to employ smokers. [...] It is callous -- and contradictory -- for health care institutions devoted to caring for patients regardless of the causes of their illness to refuse to employ smokers.
