Short answer: yes.
The question is, how harmful. Most hazardous materials charts show paraffin to be a low-level hazard. It is harmful if swallowed, like most petroleum products. You should avoid breathing the vapors, use it with adequate ventilation, and avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothes. Wash thoroughly after handling paraffin.
If heating it for use in sealing preserved foodstuffs such a jellies and jams, a container of paraffin should be placed in a container of hot water and allowed to melt from the heat of the water. It should never be heated over open flame, or over an electric heat source, because the vapors given off when it is hot are highly flammable.

Why smoking causes cancer?
Scientists aren't really sure exactly what "causes" cancer, so it's difficult to answer this. Cancer is essentially a breakdown in cellular reproduction, causing the cells to reproduce out of control. We know that exposure to certain chemicals ("carcinogens") increases the likelihood of cancer developing, but we also know that some people are exposed to those chemicals with no harmful effect and other people develop cancer for no clear reason. That said, tobacco smoke (and smoke in general) does contain a lot of chemicals that are known carcinogens.
