DO NOT BE DEPRESSED AFTER READING THIS. Studies also show that Depression causes cancer.

So what do you think? Do you think we're going bit too far to this. Even the things that do not cause cancer, most likely are bad to you in some other way.

It is IMPOSSIBLE to live without risks, hell, all the life in earth could be gone inside 1 minute from now. You could get a heart attack inside 1 minute from now. Your family member could be a terrorist and shoot you inside 1 minute from now.

This wise Chinese quote I read taught to be moderate in everything.

Eating also causes obesity. It's about managing.

I think people need to look up the definition of Cancer.

You're missing a question mark, but yes, it is. By definition.

Sometimes i wonder if you genuinely think this stuff is profound Satellite.

The first post looks like some kind of email I'd receive in my spam folder. It's also making me hungry.

Why is this in the Rubik's Cube?

Yeah I need some complex math in am RC thread. This is speakeasy at best.

I like dust bunny's comment.

not sure if you men tioned it, but going outside causes cancer

Stupidity causes brain cancer, which is funny because brain cancer causes retardation.

"careers for women"

...what?

funnily enough, MSG isn't on that list.

Cancer is natural guys, really. You could be a fucking hermit living in an air filtered room all your life and still get Cancer. There are many things that encourage it, too. But you have to look at it like a chance. You have a small chance of walking outside your door and dying on the spot. But for the vast majority, many of us never will.

Can all be done statistically... e.g. assuming human DNA polymerase non-fidelity rate at something like 10^-15, and do that for all somatic cells, and do that for an entire lifetime, not even taking mutagens into consideration... You WILL die of cancer if nothing else kills you first, in the average long run.

Life is a sexually transmitted disease, with 100% mortality rate.

Most stupid statement I ever read in the freaking rubik's cube... It's wrong in so many ways I don't feel the need to explain it.

Pretty much. And, on top of that, he's probably going with the assumption that most Terrorists originate in the Middle East or are affiliated with those Terrorists. Terrorism can apply to anything that opposes any government or public body. It isn't really a non-biased viewpoint.

#1 cause for cancer is living? You mad humans?

I pretty much agree with this. In the past cancer wasn't a big thing because most people already died of epedemics, wars, diseasters and other stuff before reaching an age where cancer is common nowadays. Researchers at some point looked at about ten-thousand mummies, and only a few were found to have cancer. Most of those mummies died at age 50 and below, which most people did back then.
I don't have an English version of the article - but I do have a Dutch link. (You can probably find an English article by Googling for 'cancer' and 'mummy'.)

Ehhrm... I'm sorry but what are we supposed to disccuss?

I don't care if I die now or tomorrow or in 5 yearsd because of cancer. Also, yes, who wants to live over 70 or 80years?

Where did this "list" come from because I'm fairly certain a crap ton of those DONT cause cancer...

No. Terrorist =/= rebel.
