Blame? Correlate maybe. Age correlates with cancer pretty well too. DO we
balme age? Most people _don't_ get colon cancer eating similar foods to
those who do.

Besides blaming diet for colon cancer implies that colon cancer would be
"cured" by "proper" diet. This certainly hasn't been established.

>"Trite" is not a word normally used when speaking of cancer survival.

Obviously, I was being sarcastic.

I believe there is plenty of honest research happening. If anybody finds
_any_ method with a 95% cure rate for cancer (Aajonus' claim) it will not
be ignored by the media or researchers. Corperate greed is part of the
world but it is hardly the only thing going on in it.

Perhaps we need to learn a new way of dying more than anything else.

There is plenty of harm in the name of cure happening in the field of
alternative diet and alternative medicine. Indeed, I wonder how it would
compare (in suffering) to much of the buffoonery happening in mainstream
medicine if the atlernative were somehow the mainstream. If fruitarianism
was the mainstream healing method you can bet there would be plenty of
suffering.

Most everything makes sense within the confines of its own paradigm. Both
the Gerson Therapy and bribing researchers with perks.
