Tobacco Is The Cause

Posted Sep 17 2009 10:31pm 4 Comments
It has lately been found, after long years of exhaustive research, that cigarette smoking is the cause of most evils in the world--sickness, famine, multiple sclerosis, mental retardation, non-amusing situation comedies, the Holocaust, among others.

"It's simply amazing," one researcher commented, "that this could have been so simple all along, and we just didn't see it. I saw a guy light up the other day, and the next thing that happened was full body paralysis."

Lung cancer is now passe, and may be, in fact, the one thing that cigarette smoking does not cause.

"We're looking at everything from autism to xenophobia, from the traffic accident to the Asian flu, and always the cigarette comes up guilty."

Exactly how tobacco has become the most powerful disease since original sin is not yet fully understood, even while billions of dollars continue to be applied to the eventual solution.

"It used to be that we thought masturbation was responsible for most physical and social ills, but no more. That was the dark ages--this is now."

Tobacco causes 87 percent of lung cancer deaths and has been strongly linked to cancers of the esophagus, bladder, pancreas, stomach, colon, cervix, liver, and kidney. If current patterns continue, 25 million Americans alive today, including 5 million children, will die prematurely from smoking related diseases.

My father, mother, and brother all died of cancer.  None of them smoked.  Lets face it, we contract something fatal the day we are born.  It is called, ironically enough, life.
On a more serious, less cavalier note, I would point out World Bank and World Health Organization statistics showing that some of the highest per capita smoking nations in the world (significantly higher than the US)--nations such as Japan, China, Greece, etc., have at the same time the lowest rates of lung cancer (in Japan, for instance, 0.5% for males, 0.2% for females. The rates are similar in China, another of the highest smoking populations).  From these statistics we know, at the very least, that people in China and Japan do not often die from smoking.  It's something to think about--as far as I'm concerned, anyway.  What's going on here?  Who is fooling us, and why?
what about aflatoxins which causes liver cancer, red meat and processed meat which causes colon cancer, sugary drinks and body fat which causes many cancers.
