Human beings are the cancer of the earth?

I don't think we need to die out to protect nature.  Why? We're capable of making rational decisions and minimizing our harm.  It's just that we tend to refuse to do anything that inconviences us.  We need more emphasis on sexual education and birth control to stabilize the population, and politicies to mimize pollution and protect the remaining natural environments.

Humans have made huge impacts on the physical environment by logging, farming, building, and really just existing. The problem is the rate of change is accelerating as the population grows exponentially and people become industrialised and require more and more. The earth really cannot sustain this growth in all aspects of people greed and need. There is no easy way to slow it let alone stop it.\n\nAs a planet we are doomed! not tomorrow but before this century is out.

Not exactly. It is more likely that depression and stress weaken your immune system, which then fails to kill cancerous cells. Cells go cancerous in your body all the time, but are killed almost instantly most of the time.

Human are thier own destruction tools by this I mean we are constantly creating thing that destroy our plant by means of technologies and industries that produce things without knowing the long term effects. eg asbestes, benzines, and other elements. For such a smart race we are very stupid or completely ignorant.

The earth is being destroyed by mankind. It won't be overpopulated but drained out by human mischieves. Our duty is to preserve peace and harmony. What a pity...the beautiful earth is a war-ridden ball.

Damn! You are SO CLOSE too...\n\nFrom the dawn of time, humankind has been hated and despised. We've been eaten, crushed, burned, drowned, starved, ravaged by disease and more. Yet humankind has survived, recovered and even prospered. We have expanded from the cradle of civilization, reached the moon and have sent rockets to Mars in the hope of future colonization.\n\nHUMANKIND is the CRABGRASS of the UNIVERSE!

No.  Cancer is a mutation of your body's cells and you can't cause that just by plucking the hairs, no matter how many you pluck.

Most definitely, but not in a paranoid sense. Its human nature, heirarchy, divine right. Humans are a crafty sort, when you group the crafty rich ones together, they realise how much they enjoy their lives walking (or in some cases steam rolling) over humanity. I personally believe that were all being slowly poisoned in one form or another, with the pharmaceutical companies and medical sector to benefit... check out knowmore.org and look at bayer and dow's track record alone... (The part about toxic/carcinogenic chemical legislation is scary) have a bucket and towel handy. But to answer your question less rhetoricaly, the over-population crisis is and has been slowly spiraling out of control without any form of boundaries. What better culprit than cancer to take care of that problem?  (oh, the rate of cancer a hundred years ago compared to now would definitely support that)

Well, cancer is abnormal cells that are growing out of control and will take over healthy tissue and cut off the blood supply.  I have been with three people who died from cancer and it was pretty awful. One brain tumor, one lung cancer and one cancer of the maxillary sinus cavity. \nThe bottom line is that there is abnormal tissue growing where it shouldn't be growing and the body doesn't want it there and it can press on nerves and do all kinds of things to cause pain depending on where it is located. It weakens the body and many times the treatments side effects cause pain too.

God didn't create cancer, He created a world that was perfect.   When sin entered the world things started dying and decaying and getting old and diseased.   It wasn't God, it was satan and man.

There are no (absolutely no) health risks involved with either one. That whole cancer scare was started by a guy whose wife died of brain cancer, and he blamed it on her cell phone. But people who eat carrots also die of brain cancer. And people who drive cars. And people who eat breakfast...  But you can't place blame on just anything. Your phone is safe, and independent research (i.e., by people who have no axe to grind) have shown no correlation.

Humans are part of an evolutionary process of life on this earth. In the grand scheme of things, we can be replaced.\nIt is up to us to make sure that happens in a good way and not in a mutant-bizarro or extinction way.

yes because it produces kind of radiation which may cause genetic mutations that may finally lead to cancer!\nbut this is not occuring usually, the parcentage of its harm is not high so you don't have to worry!

Anything and everything can give you cancer nowadays.
