Re: Marijuana Linked to Aggressive Testicular Cancer

Maybe you should read what you're posting thoroughly..
Do you understand what the word fabricated means?

Wow that's a great hypothesis, guess what? Alcohol use, fast food consumption, narcotic use (such as cocaine, heroin, etc.), and over-exposure to various hormone-affecting things (such as florescent lights) has also increased!
Children are experiencing puberty at extremely young ages never before seen in history.
That is what happens when you introduce thousands upon thousands of new chemicals into a human's lifestyle.
Yes, I already pointed out how dumb her statement was. Please read through the posts in this thread.

Wow that's a brilliant study. Study 1000 men in the same region with testicular cancer, see if they have smoked marijuana and then conclude that marijuana must be the cause of the cancer? How come they have shown no scientific proof in this article about how they reached the conclusion that it was marijuana alone and not alcohol and smoking habits?
Please show me where in the article they concluded that mariuana must be the cause of the cancer. Hint: It didn't.


Quote:
If you actually read the article carefully..
There was no actual link between marijuana ALONE and testicular cancer!
Wow amazing!
What's your point? I never claimed anything contrary to this.

Quote:
And for your point on marijuana containing carcinogenic agents..
Well you're wrong there too.
That only applies to marijuana SMOKE.
Smoke contains carcinogens obviously..
The marijuana itself does not.
If you intake cannabis without smoking it you will get no carcinogens.
(Edibles or Vaporizer)
True, but the vast majority of people, myself included, are smokers.

So please, don't post radical claims like this without actually looking into the claim.
Which claim did I make that was radical?
