somehow i don't think this will lead to much

the days of jonas salk are over. medicine is no longer done for the good of people, it's all business.


Let's just hope that I'm being a nihilistic cynic, as I am most of the time

hahaha as if there will ever be a cure.

theres been a cure for years, they just wont admit it

it's pretty cool actually, now they can work on building drugs that identify the DNA tag sequence that could either remove the protein sequence responsible for a cell to turn cancerous or simply modify it so it becomes dormant "junk data".
I expect a hell of a lot of major genetic diseases will start to be eradicated in our lifetimes, theres some amazing work going on this field.

2-3 months seems a bit optimistic. It'll take 2-3 years just for the major pharma companies to sort out legal wranglings.

everything can and will be cured, let's see who will be given access to cures
not fearing diseases alone can be as big as free energy

For the greater good of man, a cure would be hugely detrimental.

explain...

Seeing as overpopulation is arguably humanities largest problem, curing the main cause of death worldwide (not certain of that, sure I heard it though), would have a slight adverse effect on that.

so you think curing cancer is a bad thing cos more people will be living full, healthy lives as opposed to suffering and dieing before their time?

your fucked up mate

overpopulation and poverty is a serious problem as is, disease is one of natures checks and balances, the more healthy long lives are being lived, the more babies are being born etc
be nice if they did find a cure though

take a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_co ... population

summing up the earth's problems as not enough people dying from cancer is fucked

yeah cos when i was watchin my mate suffer and die in a 2 year battle with cancer, in the back of my mind i was thinking "at least theres 1 less person in this over populated world"

i'd say the summary is more a general population boost with longevity of the populace increasing resulting in a decline of resources available which ends up further increasing the split between the have and have not
disease (be it cancer or any other mortal ones) is one of those checks and balances that keeps getting phased out.

as if anyones even arguing against a cure for cancer. your chattin bullshit deadly

i never said it's a bad thing christ
i was expanding on what wubstep said

and of all people to post this, alien pimp... you'd figure he'd realize there is too much profits at stake in corporations and drug companies to see a cure come out.

i could argue that the problem with the world is short-sightedness and not overpopulation. i could argue that people living longer more prosperous lives would lead to better leaders who have true wisdom and superior guidance.
