1) Faith in God is good, it transcends one's ego.

2) Be kind, compassionate and do good deeds.

3) Have a good conscience.

4) Be a volunteer.

5) Be careful what you wish for; living forever isn't always pretty.

6) Don't get ahead of yourself by thinking you will live forever; take it one day at a time.

7. Having a baby is good for your immune system and reinforces the existence of God.

8) Live your life and don't fear death; eat what you like.

9) Live a little; have another piece of cake.

I take it that you are preaching all of the above as a cancer prevention regimen. It's not exactly the same as what I would "preach" but I will defend your right to have your own opinions. :thumbup:

I believe I was referring to longevity.......NOT cancer prevention.

I know I was referring to longevity and remembering my Italian grandmother, her children and my own mother........I was not talking about cancer (unless I mentioned that they never had it). Maybe I posted under the wrong post or perhaps the "conversation" got a bit convoluted.
It happens.

We have had dear dear friends and neighbors who passed from cancer and I was "always there" to comfort and support them.

Something has definitely been lost in the translation.

OH, I JUST SAW THE TITLE "FOOD FOR THOUGHT INSTEAD OF CANCER CELLS"...........definitely under the wrong heading.....belongs under LONGEVITY for sure.
