They’re baffled? Look around. We are swimming in artificially synthesized chemicals. What so hard to understand?

    There was a lot more of that hazardous carcinogenic stuff 50 years ago though. Baby cribs used to be made from asbestos. Every other person was a smoker. Houses were painted with lead. This trend is very very recent.

        there would be a clear geographic distribution of cancers along major highways vs rural areas with little traffic

        which may be happening? not sure if anyone actually tried making a survey along those lines yet; I think currently most of the time a geographic distrubution of cancers is assessed to find chemical leaks e.g. superfund sites

    Why people still make the appeal to nature fallacy, for starters.

    I wouldnt trust my life with doctors, they are no better than religious academics.

    The drug companies know more than them!
