who created "cancer"?

So are you saying that no one has ever had cancer because of smoking, or any other harmful habits ?.
Mainliner can correct me if I am wrong...
i get the impression that he is saying, abeit not very well, that cancer is not something you catch, like a cold or the flu, but that it resides in everyone and that unless it is "triggered" (for lack of a better term), it remains dormant.

For some people cancer is triggered by something in cigarette smoke, for others in sugars, for others, teflon off their cookware, for others artificial sweetners, etc.

Triggered as in a specific genetic mutation that has been successful within a cell.

We must remember that many people are born with certain genetic mutations that cause certains cancers but aren't affected by the mutations. For instance, BRCA1/2 are genes that typically are associated with breast cancer. An individual (predominately women) who carry one or both of these genes has a significantly higher chance of developing breast cancer than someone who doesn't.

Like Mestemia has said, there are many different causations of cancers and we all react differently to these environments. Age, Bodyweight, Immune responses, Viruses, Bacterial Infections &c.

I don't think cancer is sitting dormant in your body, there may be a weakness that if aggravated can turn into caner, or any other disease.

Our genes "create" cancer. Something goes wrong, cellular reproduction goes wrong, it goes haywire, it goes uncontrolled, and the extremely rapid growth we call it a cancerous tumor.

Of course it makes sense, we have to die from something, and look at how many people smoke, eat rubbish and so on, of course we have cancer.
People who never smoke get lung cancer. People who eat right, exercise, and do everything right get cancer, and die every day from cancer. People have smoked for ages, what we consider eating rubbish others consider a normal diet (especially when it comes to grains and meat), and it doesn't matter if you take a hot shower or go polar plunging, cancer happens. As my bass says "EAT RIGHT, EXERCISE LEAVE A HEALTHY CORPSE"

Na, that's just denial, of course if you look after your body better you have a bigger chance of no getting cancer, you don't have to be a medical science to see that.

no one can de-borg my fact's ...NO-ONE!!
I think im happy with the " cancer is an error in the cells splitting" fact :)..... I wonder how god would have created life after knowing these errors could happen .... Maybe he'd have skipped the before life completely and gone straight to the after life ....;) lol

I'm not in denial. I am saying it could happen anyways, so why deprive myself of pleasures? It's like not having a taco today because there could be some risks of eating said taco tomorrow. But because tacos are awesome, and because risk management and reduction consumes way too much time, effort and energy to do more than just a bit of it, I'm gonna eat me a taco.

sarcasim is for the uneducated
If you ask me, sarcasm is for the sophisticated and educated. Not only does the one doing it have to come up with a witty jab, the audience must also be able to realize it is sarcasm. Sarcasm also makes up a lot of what we call comedy, and it's room mates with Irony. Together, sarcasm and irony make up a massive chunk of all comedy, classic, slapstick, contemporary, you just won't find good comedy that doesn't resort to sarcasm and irony.

If an omniscient creator were involved wouldn't He have come up with a simpler, more efficient design?

The omniscient creator didn't have enough time to come up with a more efficient design. The sun hadn't been created yet. Time didn't exist

iv got an idea but its diffecult explain.
but id like to hear what other people think?.........it doesnt make sense why its on earth?
The funny thing is that our cells have a "kill" mechanism. We will die because our cells eventually can't duplicate anymore. Cancer, in general, is when this kill switch stops working and the cells divide uncontrollably. They will cause death because these cells take over. They're "indestructible." In a sense, they're the undying "eternal" cells. They hold the answer to longevity in a sense. Kind'a the opposite of death, but because they're uncontrolled and won't die off, they cause harm to the whole system. Somethin' like that.
