I point out below two absurdities regarding medical cures posted in this forum. The first one demonstrates faulty logic. Here is the relevant quote:
QUOTE Yes, the oncologists could not even prolong his life. That confirms what I said. I find a confirmation in the statement of medical companies themselves about ALIMTA UNQUOTE ....Fr. Ivo Please see http://lists.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet-goanet.org/2009-December/187072.html In the above quote the author wants readers to believe that his unjustified repeated blanket claims of cancer in general being incurable is confirmed by two incidental observations: 1. One solitary anecdote of a terrible and unfortunate suicide of a cancer patient, and 2. A claim by some pharmaceutical company that one of its drugs cannot cure a type of lung cancer that is in an advanced inoperable stage. The author clearly seems unaware of the elementary wisdom that one swallow does not a summer make. The second absurdity satisfies the classic definition of quackery i.e. the pretense by an non-physician "to be able to diagnose or heal people" despite being "unqualified and incompetent" to do so. Please see the following quote: QUOTE I am not a "real doctor", nor "specially trained oncologist" (though I have cured non-cancerous, benign tumours),.. UNQUOTE ....Fr. Ivo Please see - http://lists.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet-goanet.org/2009-December/187072.html A person who is neither a specially trained oncologist nor a real doctor is claiming to have cured benign tumors. People ought to know that, besides needing a qualified oncologist to cure a tumor, whether a tumor is benign or malignant can only be definitively ascertained by a properly trained pathologist.
