Insurance companies have influenced our culture way too much. Here is an article that I have found that smoking does not cause cancer. And its amazing how numbers are gathered for this lie that has been part of our lives. Anyways criticize me if you want, but its really crazy when you start doing the reserach. As ludicrous as that is, the medical and lay press is littered with such pabulum and gobbledygook. Even as web literate physician, it took me over 50 hours of internet time to find enough raw data to write this article. I went through thousands of abstracts and numerous articles, only to find two articles that even questioned the degree of correlation between smoking and lung cancer (British lung cancer rates do not correlating to smoking rates)19,20 and another two articles which questioned the link between second hand smoke (passive smoking) and lung cancer.21,22 Everywhere I looked, the information was hidden in terms like odds ratio, relative risk, or annualized mortality rate. Most doctors probably could not accurately define and interpret them all these terms accurately, let alone someone outside the medical profession. The public relies on the media to interpret this morass of data, but instead they are given politically correct and biased views. smokescreens.org/lungcancer.htm
