Talk to joe 2016

What the Dickens are you on about?

I’ve never seen myself live past 45. Wouldn’t mind it either.

As a wise man once said to me when I asked who wants to live till they are 100? A man who’s 99.

Explain Maradona and Ronaldo to me.

The two greatest players to play in the past 40 years of football. They didn’t look after themselves yet they were the best players in the world. A lot of things in life are natural. It was natural in them and that can’t be replicated

You could be the most carefree guy in the world with utter contentment, a guy who looks after himself and treats his body like a temple and you could contract a terminal illness like that and be gone way before your time.

On the other hand you could be a hellraiser who touched every harmful substance known to man, put himself in emotional turmoil, battled addictions and physical harm all throughout his life and live a very long life.

Somethings can’t be explained, that’s just life. The one thing we do know about cancer is that we don’t understand it.

You are doing what you do best, passing comments and conclusions which you deem infallible on things you know nothing about.

I realise its gard for people like you to look at things holistically. But i never said i know it all. I just pointed out some of the beliefs w have on many things are deeply flawed.

You have just proved i know a hell of alot more about than you.

I already mentioned genetics is often a fetermining factor.

But those 2 examples are hilarious.

Did Maradona not need a heart operation anyway?

Ridiculoys examples and we don’t know how they will turn out yet. The fact that they were content and happy may be the reason they have not croked. Their sporting ability is somethi g we see externally though. Cancers generally arrive internally before we have any idea.

there is No evidence that stress affects your chances of getting cancer.

im genuinely sorry for the losses you outlined, however it was poor lifestyle that most likely was the cause of their cancer.
blaming their poor lifestyle on stress and then blaming stress as the cause of their cancer is inventive ill give you that.
if we are to appoint stress as the cause of cancer in the scenario you outline then why stop there.
Along with stress, the other suspects would be education or lack of it, stubborness, lazyness, gluttony, addiction, poor environment etc

but there is NO evidence that stress affects you chance of getting cancer.

Yes there is.

Genetics is probably a greater baromter.

But all those things you mention, they all contribute of course.

But stress leads to anxiety and fatigue which leads to poor health choices which if you are genetically susceptible can lead to diseases and sicknesses of all sorts.

agian, id love to hear about it. if you have time that is,.

Read up on it. Just take a few different views.

Then think critically about what people have to gain from those views or indeed studies.

Then think again.

What do i have to gain from this viewpoint? Absolutely nothi g really within this forum.

if you have the proof that ‘stress is the main cause of cancer’ and post it here id love to read it kev

Maradona played at the top level of football when he was a coke head who never trained. Blows your preparation spiel completely out of the water.

The same with Ronaldo.

You don’t know more than me, the difference is I don’t proclaim to have cracked cancer whereas you do while tying yourself in knots.

Ronaldo is a coke head?

No but he was a fat bastard who banged trannies.

No it doesn’t. It shows they were genetically gifted. Some people break the rules.

Besides, Ronaldo was injured alot.

Physically they grew up in perfect places to become injury ressiliant, they played in the streets and on beaches.

Modern life in ireland is alot different.

More nonsense.

Maradona broke pretty much every rule in how a footballer should prepare yet he was able to excel at the top level of the game pretty much injury free for the majority of his career. He just had it, he was born with it.

It was nature with guys like Ronaldo and Maradona. You talk about lads getting injured because they don’t prepare properly which is utter tosh. You have guys like Maradona who throw the rulebook out the window and never got injured and then you have lads who take every precaution they have to protect themselves but still fall foul.

It’s just nature, something you don’t accept. Some things are outside of your control and even if you prepare yourself as best you can there is nothing you can do.

You are really dumb

Nature? As in natural selection?

Nature as in mother nature, as God intended.

:joy:
