I was thinking of your magnet theory that everything that attracts can be considered a magnet, and I think you are right. My dogs are attracted to each other and the female dog attracts the male. So from now on I am going to to start calling dogs magnets. THANK YOU SO MUCH for this new way of thinking, come to think of it I am going to call everything magnets, that really is your reasoning, Attraction is the way of life so from now on everything will be known as magents. "hell magnet this is my magnet and this little one is my cute magnet, the magnet is 6 months old, and over there is magnet and I drive a magnet magnet. Magnet magnet magnet."
Marlkar from Marklar maybe those south park guys had it right but got the word wrong.

Big deal. I just use my Blue-Tooth ear piece. Although I've heard that wearing a blue-tooth during an electrical storm can increase your risk of getting struck by lightning.

Radiotherapy treats cancer through a well known effect. It uses ionizing EM radiation.

This ionizes what it strikes, which has a deleterious effect on DNA. It kills cells of all kinds, but especially quickly dividing cells, such as hair cells and gametes. Cancer divides as fast as possible, so it is effected especially hard by ionizing radiation. Radiotherapy kills cancer, but it also kills human cells.

Plans are underway to develop cyclotrons to fire electrons with a specific energy level into the affected area, so that they can be targeted to a specific depth. Electrons certainly aren't EM radiation (for that matter, cancer isn't either. Cancer is malfunctioning versions of YOUR CELLS), they are elementary leptons, yet they'll do just as well as ionizing photons.
Electric charge is a fundamental conserved property of some subatomic particles, which determines their electromagnetic interaction.
In physics, the electromagnetic force is the force that the electromagnetic field exerts on electrically charged particles. It is the electromagnetic force that holds electrons and protons together in atoms, and which hold atoms together to make molecules.

Not only is Vitamin B17 NOT a vitamin (it's makers only claim so, as part of an aggressive marketing strategy.), it has very dubious medical efficacy. It's just repackaged laetrile, which was evaluated and found ineffective against any and all forms of cancer.
Vitamin B17 (Amygdalin, Nitrilosides, or laetrile) – A substance found in a number of seeds, sprouts, beans, tubers and grains. While toxic in large quantities, proponents claim that it is effective in cancer treatment and prevention.

The sun is imporant to life as we're used to thinking of it, and the earth would not have formed had the sun never formed, but if the sun were to simply magically go away, life would continue on earth for billions of years.

Not life on the surface, of course, all surface life would freeze to death, and the oceans would freeze solid. But life is hardier than that. There is life that feeds on chemicals that live around vents at the bottom of the sea. There is life that lives in solid rock which EATS HARD IONIZING RADIATION for energy.

Good luck with your superiority complex, see if it ever helps anyone.
All I know is I have some interesting pea sized polyps under the lobe of my left ear. I am L handed.
Many of the following substances have been referred to as vitamins because they were believed to be vitamins at one time, and they are relevant to vitamin nomenclature in that the numbers that were assigned to them form "gaps" in the series of B-vitamin names. Some of them, though not essential to humans, are essential in the diets of other organisms; others have no known nutritional value.
Reviews of available clinical evidence published in 2006 concluded that the claim that laetrile has beneficial effects for cancer patients is not supported by sound clinical data,[11] or by data from controlled clinical trials,[12] and that there is that there is considerable doubt about its safety.[11]
In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration continues to seek jail sentences for vendors selling laetrile for cancer treatment, calling it a "highly toxic product that has not shown any effect on treating cancer."[22]
Do you understand what you are saying? My argument is that you can kill cancer with magnetism. Then you go and tell me that they use ionizing "eletroMAGNETIC radiation".

NOPE, it would not. There would be no Sun to GIVE life. Your soul, the force, the HEAT around your body is givin to you by the Sun. All LIFE is givin by the Sun. I'm not just talking physical. Go read about Ankhs.
You contradict yourself, and you have no clue what you are talking about. If the Sun did not exist, there would be no "sea" for life to feed on chemicals. Also, you are talking about a fungi that eats ionizing radiation. Well news flash, that fungi can not exist without the Sun, im sorry it would die since the Sun is the prime source for electromagnetic radiation (ionizing radiation). Also, since there is no radiation to make new radiation, they would die, because they would run out of radiation. LOL. Also, that fungi can only exist in high temperatures, not low temps. If the Sun didn't exist the Earth's core would slowly freeze over (hell freezes over), so they would just die.
You are wrong on all accounts. Without the Sun, Earth and all life on it would not exist, or continue to exist without it.

Nothing that makes up a proton carries a charge.
In physics, the proton (Greek πρώτον / proton = first) is a subatomic particle with an electric charge of one positive fundamental unit (1.60217653(14)×10−19 C), a diameter of about 1.65×10−15 m [1], and a mass of 938.272309(28) MeV/c2 (1.6726×10−27 kg), 1.007276466(13) u or about 1836 times the mass of an electron.
Protons are spin −1/2 fermions and are composed of three quarks[2], making them baryons. The two up quarks and one down quark of the proton are held together by the strong force, mediated by gluons.

If it were the suns' heat keeping the earth's core molten, then why isn't the moon's core molten? It's just as close to the sun as we are. Or how about Venus? Or Mercury? They're much closer and hotter. And they're all cold and dead inside.
