@feelgoodtale My heart aches for you. Prayers that his treatment is successful, strength and courage as you navigate this journey, and peace and comfort.
Answering it immediately as it's better if more people get to know. The answer is C.
Let’s break down the science and bust those other massive myths.
• First, cell phones and microwaves DO NOT cause cancer. They emit non-ionizing radiation, meaning they physically do not have enough energy to damage your cellular DNA.
• Deodorants are also a myth; there is no solid evidence linking antiperspirants to breast cancer.
• But drinking beverages hotter than 65°C (149°F) is a completely different story.
When you constantly drink piping hot tea or coffee, you cause repeated thermal injury to the squamous epithelium (the lining) of your esophagus. Your body constantly has to heal these micro-burns. This chronic inflammation forces rapid cellular turnover. The faster and more frequently your cells have to divide to repair the damage, the higher the chance of a genetic mutation occurring during that division.
Over time, this repeated thermal trauma can lead to Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma. In fact, the WHO's International Agency for Research on Cancer classifies drinking very hot beverages as a probable carcinogen.
You don't have to give up your morning tea or coffee....just give it 5 minutes to cool down. Your food pipe will thank you!
@stretchyWombat@PocketBree I know the feeling. Sending prayers of strength, comfort and, and clarity. You will eat through this and you will be able to look back and see the why. 🙏🏻
Consider these words from 1920, written by French author Hilaire Belloc:
“The modern world imagines that it has outgrown religion. It has done nothing of the kind. It has merely forgotten it. And because it has forgotten it, it no longer understands itself. Men do not realize that the whole framework of their moral judgments, their political habits, and even their intellectual methods were formed within a Christian society and cannot exist long outside it. When that framework breaks, they will not find themselves enlightened, but bewildered; not free, but enslaved; not rational, but confused.”
If You're a Patriot…
This Song Will Break You
🇺🇸 THE ONES WHO STOOD
⚠️ WARNING: You WILL get emotional.
If you've ever loved someone who wore the uniform…
If you've ever stood at a grave in Arlington…
If you've ever held a folded flag and whispered "thank you"…
This song is for YOU.
🎖️ THE ONES WHO STOOD — A country tribute to every American
soldier who fought, bled, and gave everything so this nation
could stand for 250 years.
Before the fireworks — there was sacrifice.
Before the anthems — there were boots on frozen ground.
Before the celebrations — there were coffins draped in
red, white, and blue.
This song is for the ones who never came home.
For the mothers who held a folded flag.
For the veterans carrying scars they'll never show.
And for the men and women standing guard RIGHT NOW
So we can celebrate this Fourth of July...

I think it is both an experience and language that makes it hard for them not to be able to write or utter what was said. This made me think of when Christ came to the Nephits (3 Nephi 19) and he was preparing the disciples having them pray and them becoming sanctified. The multitude didn’t understand the words, but they understood what was being said:
31 And it came to pass that he went again a little way off and prayed unto the Father;
32 And tongue cannot speak the words which he prayed, neither can be written by man the words which he prayed.
33 And the multitude did hear and do bear record; and their hearts were open and they did understand in their hearts the words which he prayed.
34 Nevertheless, so great and marvelous were the words which he prayed that they cannot be written, neither can they be uttered by man.
🔴 I normally never ask people to share my content, but this one is important, so please share:
I have just stumbled across a huge smuggler network on Tiktok. It's insane.
They openly post their phone numbers and advertise their "services" on the platform, getting thousands of likes and replies full of prospective illegal immigrants. This includes forged passports, so called safe routes into Europe, and food/drinks and rooms to sleep on the way.
It's a massive operation.
Smugglers film the men they're smuggling, ask them if they're "happy customers", and boast about the accommodation and food provided while they do their smuggling.
The migrants are mainly Afghan men, as are the smugglers. Many obtain fake Iranian passports, which is why many "Iranian" criminals in the West are actually Afghans with fake identities. They arrive in the West presenting themselves as Iranian, so that when many of them commit rape and murder, it gets falsely pinned on Iranians.
Once again, illegal immigration is a BOOMING BUSINESS on Tiktok, and nothing seems to be done to stop it.
They're so confident and secure in their operation that they're not only literally using Western social media to facilitate this - they post their own contact info and expect nothing to happen to them.
Tiktok and social media giants have a responsibility to shut this down. The invasion of the West is being advertised on Western platforms and apps.
It's MADNESS.
