Re: If you believe it... Obviously if all EMF radiation caused illness, the causal link would have been noticed and verified long ago. If it were even a lesser but still definite relationship like "all EMF radiation of a certain frequency always causes a certain health effect", that too would be relatively obvious and detected and verified by now.
So if you're attributing such simplistic positions to those you criticize, you're either setting up a strawman or mistaking what it is they suggest. The idea is something more like subtle or long-term effects in susceptible individuals, from certain kinds of exposure. This kind of possibility has not been ruled out.
I'm not claiming that such a hypothesis is correct. All I'm saying is that it's illogical to reason, "everyone is exposed to radio waves all the time, and most people don't get cancer, and in those who do it is often traceable to other causes - therefore all EMF radiation is always safe for everyone". |
