Wrong. People are born with defects,tiny babies undergoing maybe multiple heart surgeries and congenital anomalies that cause premature death. I suppose you also believe only smokers die from lung cancer. Government propaganda.


Yeah, i did exaggerate a little, in this case the parents were living in sin.

I suppose you also believe only smokers die from lung cancer. Government propaganda.

No, i know for a fact that people has died from lung cancer who has never smoked in their life.

I don,t know if it is propaganda or not because i have never heard such a thing.

I starting to think that if you don’t eat or drink anything and spend your days hidden in your house you will live forever!
Everybody wants to go to heaven but no one wants to die to get there.

I don’t understand why everybody has to drink soda anyway. The occasional home-made lemonade on a hot day, sure. Iced tea, absolutely (though as a Southerner I find it hard to avoid sweetness in iced tea). But drinking all this carbonated chemical glop, whether full of sugar, high-fructose corn syrup, or various sweeteners, is mystifying to me. Yuck. Why even do that?

That isn’t true. Many thin people drink diet soda.

It’s bad for the teeth. I haven’t had any cavities since I gave up sugar (except for rare occasions).

Trouble is, that's not what's in sweetened soft drinks, it's high-fructose corn syrup. But that's sugar isn't it? But it's got a bad name.

I agree with you about the corn syrup. I don't drink it. But you can get Coke made with sugar if you look for it.
