Why do some people get cancer?

[Malkom]

Cancer can be compared to a democracy, where there's individualization and fragmentation. Some cells have decided they're better than others and have their own minds, they've discovered God and know their own path, hahahaha. Although our body is a complete dictatorship. Power unites and strengthens. Contrary to popular belief, dictatorship and dominance do rule in nature. This is all a figurative comparison, not a literal one.

Furthermore, cancer is a general term; there are many types. For example, there's small cell carcinoma, which is the most unpleasant; lung cancer is one of them. Melanoma is considered the most dangerous cancer because it metastasizes extremely quickly.

Cancer treatment lies in the field of gene therapy, but it's notoriously underdeveloped worldwide. Because of all these activists who have neither brains nor intelligence, but shout louder than anyone else. I'd burn them at the stake.

Furthermore, there are a number of studies showing that a weakened immune system influences the development of cancer. Weakening the immune system is caused by stress, lack of sleep, and other factors. The key here is immunity. But not all stresses are the same; some types of stress are beneficial, which is a separate topic.

The future lies in gene therapy, not pills. More accurately, pills aren't going anywhere. They'll likely even be individually tailored and even made unique, something only your body can handle, like the precision of a jeweler, a surgeon, or a sniper. But that's a very distant future.

Because they stepped out of the bed with a wrong foot.

It seems that for most tumors, it is just pure bad luck. Our cells are constantly dividing and copying DNA. Occasionally, by pure chance, mistakes happen in important genes that control cell growth. Most get fixed but a few don’t. Over years, if enough of the “wrong” genes are hit, a cell can turn cancerous.

Bad diet, phone/wifi, negative emotions, stress etc. have all been disproven as direct causes of cancer.

But this is the mainstream science view, and we know it can be limited sometimes. Do you believe there is also a spiritual component to it? Something like paying karma from a past life? Or your higher self actually “wanting” this experience to grow through suffering?

You shift a lot of responsibility to your "higher self," but where are you yourself? There is no higher self or lower self. These are all your projections. Your higher self is your positive shadow projection. There is a negative shadow projection, and then there is a positive one. For example, you like some idol, you worship them, they are completely unattainable for you, they are an example for you. In fact, this is your positive projection, it shows who you are, or rather, what you could become, and in general, who you are. There is a negative shadow projection, for example, you don't like homosexuals ahaha, this means that you are homosexual yourself and you are suppressing something in yourself. You need to integrate both the positive and the negative, then you will be complete, that is, YOU ARE.

Ramana Maharshi also got cancer.

Who really knows how this all works.

Hopefully one day we'll have one of those healing machines from the movie Elisium, which scans all ur cells and heals them on the spot.

I think it`s mostly stress.

Cause they do not live in alignment with their natural self. its the simplest way to put it for all disease/disorder in the world today.

There are tons of people who are constantly under stress, eat garbage, etc. and they never get cancer. Even individual genetics account for a very small factor of cancers (you can google the studies).

Then someone who lived well, ate nutritious foods, avoided toxins, gets diagnosed with brain tumor out of the blue. 

Why is that? Is it really just bad luck?

There are three known causes of cancer, at least based on metadata. The first is a weakened immune system. Stress, for example, weakens it, lack of sleep also reduces immunity, and intense physical activity is also stressful (sometimes it's positive and necessary, if not excessive). Don't focus on the stress itself; rather, focus on the immune system; stress itself is stressful. The second is a physical factor—radiation, for example, ultraviolet and gamma radiation (fluorography), if done in large quantities. The third factor is chemical. There are substances that are inherently carcinogenic, such as asbestos. There's no need to panic here; the list of such substances is limited, and in general, they are currently used to a minimum, but this is officially regulated, and it depends on the country.

If you have moles on your body, they're so-called "zombie" cells, meaning they could have been cancer, but instead turned into moles (don't panic here, it's normal). And everyone develops cancer cells every day, but one day the immune system says, "Auf Wiedersehen!" and off we go.

The idea that someone supposedly had normal genetics plus a bad diet and still didn't get cancer is frivolous, as there's not enough honest research.
Moreover, mutations accumulate with age, so the risk of developing it is higher in older people.

And cancer is just a common name. Brain cancer is the most dangerous type of cancer (there are actually several), and it's glioblastoma.

There's probably no point in talking about smoking, as it has a direct link to lung cancer. And usually, everything works on the principle: where it's weakest, it breaks. You might not get cancer, but you will get another disease if you mindlessly exploit your body.

And cancer isn't just a human problem; it occurs in animals too, and, surprise, it occurs in plants too.

Cancer is often genetic, and its treatment and explanation lie primarily in genetics. But that's not all; the emphasis here is simply on it.

Thanks @Malkom this was very useful, I think I found my answer.

Getting cancer boils down to bad luck, BUT you can control how much bad luck. If you live a healthy, toxin-free life, probably 0.001% of getting cancer in your life. If you do shit like smoking drinking eating mcdonalds etc, it can rise to 0.2% let’s say.

Now my question was, why is there still that 0.001%? And I think we can leave that up to God

Theres psychosomatic factors, theres prior health reasons, theres environmental reasons, theres so many reasons that the karmic reasons almost arent important. The things in ur body now , like your historic karma since birth are important because those involve your deep roots, and the roots get tangled and/or they create faults in the tree, like conflicts with others, or lack of sun, or just like, say your an axe-felled green wood tree... you are then the property of some like lumberjack, and that itself is a dilemma, like are we even free in america, who knows, but it would be nice if we could live somewhere and build things such that everyone can play a part, otherwise we are like, working on things to no end, like without a clear direction or goal. Its hard to find a heading on a ship thats like, just sailing for the sake of, but i myself like sailing, doesnt matter where really.

p.s. toxin free living would be a very small change in the grand scheme, as it plays into all the others, as they are all interrelated (or in other words, its all tangled, and the tangling itself doesnt end or begin at toxins)
