How a person can kill another person: it is when they do not see them as a person, they see them as an object. But even a stone attracts reverence when it becomes personal.

Cancer Update from Johns Hopkins:  1. Every person has cancer cells in the body.. These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few billion.

Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime.  3.
