The Problem with Christians

[AAA]

Cancer is ALWAYS the result of cellular defects. There are many proteins responsible for controlling the cell cycle to try to prevent uncontrolled cell growth. But we irresponsible humans have now entrenched ourselves in an environment with man-made carcinogens and mutagens. The genes that code for the controlling proteins mutate, which results in lack of control, which results in cancer. I interpret cancer as a sign that our genome is slowly deteriorating.

Captain Non-sequitur, thank god you're here.

The point was that cancer is caused by cells becoming worse. This implies that (because not getting cancer has historically been the norm) that cells are slowly losing their capacity to function. This means that they were more functional in the past. This means that instead of moving from the bottom up, we are either moving from the top down, or from the bottom, to the top, back down.
