Natural disease

edit

I have never heard of diseases being divided into natural and unnatural. This is not a distinction that is used within science. There is really only natural and supernatural. Science deals with the first. Causes for diseases nearly all have both causes due to human influences and causes not due to human influences. It is well known that solar radiation and natural radiation as well as smoking, air pollution, and radiation from nuclear testing causes cancer. On the level of pathophysiology the radiation from human causes is not really distinguishable from the radiation from nuclear testing. --Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 17:20, 24 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
