I think we'd be pretty concerned if humans were infecting each others outdoors from a city block away. But it doesn't sound like it was spread cat to cat if they think it was the food - seems like it wouldn't have mattered ho

Why do you think science has any obligation to track with your own personal morals, is concerned with agency, or has anything at all to do with "souls?" Science is about understanding the how and why of things, on a factual basis.

It's actually not, because lifelong exposure to known carcinogens is actually very similar to slowly overeating and gaining weight. Do you eat grilled meat? Enjoy your PAHs and HCAs - if you ever get cancer, seeking treatment is going

No one here is stating that physics stops working for fat people. Obviously, your body needs an energy source to function and when you deprive it of that energy source it will go to your energy reserves. There might be some woefully ignoran
