1. You should take it from my comment that I am saying that you are delusional if you think you are feeling things from cell phones. Now, Im not irrational enough to totally rule out the possibility that people could perhaps “feel” “something”, but the fact that you seem to draw conclusions so fast that it is RF and that the younger generation can’t feel what you feel, coupled with the fact that you seem to be an advocate for acupuncture tells me that you are unable to discern confirmation bias from the placebo effect.

2. In short, RF and EMF is the same thing.

3. Im not insulting your partner as a person, Im insulting the fact that charlatans like acupuncturists, snake-oil salesmen, and quack doctors prey upon weak minded people who are desperately hoping for the miracle cures that are peddled to them every day. It is no different than psychics who tell the families of murder victims that their loved one is floating in the river or faith healers getting peoples grandparents to throw away their prescriptions.

4. You can see the world anyway you want. The Flat Earth Society needs your help! So to answer your question, I’d say yes, my worldview is based upon principles that are more scientifically valid than yours. Im no longer willing to respect other peoples’ idiocy when they insist on spreading it around like the plague.

5. So basically, you will trust pseudosciences without question, but will be a skeptic when it comes to what the FCC says about RF Safety. Why be worried at all about the harmful effects of electromagnetic fields when you could just cure it with acupuncture, homeopathy, or naturopathy? Problem solved!

His son (my friend) is also an acupuncturist, which may or may not be mitigated by the fact that he's also a Naturopath. I suppose it depends on whether or not you consider Naturopathy a form of 'quackery' or not. Hmmm, my spell check doesn't include 'Naturopath' so it's immediately suspect...
6. So, you post an ambiguous article and try to legitimize it claiming that you have secret knowledge, therefore your argument is credible. Why not pull up an article that provides ANSWERS instead of one intended to make people have more questions???

7. Again, you can look at the world any way that you want. But you are doing a disservice to other people who are trying to weed through the bullshite to find real facts when you come on here and propagate nonsensical, anti-scientific misinformation. If you want people like me to not find your mysticism offensive, then gather everyone you know and start your own country where you can have your own science, your own medicine, and your can-and-string communications network and when you all die of diseases that we cured eons ago because you reject vaccinations, then we won’t have to listen to your henny penny nonsense anymore and we can move on as a species.

Chemistry can explain every physiological process that occurs in every cell of your body. Perhaps you would prefer Alchemy.
Okay, scratch all of the above. If you can feel the effects of radio transmitters, why not take the James Randi challenge? He will give you a million dollars if you can prove it.
We will hide transmitters in a bucket. If you can demonstrate this superhuman ability to detect cell phones in a bucket, they you can walk away with a cool million.
