Man, starting from the top of your post - the wheels just fall off your logic and yet you are so sure of yourself.
“if they caused cancer, we’d all be dead” Where did you get that? There are countless cancer causing agents that are not 100% lethal? Radiation, in particular, has a bell shaped curve effect on human health. A rule of thumb coming from the expertise of those who treated Chernobyl victims is that 10% of the population is highly sensitive to exposure, 10% is highly resistant to harmful effects of exposure, the rest are in the middle of the curve surviving or sickening or dying based on immunity, age, treatment etc. Take extreme, immediate exposure like the men in the control room at Chernobyl, about 7 or 8 died grisly deaths and one guy recovered and went on to live a long life. He’d also been exposed to radiation before on a Russian sub and he came through that too. Many of the effects of radiation exposure in the Ukraine fall short of death but result in poor health and suffering. So no, there’s no logic to the statement that these items would have caused us all to die. No truth at all.

You are apparently unaware of the reasons we all must sign liability wavers when we receive dental xrays or other radiologic services. The BEIR reports documenting decades of medical studies involving radiation and cancer will help you come up to speed on cancer in human populations. Happy reading.

As I’ve pointed out to you MULTIPLE TIMES the sun constantly bombards us with electromagnetics, the planet envelops us in an electromagnetic field. If they were fatal, life couldn’t possibly exist.

And now you’re conflating radiation and electromagnetics. You’re all about the bad comparison. Meanwhile, back in reality, this issue has been proven, and any that think cellphones cause cancer are quite simply stupid.
