アルコールの常用はマリファナの常用より個人的に良くない。 Wrecked livers, wrecked stomach linings, wrecked cars, mangled bodies, bar fights, wrecked marriages... People on reefer don't get violent. They're too spacey-happy to do anything but laugh at everything, and eat 12 cheeseburgers.

メキシコでの豚インフルエンザの発生は世界的流行になるだろうか？ Depends on who you believe. The WHO is creating a panic way out of proportion to the actual danger. People need to get a grip. This is nothing more than another strain of the flu, which can be fought by keeping a healthy diet (rich in vitamin C), getting exercise, and maintaining good personal hygiene. Unless your immune system is weak to begin with, most people who get this flu will feel sick and miserable for a couple of days, and then they will get better. Get a grip!

There should be limits on the amount of damages awarded in medical malpractice suits. Doctors are just as human as the rest of us. The more people are allowed to collect for "malpractice" - whose definition is broad enough to include an honest mistake or an unforeseeable adverse reaction - the higher our health care costs will go, and the harder it will be to obtain health insurance. This, in turn, will justify the socialization of the health insurance industry, which will, by necessity, keep our taxes high.

男性のペニスの大きさは自信のレベルに影響する。 I hate to say it, but it's true. Those who are well-endowed know they have a, um, marketable commodity, while their shorter-armed bros fear her response when the big moment comes.

豚インフルエンザ発生のマスコミ報道は大げさだった。 Get over it! They're causing a nationwide panic over something that, with treatment, will run its course. The pictures of people wearing facemasks everywhere is ridiculous!

米国はインフルエンザの流行に備えている。 We always have been, because people have something called an immune system that can be easily strengthened through a healthy diet (particularly Vitamin C), and less reliance on drugs. I rarely take pills, and I haven't gotten a flu shot in 10 years. I feel fine!

Pope Benedict's comments about condoms increasing the problem of AIDS in Africa were not accurate. If the Pope is right about that, then smoking can REDUCE your risk of lung cancer!

科学者は風邪のワクチンを発見するだろう。 Not an effective one, as there are so many different strains of the cold virus out there. The good news is that we have something more effective - our own immune system. Once we catch a cold, we can rest assured in the knowledge that we will never again be vulnerable to that same strain of that virus because our immune system will recognize it and be able to fight it off.

アルコール消費量と癌の発生率には関係がある。 Albeit a rather weak one.

コデインは店頭で売られるべきではない。 Codeine is an effective painkiller, but it is also a very powerful narcotic. It is not something to be handled casually, to say the least.

Health insurance should cover laser eye surgery. Not necessarily in full, but partial coverage would be fine.

Children diagnosed with depression should not be treated with medication. Various psychiatric disorders are more commonly diagnosed now than ever before. I have always been adamant that drugs should never be a first option. I suspect (though I can't prove) that the high prevalence of these diagnoses is due to strong influence f

Men and women have roughly the same sex drive. Men are certainly reputed to have the stronger sex drive, so I am leaning in that direction. But then again, since I'm not a woman, I wouldn't know for sure, would I?

死を選ぶ権利は、末期疾患や慢性痛、その他特定な病状にある人に限定されるべきである。 That "other specific circumstances" is disturbing though; it leaves a hole wide enough to drive a truck through, and I don't want to see anyone start to advocate suicide.

生命はその源のために根本的に尊い。 Because it is given to us solely by the grace of God.

米国は単一支払者医療保険制度を導入するべきではない。 That's a dangerous step towards socialism. I wouldn't mind putting a system in place that would allow a person to obtain multiple forms of insurance, like an actual insurance provider along with a supplemental discount provider. Sharing the burden makes m

議会はメディケイドの適格指針を変えるべきだ。 First, you have to be in the country legally. Second, the income limit should be raised.

It is not appropriate to prescribe cholesterol-reducing medicines for children. STOP DRUGGING OUR CHILDREN!! If you're worried about your kid's cholesterol level, try doing a better job of monitoring that kid's diet!

ビタミン剤を取るべきではないとする説得力のある理由はある。 Some. There is such a thing as too much, and some people don't recognize what "too much" is.

精子提供者の身元は匿名のままであるべきではない。 I'm not so sure. I would think sooner or later the offspring will want to know who their father is.

Black cohosh cannot effectively treat menopausal symptoms. Doubtful

Video games do not improve the cognitive brain function in adults over 50.

Exposure to nature can accelerate a patient's healing and recovery process.

Alli (orlistat) is not an effective weight loss pill. There is no magic potion that will quickly trim your middle. That is done through a healthier diet and exercise. It won't happen overnight, which is why it's necessary to learn a little something called patience and perseverence.

The Massachusetts universal healthcare model should be implemented nationwide. With some alterations. This shouldn't be mandatory, but it should definitely be an option. We have medicaid and Medicare, why can't we offer something similar to that on a sliding scale based on income? Why won't the big insurance companies make it possib

顔面移植は当たり前のことにならないだろう。 Just don't tell that to Cher or Michael Jackson.

The Slim Fast plan is not an effective method of losing weight. I've tried it. It doesn't work. Those shakes are gross, and they don't satisfy your hunger the way they say it does.

A bilateral mastectomy is not the most effective long-term solution for women diagnosed with breast cancer. My grandmother had breast cancer and got a double mastectomy, but that didn't help - the cancer still spread throughout her body, and she ended up dying of bone cancer. If it's not caught in its earliest stages, a mastectomy is too little, too late.

There are persuasive non-religious reasons for male circumcision. It reduces the risk of infection in a rather sensitive area, it's cleaner, and I'm told it's more attractive than the alternative.

Low-carb diets are not an effective method of losing weight. Your body needs some carbohydrates for energy. If you want to lose body fat, the first logical step is to cut fat from your diet. As simplistic as this may sound, nothing is converted to fat quicker than...you guessed it: FAT! Carbs are a necessary nutrie

"Third-hand smoke" is not a viable concern. Come on! Enough is enough. The smell of cigarette smoke is not exactly aromatic, but the smell of it on clothes and carpets is nothing more than stink. The FDA and the media need to stop encouraging everyone to become such pansies about everything! I slep

線維筋痛は確かな病状である。 I've met people who have it. I don't know if it's as common as some think it is, or if it's sometimes confused with hypochondria (which some cases may be), but I do think it's real.

A mother should stop breastfeeding her child sometime between 6 months to 1 year. When the child is able to eat real food, breast-feeding is no longer necessary because the child is able to get nutrients through food. By the end of the first year should be the absolute maximum - anything beyond that is just coddling the child too much,

病院の看護士はストライクを許可されるべきではない。 That's about as dangerous as allowing police officers to strike. However, they do deserve more reasonable working conditions, such as a normal work day (8 hours, not 12-16), a normal work week (40 hours, not 80), and a chance to rest. They're fairly well

鍼治療は腰痛に効果的ではない。 It's voodoo in reverse.

Detoxification diets are not beneficial. Bunk. It's basically someone trying to convince people that he's got a magic potion to sell you. On a related note, I'm putting the Sears Tower up for sale for a bargain price of only $20 million! Act fast, supplies are limited! Buy by tomorrow, and I'll

Medical providers should have the right to refuse medical care they find morally objectionable. If a doctor is strongly and unalterably against abortion (as I am), that doctor should not, under any circumstances, be forced to perform one.

ビタミン剤は処方を必要とするべきではない。 Not as long as they're natural vitamins.

セフキノムは牛に使われるべきか？ We don't need to be putting weird unpronounceable chemicals into our food - particularly natural foods like beef and milk. Leave nature alone, please!

食品医薬品局の規制は、特定権益によって影響を受ける。 Of course! That special interest is called money. The FDA does not perform any tests on drugs that companies wish to take to market - the drug companies do the tests themselves, and the FDA simply reviews the results as reported by the companies. Many mem
