If science proved that cell phones caused cancer like cigarettes...would you quit using the cell phone?
BE HONEST...

They pretty much have proven thay they do, so does Teflon, Aspertame, and most preservatives. However that info is gathered from UK medical sources and is hushed over in the US.
There have already been several suits against companies with people growing brain tumors in the exact spot, shape & size as their cells. The arguement about headless sets is apparently worse, it actually multiplies the cell antenna and draws even more radiation towards your brain. And teenagers without fully formed brains are the absolute highest risk for brain tumors caused by cells. Give it about 5-10 years and we may look back in horror.

Pretty much everything causes cancer, haha. In fact, I'm pretty sure that cell phones DO cause cancer... so I would just try to limit my phone conversations and turn it off when I'm not using it. I still need my phone for emergencies and stuff, and it's probably unlikely that you would get cancer from your phone unless you have it glued to your face and hands 24/7.

I already heard that the rays from cell phone frequencies cause brain damage or something. I can't give up my cell phone because it's the only phone I have, I don't have a house phone.

Actually, they do cause cancer. In fact, nearly EVERYTHING causes cancer. Once you find out microwaves, cell phones, computers and TVs all cause cancer (supposedly) you just kind of learn to accept it. It's very unlikely that someone would actually get cancer from the devices, but it can happen because of the miniscule amount of radiation they all emit. Y'know, being outside causes cancer, but that's not going to stop me from being in the sun (safely, with sunscreen).
No, I have not given up my cell phone.

Yes I would, but there is no 100% evidence that supports the idea that cell phones cause cancer.

Being as cigarette smoking has dropped dramatically, to almost nothing, and cancer hasn't dropped at all, I would tend to disbelieve any cell phone connection. I wonder if there's any connection between people believing this crap, quiting tobacco and getting so fat that blood can no longer flow. That seems like it would cause something.

I wouldn't give it up completely i'd only use it for emergencies but i think thats what alot of people would do but some people are so addicted to their phone they would be on it 24/7 if they had the chance to lol!

Yes I would give it up. But I currently don't own a cell phone so I wouldn't be addicted to it.

If cell phones caused cancer SUN Microsystems is in for a huge law suit, and most of their empoyees will be dead soon...
