What are you trying to say? Take a minute to think it out clearly and try again please.

The radiation in space is intense enough to kill an unprotected, unshielded human being after long-term exposure. However, with a small amount of shielding and a short residence time, humans can survive in even the most intense regions of radiation, with no short- or long-term problems.
It is clearly obvious to the most casual observer that humans CAN live in space -- **IF** they are protected properly. That means some kind of structure that provides them:
* Containment for a breathable atmosphere
* Shielding from the radiation
* Insulation from the intense cold of space
The International Space Station does this, the Space Shuttle does this, the Apollo missions did this -- it really isn't all that difficult.
So, now that we've debunked your "question", what were you trying to ask?

Well, the Russians have the space endurance record, at over 400 days in space.
And, we've continuously manned the ISS for 7 years now. So... I think you're wrong.

It's true conditions in space are pretty harsh and radiations are on really high levels. But with appropriate shielding, living there is possible. By shielding I mean domes (over areas), or individual costumes.

Astronauts fly in space all the time and they are not dying from radiation. That is what I think.

Behold! The ramblings of a conspiracy nut! Thanks for sharing. The moronic ramblings of those that claim the moonlandings were a hoax seem so much clearer now that I can see what goes on in your brains...
