This is nonsense as usual.

Fr. Ivo,
I would have expected a Padre like you to say that it all depends on whether
one's name has appeared on St. Pedro's daily computer printout of new guests
for the day, or not.
Your statement above sounds like you think YOU are the medical researcher and
Santosh is not:-))
Even without Santosh's help, if you had even done some minimal research on your
own you would know that some brain tumors are operable and curable, and others
are not. Even common sense should tell you this.
I am happy to report that I am a living example that your statement above is
poppycock and that St. Pedro specifically tasked me with being Goanet's voice
of reason, truth and peace to confound the various Purveyors of Puerile
Prevarication and Sultans of Selective Accuracy that lurk in Goanet's
shadows:-))
BTW, what's going on with you Padres recently - making pompous statements on
subjects you know nothing about, like medicine and economics? First you, then
Pope Benny, now you again?
I don't know why you make authoritative-sounding statements on medicine, after
knowing we have several physicians on Goanet and a medical scientist in
Santosh, who makes a living at researching scientific information objectively
and has provided detailed sources of information on medical subjects.
One may quibble with his infrequently expressed opinions on religion and
politics and the politics of certain aspects of science like what to do, if
anything, about climate change, or what weight he may place on certain facts
and not others, but his scientific facts as a scientific researcher come from
credible sources and it may behoove you to consider these seriously. You may
even learn something even at your advanced status as a seasoned citizen:-))
BTW, after all your strenuous debates - and I use this term loosely - do you
even have the slightest idea who Santosh is? To quote one paragon of selective
accuracy on Goanet, "Perhaps Google can help".
You should also know that his special expertise is in "bird brains" which
should be a warning to anyone who may fit this fairly common condition:-))
