Your reading comprehension of your own link sucks. Beside the fact that it's a quack website, the actual statement says the ACS acknowledges that no large scale studies have been performed proving the success of screening colons.

That is not the same as saying the acs acknowledges screening colons aren't needed.

Some obvious things don't need billions of dollars in experimentation to prove what common sense can tell you.

But nice job twisting words Tuba Jr.

That's funny, Samson, because I've never personally seen you lay a glove on anybody.

Uhhh...no you didn't. You made up information and took information from sites that skewed information to fit their already held position.

Honestly, this isn't even worth my time.

If you believe that there are 70,0000 (not sure what that is anyway) deaths or serious complications from colonoscopies yearly, you aren't worth the effort.

It was not the exact same thread, and I clobbered everybody.

Posters made you look like a fool in that thread. You're well on you way to it happening again with this thread.

I'm still waiting for you to provide a link to the ACS saying colonoscopies don't save lives.

However, I don't need a link to know colonoscopies DO save lives.

A colonoscopy detected my colon cancer early and I'm still here 8 years later. Without that colonoscopy in 2006 and with the type of tumor I had in my colon, I would likely have died 5 years ago, saving many posters on the Poli Board a lot of angst......

It really is scary when half-wits like Samson think they are smarter than doctors because some blogger told them pineapples will cure cancer.

Guy next to me with colon cancer vomits on me, I won't get colon cancer. Guy next to me with Ebola vomits on me, I am pretty much fricked.

So, more American Citizens have died at the hands of Teddy Kennedy than ISIS and Ebola combined.

Interesting.

Sorry but those websites don't look remotely legit.

I would really like to see evidence supporting your claim that 70k are killed or seriously injured annually from colonoscopies.

Not quite. ISIS has killed Americans, just not within the U.S.

How old were you at this time? What lead you to the colonoscopy?

It was discovered by my first ever colonoscopy that my doctor had been advising me to have. I finally took his advice. I was stupid to wait as long as I did.
