X-Men, mutation and secret to live forever

Hurricane

This is the first day of the Atlantic Hurricane Season. The prediction suggest that there will be about 5 hurricane that will reach catagory 4 or higher. Remember Rita and Katrina last year?
Well, I got some can food, health bar, torch light, batteries and first aid kid ready.
X-Men

Any how, let get to the X-Men-The Last Stand.
Got to watched it on Sunday.
I must say, I have mixed feeling from this one. You see I am a big Uncanny X-Men and the X-Men series fan. To see all the comics characters on the same screen is a thrill but to see them die like flies... not so cool. It is the end of a trilogy.

Movie critics complained about the absent of emotional in the movie... the first and second movies of the series are about the introduction of the characters... this my dear, is the resolution. It's a nice movie, good action sequences. Big idea and absolute solution.

The story is a continuation of X2, as human became afraid of the mutants, they decided to find a "cure" and did so... Well, don't worry, that fact was established in the first 10 minutes... I will not go on with the movie but with another story that came to my mind a few years back.
Mutation and cure?

Every single day, we are facing with the problem of mutation and we are fighting them with every ways possible, including chemotherapy, surgery and radiation. Yes, it's call Cancer, a mutated group of cells in our human body.

If Darwin was right about evolution of living species (natural selection), Cairns was right about Directed mutation (we choose which mutations to produce in the face of environmental stress), then won't curing Cancer a hindrance to the betterment of the human species? Are we in the way of evolution? Species that do not evolve... tend to... emmm... how should I put it,... Dodo... extinct!
Everlasting Life?

We grow and life because of cell division. The cells in human body copy themselves and multiply, that's how we grow bigger. The computer in our body also decides when to stop such activity and then decides when to cell quiencence (cell death). That's how we grow old.

Cell division... they sort of copy themselves like a photocopier machine does, and like the machines they do make mistakes, and when that happends a process called apoptosis occured. The error cells commit suicide.

Now here's the strange part. If the cell "refuses" to commit suicide, it become a mutated cell, a cancer, if it's malignant. It will multiply and conduct cell division with the same error cloned. In another words, Cancer cells are a group of cells that have refuses to die... ironically, by refusing to die and trying to spread (this idea) to the rest of the human body, they will also kill the whole.

If only one day, we can live will all cells being cancer cell, then we would live forever... wouldn't we? But then again, I am no doctor... just another lower middleclass Joe.
