"not likely"?? What's that in terms of percentage chance? Please cite

You should reconsider your question!

Mutations are *mutations*. Think about it!

You said...

1. Nuclear radiation is fatal.

2. Solar radiation is probably fatal because it's some kind of radiation
as
well.

...and I asked...

How much is 'not likely'?

You've had a "logic" breakdown. Perhaps you would like to re-phrase your
question?


'Not likely' isn't very precise - how similar are solar and nuclear
radiation in terms of their effects on organisms like humans?

Well, as the sun is powered by a nuclear reaction ...... duh!



You're arguing
by analogy, and I'm trying to determine how valid that analogy is by
asking
you to cite a study which compares solar and nuclear radiation.

We are talking about genetic mutations. Think about it! By definition,
they are random. Why do you think that a "study" would have any bearing on
the subject?


And you tell me that "mutations are *mutations*".

Yes, they are!
