My advice to you is to go to your local ER and hang out in their XRay suite.Do that day after day after day for several years - maybe even decades.Then see if you develop cancer or not.If so - then you were correct. If not - well, then stand there some more.

If they do then someone need to sue the Sun, since it has been firing ionized radiation at us for thousands of years! There is no such proof, you sound like an ambulance-chaser to me!

You cannot get definitive proof. Ionization is the process where the charge is changed in an atom. This may or may not change the properties of the gene effected.How do you prove genetic mutation was from artifical radiation, background radiation, free radicals in the air or food, etc? Having said that it is highly suspect that exposure to ionizing radiation may cause cancer.This is true with all cancers. You cannot definitively prove that something will cause cancer. Like smoking, the mutation introduced may not initiate cancer. However, more exposure may cause that unlucky mutation that starts the process.
