yes candles cause cancer. the wicks are produced from a toxic-carcinogenic substance called frotactaline, to bond the fibers and make them burn well. no candle is meant to be burned in any indoor/inclosed area and realease up to 18x as much toxic/carcinogenic chemicals as a cigar, plus many more in the same area. scented candles are worse because the binding agent to make the aroma solids into smell-able vapors with the heat, realeasing small silicone crystal shards into the air causing harm much like volcanic ash.
