The truth is that soy was found to increase risk of pancreatic cancer in rats, but this has not been found to occur in any other animals (or humans).
According to the Wikipedia the only conclusive effect of soy on humans so far is on the thyroid gland. Though based on what I can tell, the only source Wikipedia cites for this statement is a news article. I would prefer to see an actual scientific journal reference myself.
