(quoted from post at 08:24:22 05/19/16) How many thousand years have we been eating corn? If it wasn't for genetic modification we wouldn't even have corn. But then facts carry very little weight with the Old hippies and the millennial crowd. If you wish to experience complete lunacy, just check out the remarks following any article about agriculture posted in any source that will be read by the general public. Absolutely incredible!
(quoted from post at 14:42:07 05/19/16) Another shocker, a study funded by Ford concluded that Ford makes the best trucks(LOL)
in't that the truth.(quoted from post at 06:18:38 05/19/16) Funny thing is the same folks that swear by how great the science is on GMOs turn around and say how stupid the science is about Global Warming.
(quoted from post at 07:13:00 05/19/16) Who ya gonna believe,scientists or crazy hippy chicks?
(quoted from post at 18:31:20 05/19/16) Isn't the truth or you don't want to believe the truth.
GMO have been around for years and not a single heath issue has been tied to GMO's.
The research was done by the National Acadamy of Sciences.
No seed companies involved.

ell, in an ideal world it might be "good news", but just because GM, Ford and Chrysler have proven that most of their 20 year old cars were safe, doesn't mean that any vehicle anyone (including the big 5) can throw together in their lab will evermore be exactly as safe. Sometimes, like the Pinto, and like Tata air bags, it's the real world use over a period of time that proves they aren't, and not in all cases for all people, but enough to be a concern. The big difference between cars and crops, is that cars currently don't reproduce themselves, nor do we ingest them every day.(quoted from post at 08:51:10 05/19/16) Saw this in the news this week, no ill effects have ever been shown by GMO, and positive effects for environment because of breeding in resistance versus using chemicals.
Now if anyone believes it.
Yes, BT is a naturally occurring soil bacteria whose ingestion by humans in that form has no discernible effects. When that bacteria becomes an integral part of plant proteins, it becomes a whole new animal - something neither our bodies nor the bacteria that inhabit our bodies in greater numbers than our human cells have ever encountered before in that form. Can it cause problems? It's increasingly looking like it might, especially in susceptible people, call them the canaries in the coal mine. Will everyone be affected? Probably not. If you or I are content to take that risk, that's our choice. Everyone else should have equal choice.(quoted from post at 10:08:49 05/20/16)
Also be aware that people who OPPOSE GMO or something else will often do so blindly and out of ignorance. The BT insect killer is natural--do people who oppose GMO BT avoid any food where natural BT chemicals (I think you mean "bacteria") are present? Probably not.
