I'll assume you're just replying to the post and not me directly.  I have reservations but I'm pro GMO.

I have to take issue with your example though.  Firstly, there's no world food shortage at present, there's enough food for all of the people in the world to eat.  People are malnourished because the distribution of the food is poor (your average US/UK resident being a good few pounds heavier than you're typical Sudanese).  Secondly, I don't think the time effort and money that has gone into developing this saline resistant crop is being done to benefit the poor and hungry - I think it's being done to allow corporations to use cheaper land to continue mass producing food for us 1% to order as a side dish.  After all, we're the one who can afford to pay (though I'd love to be wrong about this).

I'll freely admit I'm ignorant about the subject, but I'm not ignorant to how the world works.  There may be a few researchers here and there who have altruistic motives with the GMO development, but bringing anything to mass production requires money.  Few bodies exist with the money and motivation to spend on something with 0 financial benefit to themselves.

I'm sorry, but I don't think this is something which is being done to solve third world problems, it's being done to benefit first world wallets.  I would genuinely love to be wrong about that though (and if you can provide any proof of the less well off benefiting, please share it - I could do with a bit of positive news).

With regard to GMO safety, a large, two year-long French study conducted by Seralini and colleagues published in the journal Food and Chemical Toxicology (Volume 50, Issue 11, November 2012, Pages 4221–4231) showed that rats fed Monsanto’s Roundup Ready GMO corn suffered high rates of fatal cancers.

Approximately 50 percent of male rats and 70 percent of female rats died in the study. Prior to the publication of the study, the only published results of animal studies concerning GMOs were based on experiments run for no longer than 90 days. The researchers in the French study saw exponential increases in animal cancers after the 90-day period.

In all food safety reviews, rat feeding studies have been considered by officials to determine whether or not foods and food ingredients should be allowed in the food chain. Without question, the Food and Chemical Toxicology study casts a harsher light on DNA-engineered foods, and proves a need for science conducted by independent researchers, rather than by the GMO makers themselves.

These apes need to take a step back and not try to be God before they have the required wits for it.

Jesus dude, you posted a study which has been totally discredited, and when it's pointed out it's been discredited you post a video about it?

You're not willing to listen are you?

This is bullshit...research has been going on for decades in regard to gmos, it is far from an unstudied topic. I'm not going to take sides, but you're probably better off bitching about our food being exposed to pesticides rather than gmos.

I find it suspicious that someone with such few posts is going on such a soap box tirade.

I thought your task was to post juvenile, completely unnecessary comments that contribute nothing to further this topic??



You may go now.
