You respond with an article from an anti-gmo blog.

Oh, and here's a bit of info on your Seralini study:

"In November 2013, Elsevier, the publishing company for Food and Chemical Toxicology, the journal that published the 2012 paper, announced that the journal was retracting the paper, after the authors refused to withdraw it.[6][85] The editors of the journal concluded that, after an in-depth look at the raw data of the study, no definitive conclusions can be reached regarding the role of either NK603 or glyphosate in overall mortality or tumor rates, given the known high incidence of tumors in Sprague-Dawley rats and the small sample size. Normal variance could not be excluded as the cause of the results.[6][86] Séralini and his supporters strongly objected to the retraction,[85][87][88] and Séralini himself threatened to sue Food and Chemical Toxicology.[89] In January 2014, an online petition calling for the Séralini study be reinstated was posted by a group of Séralini's supporters from the Bioscience Resource Project.[90]"

As John Stewart would say, "BOOM!"
