I too am shocked and dismayed when I see pro-GMO = Science! trotted out. It's not just the health ramifications, which are far too important to just risk. It is also the scientific proof that GMOs do not increase yields, are less resistant to drought and disease, and flood the soil and food supply with glycophosphates which is poisoning the ecosystem and creating resistant weeds. Not only that, the seeds are patented and not allowed to be planted the following year or shared by farmers, leading to huge debt and bankruptcies. Thousands of farmers in India were fooled by the corps to plant the seeds with promises of increases in yield. But the truth was just the opposite, and when they learned they had to keep purchasing the seed every year, they lost everything and many commited suicide.

There are so many reasons why GMOs should be rejected. And yet we have a few dedicated posters who call us all Luddites for opposing them. Strange days indeed.
