It's the economy (and the politics) that needs to be changed.

Study: Eliminating GMOs would hurt environment, economy [View all] HuckleB Mar 2016 OP

The lead author is from a land grant university. bulloney Mar 2016 #1

And so that changes the research reality? HuckleB Mar 2016 #2

Its easy to attack the premise of the study, which is this: cprise Mar 2016 #7

In other words, you have no actual criticisms of the study. HuckleB Mar 2016 #8

That sounds more like you have no intelligent rebuttal cprise Mar 2016 #10

You made no relevant points. HuckleB Mar 2016 #13

I forgot, ecology is irrelevant. cprise Mar 2016 #14

No one said that. HuckleB Mar 2016 #16

Like I said, Round and Round you go cprise Mar 2016 #17

Your "criticism" is about your world view, and does not address the study itself. HuckleB Mar 2016 #18

OK thanks for demonstrating you don't even know what ecology is cprise Mar 2016 #19

In other words, you really are ignoring reality. HuckleB Mar 2016 #20

LOL cprise Mar 2016 #21

Thanks for the confession. HuckleB Mar 2016 #24

The key to this poster. As if ecology does not exist. immoderate Mar 2016 #28

Another false attack. HuckleB Mar 2016 #29

Attack? I am not aware of any ecological thinking on your part. immoderate Mar 2016 #30

Of course, you're not. HuckleB Mar 2016 #31

Y'welcome. But I'm disappointed you don't have me on "ignore." immoderate Mar 2016 #32

Nice confession. HuckleB Mar 2016 #35

Good points, all the way around. OP is among the first to discredit sources, methods, and funding villager Mar 2016 #26

I discredit sources with evidence, not lame hyperbole. HuckleB Mar 2016 #38

...and of course, deploys rote phrases like "hyperbole" and "weak sauce" when necessary villager Mar 2016 #42

You imagine inconsistencies. HuckleB Mar 2016 #43

Actually, no -- I *hope* for "consistency" villager Mar 2016 #44

Utilizing evidence and principles of the scientific method is an agenda, I suppose. HuckleB Mar 2016 #45

You are good with the attack phrases, of course, and the circular use of agenda-driven web links villager Mar 2016 #46

LOL! "Attack phrases." Ah, I love the hypocrisy. HuckleB Mar 2016 #47

And of course, when all else fails... the projection. villager Mar 2016 #48

"Projection." HuckleB Mar 2016 #49

You mean, "daring to reply to you?" villager Mar 2016 #50

Another ironic post. HuckleB Mar 2016 #51

"Responding without content, and without being able to support your claims is not really responding" villager Mar 2016 #54

LOL! HuckleB Mar 2016 #58

Your links, of course, do nothing to buttress your argument. But glad to get them aired again! villager Mar 2016 #60

You keep telling yourself that. HuckleB Mar 2016 #61

"You keep telling yourself that." villager Mar 2016 #62

Nah, I'll go where the science leads... HuckleB Mar 2016 #63

Yes, you do have your trove of agenda-driven websites, all right villager Mar 2016 #64

So hundreds of peer-reviewed studies and scientific knowledge = "agenda-driven websites." HuckleB Mar 2016 #65

I challenge you to prove that Tyner is being paid by "large agribsiness" to come to his conclusions. Buzz Clik Mar 2016 #55

It's the Daily Caller, though. Archae Mar 2016 #3

It's a peer-reviewed study. HuckleB Mar 2016 #4

I see that in your above posting. Archae Mar 2016 #5

I know that, and you know that. HuckleB Mar 2016 #6

That would help, but it is not the address of the study. HuckleB Mar 2016 #59
