For those who are interested in knowing what we put in our bodies, Ben and Jerry's announced they will no longer be using and GMO ingredients in their ice cream.
What about gene transfer to bacteria? That's pretty serious, don't you think, especially for the part where the bacteria takes the DNA and makes themselves be resistant.
Bacteria can take up bits of DNA from their environment (called transformation) or transfer plasmids between themselves (e.g. "resistance genes"). Animal cells generally don't do those things.
Don't have time to debunk this all piece by piece, but consider the source. You can find a few references on this site to the "aspartame causes all kinds of health problems" that has been debunked a billion times over by real science.
Credibility is not there.
How did I know you would be the first to respond? SMH.
Get back to us when you have "time to debunk".
You seem like an OK poster otherwise, but when it comes to GMO's and Multi-National corporations controlling the World's food supply, your credibility never existed in my book.
The only reason people are against GMOs is because they associate genes and genetic modification with nasty things like cancer. Modifying our own genes is bad, but food can't change our DNA.
My opinion is that the best use of genetic engineering is medicine: introducing healthy copies of genes into people with disabling genetic diseases like Cystic Fibrosis.
The current state of the GM crops and animals seem to be counterproductive. Lots of money spent for little social and environmental gain.

Pretty much. The whole alternative medicine/holistic health thing survives almost entirely off being anti-science.
NO! It has survived based on thousands of years of learned behaviours....
Monsanto has been around maybe 100 yrs.
Man and nature... much longer.
