In reply to the discussion: GMO's are they safe? There is no way to be sure yet...there are no absolutes in young science... [View all]Eko
(7,281 posts)31. I think you fail to see my point.
Most everybody at that time including the US Govt thought DDT's were safe including monsanto. You say fool me one, etc etc,,,,,,. so if monsanto is not to be trusted at all because they were wrong before and the US govt was wrong on the same subject then you cant trust the US govt, like the USDA, so you probably don't want to drink milk. What does WMD's have to do with any of this, no, I was sure there werent any for the record but great ad-hominem attack there gyroscope.

Just because the funding is independent doesn't mean the research wasn't restricted

And in Europe they have decided, based on the evidence that you reject, to strictly regulate GMO's.

Oh right. Because all those European scientists are suffering from irrational fear.

How about this ~ stop rendering food producing areas infertile, and improve the waste factor?
