It has to be GM foods. | The point is you cannot discount GM foods as a potential source that contributes to cancer because NOONE KNOWS the actual effects on humans. It may very well be safe but we need long term studies to back this up before we are turned into fucking guinea pigs. | Not to mention the fat cat companies are making the third world dependant on their products (as a result of the self-terminating gene), and there's also the risk of contaminating the natural environment.
And let's face it, nature simply didn't intend it. Some of the mutations that are created as a result of genetic testing are downright creepy. It's just sad. \"Are we justified in using articles, no matter how convenient it may be for us to use them, that we know were produced in conditions which bored and even stultified the human beings who had to make them?\"
