    If the evidence for organic health benefits is shaky, the "evidence" against GMOs is even worse.

Gonna echo parent. RoundUp-ready plants encourage the spraying of more herbicide on fields instead of looking for alternate methods of control.

    I'm not a religious man, but the closest thing to God I know of is the Truth. If anything is prioritized over the truth, even motivated by the best of intentions, it will always lead to bad places. Every negative emotion, from jealousy to bitterness to anxiety stems on some level from a refusal to accept and embrace what is, and clinging instead to what we would like to be true.

This guy just comes across as loving his own butthole.
