Also, Tang comes in dozens of flavors now (including Horchata, yum) so it can be made to fit your tastes.

Then you really need to read the post again, the MAMAM is about correcting their science, which is horrible, not about excusing Monsanto.

If you are that staunch about “evil is evil” then I’m not sure how you live in the world because literally everything harms someone.

And why Data hated Geordi… no, wait.

I didn’t see anyone state or even imply that Monsanto does no harm, just that they are not the evil that their opponents insist they are. They are a huge multinational corporation so of course they are far from goodness and light, some of their business practices are downright deplorable, but that doesn’t change the truth about GMO safety.

Have fun with that, while you’re at it maybe you can figure out how only the people who are shitting themselves about GMOs could be made to pay for that labeling that you want. Like maybe the voluntary labeling that has already begun and not my tax dollars, K?

Yes, because comically wrong science is OK if you are fighting Teh Ebil

Name another company that is doing GE that these hucksters wouldn’t see as evil? I can’t come up with any. Monsanto may be the boogie man but there are other firms that are arguably worse (ADM comes to mind) and while that doesn’t excuse Monsanto is does point out the…[Read more]

Yes weeds evolve, that is how it works and how it would work without GMOs. In fact, according to the International Survey of Herbicide Resistance Weeds all areas surveyed have multiple weeds resistant to herbicides, even areas where GMOs are banned and even before the wide spread use of GMOs. Overuse of herbicides is an issue but that is not…[Read more]

I realize that you may have been talking about Bt corn which produces a pesticide that allows farmers to use less pesticide. Again, the possible unintended consequences are no bigger then in conventional breeding, and I say actually lower because they are testing the hell out of this particular product.

I don’t have a scientific background but I can see right away that you have a misconception about Roundup ready plants.

They are not dependent upon a certain pesticide, they are resistant to that pesticide allowing the farmer to use that pesticide without worrying that it will kill the crop, which it normally would do, (that can lead to over…[Read more]

Your opinion is duly noted, please excuse me for not sharing it.

Yes, we wouldn’t want a good word like pedophile sullied like that.

And friends of rapists.

I went back to reread the article from 2011 and there is DJ Grothe defending Krauss. No wonder Grothe defended Michael Shermer, he had practice excusing rapists.

No if you’ll excuse me I need to go vomit in the shower.

Your entire first paragraph could describe aspartame just as readily as gluten. The only real difference is that gluten sensitivity has been given credibility (in some cases by those trying to cash in on the fad) while aspartame sensitivity is relegated to the fringes of Natural News.

It’s all about perspective.

Blighters.

How about privilege tourist?

variable – Wow, so you’ve called me a hypocrite (or the more passive/aggressive “I’d call you a hypocrite if I thought you were actually taking the time to think these things out”), said I put words in your mouth, and threw out the “I wins the internet” trump card of straw man; you are projecting big time here.

I made a comment about how I f…[Read more]

…and hipsters, or is that redundant?

Interesting, you have just called me a hypocrite for making an argument I didn’t make and then said that I accused my opponents (believing that to be you perhaps?) of thinking in black and white. I actual said that things aren’t black and white so I’m really not sure what you’re on about with that.

Could you please show where I said that site…[Read more]

There is a huge difference between disallowing those who are attacking your person and those who disagree with you and I think you know that.
