proof that gmo cause autism or is even linked to it, please.
and a non bias source would be nice. i google it and all i get is idiotic anti vactination websites and pro farm websites.
but i agree that gmo food should be labeled so people can choose what they want.
wait, are you anti vacs also?"but wait, we have vaccines now, and there's more autism. causation implies correlation, right?"
but you know what... If you really care about changing something as big as monsanto.. You have to be RICH.. SUPER RICH...I think like, one or two people might almost be that rich.

IF YOU WANT TO BE HEALTHY YOU HAVE TO EAT ORGANIC, NON-GMO, GLUTEN-FREE, FAT-FREE, CARB-FREE, SUGAR-FREE, VACCINE-FREE, FOOD-FREE FOOD, AND FOLLOW A STRICT PALEO DIET AT THE SAME TIME. AND DO CROSSFIT
I find it fascinating that people think avoiding GMOs and vaccines will cure death...
Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) is a colorless and odorless chemical compound, also referred to by some as Dihydrogen Oxide, Hydrogen Hydroxide, Hydronium Hydroxide, or simply Hydric acid. Its basis is the highly reactive hydroxyl radical, a species shown to mutate DNA, denature proteins, disrupt cell membranes, and chemically alter critical neurotransmitters. The atomic components of DHMO are found in a number of caustic, explosive and poisonous compounds such as Sulfuric Acid, Nitroglycerine and Ethyl Alcohol.

welllll... technicallllly.... if we assume the average person lives to 70..
Now, if 70 people each extended 1 year of their life by avoiding GMO and vaccines..
THEN .. We've more/less cured Death for 1 person..
yep, solid logic thereI find it fascinating that people think avoiding GMOs and vaccines will cure death...

The thing with genetic modification of food is that humans have been genetically modifying foods for a very long time, just it has been through articficial selection.

Doesn't seem very appetizing right? Well humans over time have only eaten the bananas that have the least seeds and the most fruit which is why our bananas today look completely different. Genetically modifying foods today is the same process except induced in short periods of time instead of the moderate amount of time it takes for something in nature to adapt to our standards.
Generally I am anti giant agri business and anti pharma... or just generally anti corporate as much as is possible in this modern age. But, I am not going to delude myself that I am going to change the world at all. I can only choose for myself what I buy. If that has any effect that is fine.I agree that one man alone can do nothing. An organized group of of people CAN make change. There has been a lot more organization against companies like Monsanto and every voice and action is appreciated. Don't undervalue your contribution towards what you believe is right.
The only way we can change the world would be to stop buying anything at all. Destroy all money, let the entire economic infrastructure destruct, and all corporations and governments to crumble... then kill all the rich people that were previously running things. Then, once we have a 'clean slate' we can try again to do it right.

That is not the same thing at all to genetically modified food and the two should not be confused. Propagating NATURALLY occurring traits by crossing strains and that sort of things is not the same thing as what is happening with our GMO food. For example, corn now has to be registered with the EPA because it has been genetically modified to PRODUCE a pesticide as it grows. No corn had ever done that and it was not a propagation of a desired trait, it was genetically modified to produce something that it was never naturally designed to produce. That is a HUGE difference...

New traits are expected to emerge from any sample, it just so happens that humans have sped up the process. I bet if you surveyed thousands of plants, there would be some that produced some of this pesticide, it just so happens that now we can better take advantage of that genetic trait, or at least its compatibility within its genome. Not to mention that none of this means that it is dangerous for humans. Moreover, the traits of most foods we eat were never INTENDED by nature. Most crops these days, genetically modified or not need assistance from farmers in order to spread seeds because crops, through artificial selection have lost most of their seeds.

I feel you need to do some more research sir. Maybe start with the actually watching the videos I posted to give you an idea where to start your research...
can't you guys crack some jokes or sum**** this is lame afoh no people want to have an intelligent discussion, to bad we're forcing you to be here

I'm amazed people even bother replying to OP. The post history is enough to show they're crazy. They probably believe in chemtrails and all those other crazy conspiracy theories too.
There is SOME validity to the OP's argument. Vaccines are not without side effects. The last time I got a vaccination I grew an extra set of arms.Sounds awesome. Where can I get this vaccine?
Now, the OP may look at this as a horrible side effect of evil vaccines, but I've found having 20 fingers makes typing far more efficient, as you can see:Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/fPGYfQs.png)

I'm still not sure why everyone thinks humans are always bad. Like, we're not part of "nature". Anything we do is unnatural and bad. Why is an animal eating a seed and spreading it around "good" but a human picking and choosing things to combine "bad"? Are we really that separated from nature?Well seeing how we destroyed our planet and keep one doing everything to stay far away from our primal existance , yes we are far away from nature .

I'm not saying go back to stone age . But the closest a urban human will be from nature is picking up a plastic wrapped fruit from a grocery store.

While I agree that "getting back to nature" is a good thing and has a lot of value, I'm still not convinced that it's inherently bad to not do so. Adaptation is usually viewed as a good thing, but now it's like we've gone too far in a lot of people's minds. Just seems kind of arbitrary to decide that *now* is too much. Why wasn't farming going too far? Farming is "unnatural".
(mostly playing devil's advocate, since I enjoy things that taste better, but I just don't see the hate for advancements)
As far as crop farming goes... if people stopped eating a highly meat based diet we could get a lot more real food crops out of growing land instead of the huge percentage that is now mostly crop grown solely for animal feed which is highly inefficient. Encouraging farmers to grow a larger variety of different crops (no more 100% corn or soybean farms!) would also be good, so if there is a particularly bad year for crop A, crops X Y Z may still fare well.
Newer generations are more aware about environmental impact, so hopefully we can keep improving things to be less damaging and eventually reverse some damage done in the 20th century. We mostly just need to wait for our grandparents and parents generations who are largely still running everything to all be dead so we can get away from many of those bad old ways.
