GMO'S are terribly dangerous. The precautionary principle dictates if you don't know whether or not something is safe, avoid it until it is proven safe. Human's have evolved since before we were humans eating only non-genetically modified organisms....altering structures to non-organic states and then ingesting them into our system is a recipe for potential disaster including cancer offspring issues etc.

Side: No, GMO's are dangerous!

GMOs are put through extensive testing before they are released to the public. There is nothing in GMOs which humans are not able to process. GMOs have altered organic structures but they are not "non-organic" they are still made of organic molecules.

You do realize that GMO strains can mutate randomly after they are released to the public right? When you introduce new genes that didn't evolve naturally they will not fit into the genetic puzzle unless you use techniques which are just barely being developed at present. I think it's safe to say Monsantos doesn't always know what it's doing, and doesn't always care because the first priority is profit for them. Just look at how they conduct business and ask yourself if their product is trustworthy you cerebrally contused blathering imbecile. Yeah it's clear that the guy you are disputing doesn't have the scientific vocabulary to express his thoughts precisely but at least he is not a corporate cum dumpster like you. Do you think apples and tomatoes that produce their own pesticide is natural for the human diet you dipshit? Do you think if one of those pesticide producing strains mutated just a little bit(never mind the rampant mutation that can be induced through gene splicing due to the disruption of the original sequence) that those pesticides could become humancides? Do you think just because GMOs technically consist of organic material that makes them good? Cyanide is an organic molecule you fuck hole.

Side: No, GMO's are dangerous!
