So breeding sheep as has been done for 2000 years is the same as mixing spider or goat DNA into corn?

DNA is DNA is DNA. There is absolutely *no* difference in DNA whether it comes from a spider, goat, corn, virus, bacteria, fungus, or any other living organism. It is merely a chemical code. Furthermore, organisms exchange DNA all the time.

Yes I get “emotional” about the food supply. It is life itself after all.

You allow emotion to override your God-given ability to think. If I were to suggest learning how to think logically and how to check facts, I think the suggestion would fall on deaf ears. That said, reacting emotionally without ever taking the time to learn whether there is anything to be hyper-emotional about doesn't do you or anyone else any good.

If GMO is so good why do you have to hide it?

No one is hiding anything. Every market I have ever seen, for my whole entire life, has displayed genetically modified food proudly, right out in the open. As I already pointed out, if you are so irrationally paranoid about eating genetically modified food, no one is stopping you from going out into the wilderness and gathering your own food.

But YOU Ex Dem Mom are trying to stop your fellow Americans from choosing to pay more by having a choice at their local Grocery Store.

Why is that?

Bacteria (bT), fungus and virus is not something that I will feed my family willingly,
Why do I not have a choice not to eat the same foul food that you choose to feed your kid lets?

60-90 day tests done by Bayer, Syngenta, and Monsanto are Not “proof” of efficacy. The CDC does not recognize any condition that could possibly be related to GMOs so WTH is studying it?
Exactly NOBODY.

Really? DNA may be DNA,(which is nothing more than a name science has applied to the coding they have discovered each living organism has — and science is STILL learning about), however, if there were no *difference* then all those organisms you name would be one and the same. But the fact is that the *code* is different for every living organism, which means there is a BIG difference in the coding from organism to organism.

You put spider and corn DNA together, and logic and reason tell most of us, it might not be good thing.
