“Yes, the intestinal flora of some animals do contain EPSP but that has also been studied extensively. The results show that glyphosate ingestion has no significant effect on rumen fermentation.”

Impossible to determine this for sure. There are hundreds of thousands of different gut flora and infinite possible interactions that change every microsecond.

Humans have consumed plants and microbes that use ESPS since we have existed. We are now spraying entire fields of our food with this poison that kills all of it.

Just because we think it only poisons “other” biology, does not mean it has zero impact on us. All is connected in ways we do not even begin to understand.

“But no, as they have done for centuries, they continue to gnash and wail over things they don’t understand.”

Because it is impossible to fully understand the impact of spraying and covering entire ecosystems with manmade chemicals that never existed in the biosphefore. It is folly to think we are smart enough to do such a thing and no amount of studies will make it a certainty. Man is too flawed to wield such power on all biology. Especially when trillions of dollars in personal gain are involved

Once again, you do not need enzymes from any other source than your own body. It defies science to suggest otherwise. Glyphosate has been used for decades without any negative impact. Glyphosate has been tested on animals for decades as well. If your fears had any validity, something would have become apparent by now. Until there is scientific evidence to support your fear, your fear is irrational.

These so called "Man made chemicals" have been improving our quality of life for a long time. They have made our food supply safer and have contributed significantly to our longevity. Apparently we are smart enough to manage this for our benefit. You whine about these things but you probably wouldn't be alive today without them.
