Some research on genetically modified foods became taboo because of protests from the left. That may have prevented a second Green Revolution to feed Africa.

Totally agree. One of my daughters friends has a degree in some kind of agriculture science and was educating me about how GMO plants are actually good for the environment. The use little or no pesticides (good thing, right?), they use less water (another good thing, right?), they grow faster, thus increasing the annual yield (a third good thing right?), but all the left protest it.

Reminds me of a case study I did while getting my MBA, way back when, about Ford developing a 4 cylinder engine that burned gas so completely that it would not need a catalytic converter. Greenpeace railed against the release of that engine and Ford said screw it and shelved it. Turns out the GP was getting it's funding from the catalytic converter manufacturers.

Just like one of the Left’s patron saints, Rachael Carson, helped ban DDT and allowed millions to die in Africa of malaria.

Stossel skirted the fact that anyone who attempts to discuss intelligent design as a theory of how life evolved won’t be hired or will be run out of the “intellectual” community.

And my personal theory about why that is the case is not because intelligent design is too ridiculous to even discuss, but because it makes more sense and is FAR more likely to be true than Darwinian evolution whose scientific foundation is known to be essentially non-existent by one and all of those who promote it, since Darwinian evolution is nothing more than a slightly dressed up version of the older spontaneous generation theory in which life springs whole from mud puddles. In fact, the only real difference between Darwinian evolution and spontaneous generation is the amount of time involved ... they both start with mud puddles and end with home sapiens with no explanatory motivating force in between.

You will certainly be mocked for thinking there is a God that created everything, but not for thinking that everything created itself.

Liberalism demands that political correctness and Marxist ideology comes before scientific fact. If you try to tell them facts, their first instinct is to plug their ears and to scream you down.

We’re not allowed to talk about this, or criticize. Liberals own science. / bitter sarc

OK!! Everybody pay attention!
Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a giant nuclear furnace that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

Africa creates enough refugees as it is. Let it alone.
