id like to get to understand the reasons why people dont like GE food, so if you dont like it can you tell me why?

i imagine people think it's "bad" for them. i really don't know what the big deal is... it could just be the big food businesses trying to keep a foot hold in their market.
I really don't know, they think it could be dangerous to your health maybe
Genetic Engineered food cant really be bad for you, you're not gonna make a poison by just changing some genes having to do with growth and stuff... Random mutation does as much.
One thing that upsets people is that the crops are made resistant to certain natural enemies etc and are afraid that, for instance grains if they mix with a wild species a new crossbreed will exist that wont be as edible but will not be under controll in nature itself, so it'll grow to much etc causing damange to the enviroment.
I hate hippies...

I think all this organic food/GE food is a load of rubbish. Food, at the end of the day, is something you just eat. It might kill you if you ate extorinate amounts of it, but it would probably take you 120 years or so to do that, and we don't live that long anyway. May as well just eat foods and pig out for the 80 years-or-so we're here for. :P
you know you have to pay much more for organic food too... so buy GE
and give genetic engineers work :)
GE is good, we already control most of the environment, why not go further and control all the organisims?
We need more gentic diversity anyways
I think there is no choice but to turn to g.e., and the food is good!
I can see both sideds of the argurment but i like that one better, we need to make our crops more pest resistant-why? because we have made our pests pesticide resistant. Also the taste benifets are cool, i like the idea of strawapples.
And who didnt like Jurrasic Park?
i cant tell if your being sarcastic or not...
but ge food is far superior to organically grown crops (damn those hippies and their lies)
if your a hippy i hate you
if your being sarcastic i hate you
if it wasnt illegal i would kill hippies...
Maybe I am wrong but I thought Genetic Engineered and organically grown stuff where two totally different things. One being what you do before you grow it and the other is what you do after. So you could have something that is GE and organically grown at the same time.
bah... organically grown crap is grown by hippies, they dont use artificial herbicides or pesticides, they dont use genetically enhanced seeds.
Thats why they cost so much for. 2/3 of the plants die so they charge more to cover the costs.
No need to hate! im all for GE! I can see how you would assume sarcasm tho...Quote:
if your a hippy i hate you
if your being sarcastic i hate you [/b]
Dont go around hating hippies as well, they are entitled to thier opinion!
G.E. is the only path that we can take-seriously, and if you belive otherwise you are living in a dreamworld where you call apon bannanas to dance for you and stomp on strwberry people while they run amok around your feet screaming 'the human! the human is here!'
hippies arent learn-ed enough for me to like them... so i hate them.
Convert or be destroyed... you hippies
