WRONG WITH THEM.
THAT'S WHY GOD THE FATHER SAID THAT IF "YOU PRAY OVER THE FOOD THAT
YOU EAT, IT WILL BE CLEANSED AND SANCTIFIED, AND WILL NOT HARM YOU".
1 TIMOTHY 4:3-5
SO SAY A "BLESSING OVER THE FOOD BEFORE YOU EAT IT, AND IN THAT WAY YOU
ARE THANKING GOD FOR IT".
I also realize that many foods have corn syrup in them but I basically avoid that as much as possible by cooking fresh produce and and we don't have many sweets other than fruit at home.
It gets confusing when you read about it because there is such a wide range of opinions. I don't know what to believe.
These guys are testing on rats, mice and I don't plan on being there guinea pig. They come up with these hair brain ideas and start putting them out only to find out years later that they don't work out and by then it's to late and they have already f K something else up.
Purdue researchers evaluating milk from cows fed genetically modified corn found no difference in the milk produced. There also were no differences in milk composition, production or feed intake between the cows fed modified corn and the conventional corn-fed control group. Kentucky scientists conducting similar tests on pigs fed genetically modified soybeans found the meat did not contain either the modified genes or the proteins. Maryland researchers have found no major effects on non-target insects in a field-sized research study of modified corn” (Gene Dreams are now Reality).
In light of all of this evidence, I would have to say that GM corn is safe. GM corn has no bad effect on animal’s babies, milk, or even their meat. It also does not greatly affect non-target insects. I think that GM crops will be the future of agriculture as the worlds population continues to grow while it’s available land for agriculture declines.

There are many GM products already in the works for the future. Plants such as tomatoes will be genetically modified so that they can grow in salty soils. The nutritional content of canola oil will be improved. Grass will grow slower (so that you don’t have to mow it as much) and it will be more resistant to cold, heat, and drought conditions. Grape vines will be able to resist diseases, and trees will be unsusceptible to insects and herbicides. There are many more GM products in the works for the future. The only limit seems to be scientists so far. It is easy to see how GM plants will be greatly beneficial to us in our future.
My preference is to never eat GMO foods of any type.
I will respectfully disagree the other statement. I think we are worth a lot more money alive. What they (and it is not government... it is the uber rich and those that would conspire with them) want is compliant laborers who work for 60 years, pay taxes and CONSUME with out question.
