As long as we let the uneducated religious nuts dictate what scientists can do with genes we are doomed to lives of sickness. The vast majority of diseases have been proven to have a genetic cause and we have already used gene therapy to replace faulty genes in humans more than 15 years ago.
There are people living healthy lives right now that would be dead if not for gene therapy. If we can't even modify our food how are we going to get the populace to accept gene therapy for childhood cancers or thousands of other diseases. It makes me sick. We are just changing the position of the four nucleic acids on the double helix. They are the nucleic acids no matter what position we put them in and we digest them every day.
People are so fucking stupid it makes me sick. There is no danger in the end product of gmo foods, the only danger is making an organism that produces something that might be harmful and of course this is fixed by testing the gmo food before it's green lite for consumption.
