You mean to say the scientific consensus at this point, which is that they are indeed safe. It's silly to refer to people who believe in scientific rigor as "religious".
- colordrops 10y agoNo, I know exactly what I meant to say. I'm not saying that GMOs are unsafe. They probably are safe. I'm just saying that there is always the possibility that some issue could be found with a specific GMO, just like any other product in existence. But there are some out there that for some reason think it is impossible. Those are the ones I labeled as "religious".
- Joof 10y agoYou're probably seeing a disproportionate backlash to the religious anti-GMO crowd. I'm not sure why, but people get equally stupid when they are defensive.
- colordrops 10y agoThere is no doubt that those people exist, but that's not who we are talking about right now.
