No doubt. But the piece about transfer of genetic material to gut bacteria is legit. Might not pan out, but IMO the potential risks far outweigh the benefits. Allowing GMOs to push forward before the concerns have been adequately addressed would be reckless.

Scare mongering is always ridiculous. But it is also merely the flip side of all the poo-pooing of legitimate concerns which occurs. At this point, it is a struggle to even get proper labeling of GMOs, much less banning them.

With all the things that Monsanto has been wrong about before (DDT, Agent Orange, and PCBs are no-brainers. RBGH and aspartame are debatable at best.) why should anybody trust them with this?
