40 years is hardly an adequate sampling period in terms of evolution, now is it?

No one at monsanto has seen any hard evidence of negative GMO consequences and everyone knows that peer-reviewed journals never publish anything that isn’t true, nor do they refuse to publish anything that might interrupt the revenue stream.

The hubris of scientists almost equals that of the churchmen.

PhD = Piled Higher and Deeper

We're talking man-years of science, not linear years of time. With thousands of scientists working, the "knowledge time" is on the order of thousands of years. If there was an effect, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN SEEN AND PUBLISHED.

"No one at monsanto has seen any hard evidence of negative GMO consequences and everyone knows that peer-reviewed journals never publish anything that isn’t true, nor do they refuse to publish anything that might interrupt the revenue stream."

There are many, many organizations other than Monsanto doing research on genetics, including many that are actively looking for any effects from GMO. Again, no such effects have been seen by any group. And you obviously know nothing about peer-reviewed journals and how they work. I've published in such journals, and they are unaffected by any "revenue stream" from Monsanto or anyone else.

"The hubris of scientists almost equals that of the churchmen."

And the hubris of the "true believer" in a conspiracy is worse than either.

"PhD = Piled Higher and Deeper"

So, in the end, you have nothing.
