How many different species of plants have been gene spliced since the technology was invented?? It's not just "American Chestnut trees" under discussion here, but EVERY SINGLE GMO plant... which "does" amount to thousands of years of gene-splice experience....ALL without any detectable negative consequences of any sort.
"Your "thousands of years" of knowledge time is meaningless in this context."
That is because your stated "context" is incorrect.
"You truly do not have a clue what will happen as a result of gene splicing.
I have a pretty good clue that it isn't harmful, or that if it is, the effects are so minimal as to be undetectable.
"Roundup was harmless until it wasn't..."
"Roundup" isn't what was genetically manipulated (having no genes, it would be kind of hard to do), it was a variety of soybean plant, and the cause of harm from Roundup isn't GMO-based.
I say again....show me ANY evidence that ANY GMO manipulataed plant has demonstrated a harmful effect of any sort.
You are so convinced that you’re right about all this that you refuse to even consider the possibility that you might be wrong.
