"you must be genetically predisposed to most carcinogens for them to activate...other than extreme radiation and chemical immersions which also alter the chromosome "
So wouldn't lab modified genetics fall into the chemical immersion category? The chemical makeup of DNA is being manipulated, and we really have no idea how these seemingly minute changes interact with our biology over the long term. I have no problem with genetic modification, through selective breeding, there millions of years of evolution buffering any weird mutant DNA, but because that isn't "economically feasible",we allow science to twist and tweak genetics to get instant gratification<profits>. If GMO's aren't dangerous why is there legislation to protect companies<IE Monsanto> from prosecution if a link is found proving they cause health problems? There is the same problem in the medical industry where many new drugs are "fast tracked" into the market,claiming the benefit outweighs any possibly negatives. Yet, how many products over the last hundred years were deemed safe,only to realize after 10,15 or 20yrs down the road that there are major medical problems being caused by said products?? Lead paints,asbestos insulation,chemicals in plastics. Better living through chemistry my ass....its always been about money and always will be....Until there is long term, unbiased, research and testing I'm staying away from it as much as I possible can...
