Evolution crawls towards imperfection.

If we have the capability to create foods that provide a larger yield or contain more nutrition value then by all means do so. Simple.

If someone decides not to eat food that has been genetically modified then that is their choice. Eventually, they'll probably change their minds and decide to join us in the 21st century. Personally, I don't mind it--pass the GMOs! [img]graemlins/beigesmilewinkgrin.gif[/img]

I know many worry about GMOs creating new strains of bacteria that are resistant to all currently-known pesticides, antibiotics, or whatever. However, they must assume that we are too stupid to find a way to correct or guard against our own mistakes. If we don't make mistakes that we can correct, how will we, as people, ever learn anything? (that is a discussion for another time)
