i mean, there's all this opposition to gmo wheat, which i currently do not believe exists in canada.

but, wheat is a hybrid organism created by artificial selection: it is already genetically modified by humans.

the fact is that the activists don't know that (and i've talked to them. they don't.), so they're operating on fear, uncertainty and doubt in just opposing the unknown. and, they'll you that: they're afraid of something they don't understand.

there is a good reason to oppose the patent laws. i'm on board with that. but, i'm not afraid of gmos, and don't think you should be, either; i want to embrace science, and i want to live in the future, not the past.
