    I found this very interesting and opinion changing, the truth IS out there.

    Eight Lies About GMOs

    1. The health consequences of eating genetically modified organisms are largely unknown.
    2. Food items that contain GMOs are unlabeled in America.
    3. Genetic engineering reduces genetic diversity.
    4. Once the mutant genes are out of the bag, there is no going back.
    5. GMOs are not the answer for global food security.
    6. Genetically engineered foods have not been proven to be safe, but the few studies conducted don’t look so hot.
    7. Big biotech firms have very sketchy track records.
    8. GMOs require massive amounts of pesticides, herbicides and fungicides.

    Conclusion:
    If there were a real controversy about GMOs, there would be credible sources citing credible studies and making valid points. Anti-GMO sites would not have to resort to discredited studies from dubious sources, or making tired-old claims that have been debunked as often as creationist arguments.
