You Can't Fool Mother Nature

SEE HERE  The phrase "You Can't Fool Mother Nature" was at the core of a popular series of commercials for one of the butter substitutes if I recall correctly.  It was an advertising campaign that was all over the television.  The phrase popped into my mind as I read this scary stuff about the emerging realization that genetically modified crops, especially corn, may be putting us all at serious risk.  The scientists that produce these "miracle" modifications don't really know as much about what they are doing as they pretend and their assurances are being found to not only be false, but dangerously so.  Genetically modifying crops to be sterile or to generate pesticides sounds good on one level but when you consider that the biosphere is genetically active and not under human control, the potential modifications could move in surprising and dangerous directions.  Be aware.  Be informed.  When you eat something "unnatural" you may be opening yourself up to unexpected consequences.  The problem is that it is increasingly impossible not to be eating this stuff.
