bang goes the theory saying GM crops perfectly safe whilst stating we don't know much about genetics and their potential impact... wtf? they just keep saying how great it is they don't mention http://www.dailymail.co.uk/new​s/article-1082559/The-GM-genoc​ide-Thousands-Indian-farmers-c​ommitting-suicide-using-geneti​cally-modified-crops.html

    • Gary John Freeman Jones Unlike eukaryotes, which evolve principally through the modi®cation of existing genetic information, bacteria have obtained a signi®cant proportion of their genetic diversity through the acquisition of sequences from distantly related organisms. Horizontal gene transfer produces extremely dynamic genomes in which substantial amounts of DNA are introduced into and deleted from thechromosome. These lateral transfers have effectively changed the ecological and pathogenic character of bacterial species
