Lol Jesus.

That's like saying terrorism doesn't exist because it's peaceful in my front yard.

Around 88% of scientists believe GMO products are safe. Studies of animals consuming millions/billions of meals over decades prove they're safe.

So why is the scientific concensis suspect in this case, but not in the case of mmgw?

I'm a 'liberal' and I think GMOs can solve huge problems particularly in third world countries.

So do most sensible liberals with a basic grasp of science.

TBF, the snowball was just the icing on the cake in his 'climate change is a hoax' argument. Ultimately he believes it's a hoax because god told him.

"I take my religion seriously," Inhofe writes. "This is what a lot of alarmists forget: God is still up there, and He promised to maintain the seasons and that cold and heat would never cease as long as the earth remains."

For those still skeptical of his climate change skepticism, Inhofe quotes from the source material, "one of my favorite Bible verses,"

Genesis 8:22: As long as the earth remains
There will be springtime and harvest
Cold and heat, winter and summer

Inhofe was asked about this particular piece of Scripture during a radio interview when his book came out. The passage, he said, is so conclusive that it’s simply outrageous that scientists continue to address the matter.

"The arrogance of people to think that we, human beings, would be able to change what He is doing in the climate is to me outrageous," he said.

And these people keep getting reelected.

Haha, what a guy. Keep idiots like him out of halls of power, goddamn it.

Did you know sweet potatoes were created from bacteria transferring dna in nature? 😉

Love sweet potatoes.

TBH the whole idea that 90% of scientific community thinks this, 76% of that community thinks that etc. etc. is BS. These numbers cannot even be feasibly measured.

That's because it is a logical fallacy known a appeal to authority. 😄 It could also be the logical fallacy argumentum ad populum.

Latin is cool.

Exactly, whilst minimal long-term risks may exist from GMO's in the medium term they can only do good. That said since the 70's we have had the ability to feed the world if we want.

The global temperature is going up. We are probably past the point of no return.

How did you lovable goofballs manage to make this a partisan issue? Even cdtm's survey shows no particular correlation between political ideology and views on GMO's.

Also, scientists cannot escape partisanship completely.
