very informative post. and you definitely brought up a good point. i agree with you that a ‘genetically’ alter organism should not be consider natural. too bad it happens and it’s hard for people to differentitate what’s even natural or not anymore.

Hi jim,

I saw “Soylent Green” and can relate to the ire, and disgust of Charlton Heston’s character. I am constantly flabbergasted at the flagrant disregard for the truth illustrated by those who would seek to pad their pockets in the name of “progress” or “greater production”.

It is this very dilemma, spawned by greed, that has opened the gates to other genetic science machinations such as cloning. Following the money grubber’s logic, where do we draw the line in defining a “natural” person?

It seems to me the only ones who believe this line has been blurred are those who have bought into the lies perpetrated by those who seek to make profit from this folly.

Thanks again for daring to be a vocal critical thinker.

I appreciate you,

Bill Tessore

Jim, there has been quite a gray-ing of definitions lately. The scariest is in food. What is natural anymore? The whole GMO concept is a bit scary to me. I do not have a soylent green phobia, but what is going into our food? I really appreciate this blog because you discuss these ideas in an open manner. Thanks! .-= Jon Clayton´s last blog ..Component 1; Create Your Magnetic Core =-.

Interesting post. There are differences in what we consider 'good food' for sure. What ever happened to just plain natural? My breakfast almost every morning is a delicious soy protein shake. Soy is a biologically complete protein source. But here again, I have to be careful to choose Non-GMO Soy protein. Of course the brand I have used for 25 years makes this and has taken the time to educate us about it. We really do have to do our homework in regard to the food we feed our bodies, and it takes time and investigation as you have shown in your posts. .-= Vicki Zerbee´s last blog ..Resveratrol Scam Legitimate without Science and Research and Guarantee =-.

GMO is a serious concern and the long-term implications are very disturbing. No one knows how years of eating GMO food will affect the human body. I’m a vegetarian – vegan, when possible – and so I’ve loved the Morningstar Farms veggie burgers, ‘chicken nuggets’, etc. – then I read they use GMO in their recipes. I’ve quit them now, but it’s too bad. We can’t assume that any food is as Mother Nature made it unless we inform ourselves. Even the companies that call themselves ‘health food’ manufacturers will sell this stuff. Our lifestyle is the single biggest factor in determining how healthy we will be – or not. The entire raging debate about national health care proves just how serious this problem is. To a huge extent, our health is in our own hands.
