before you base your opinion on someone else's opinion about gm food, watch this http://www.snagfilms.com/films/title...uture_of_food/

(its a buisness run for a prophet and it does not help the people, it can only harm us) but that's my opinion

Well, let me just state something which should be obvious. We are in a pickle. There are only two options open to us.

1.) Reduce the worlds population.
2.) Increase the food supply if you don't succeed at #1.

GM foods have much to offer and can be the answer to #2.

It's a hard choice for some, but not for me.

okay, 1- i think we need to reduce the population, it will solve 101 problems.

2- GM food does not produce a higher yield than regular food, fine me any proof (other than Monsanto's website) that it makes more food.

i typed into google "gm crops increase yield" and these are what i found

Monsanto can say whatever they want about there own product and naturally they will say that gm crops increase yield. and notice how any of the few sites that say it does list Monsanto's website as there only source, and/or are funded by Monsanto.

1 is unobtainable......

GM food is not about increasing yields, but I'm sure they will. It is about saving crops which we currently lose today. They are already working on a roundup resistant soy bean....which means you could cheaply round up a field with a crop duster and fry everything in the field EXCEPT the Soy...... that's a darn good improvement.

GM crops will be able to be grown in areas which are now not arable.

ok now Im interested. How would you do this?

how would i do this?
okay, im not an expert at this but i would establish rules. like no killing. no hiding sterilization in corn, or anything else for that matter. no intentionally harming the people. i personally would do this by promoting programs like planned parenthood, and making abortions legal, and offering $ to couples to have 2 or less children. we dont have to reduce the population right now. we can do it the right way, and take 500 years if need be.

and as for the GM crops, i think there sort of like medicare and social security, in the sense that they have good intentions initially but its going to end up being a big stink in the end, except this is one of our 3 basic needs and people will die when this shits the bed. just look up Monsanto's terminator seeds. all's a terrorist would have to do is wipe out those fields and the following year 1/2 of America would starve to death.

I doubt we'll have to wait long for a reduction in population. Too many shady players with the potential to posses nukes.

well I hate to spoil your fun. but that just simply wont work.
if you want to get serious about reducing population, you need to be open to suggestions like mediceman said, nuke em!

why wont it work over a 500 year period? that seems like enough time. look up china's one child policy. also we could implement the death penalty and get rid of welfare. there's so many things we can do
