    Glyphosate, introduced in the 1970s, is the most widely used herbicide in the world, sprayed on farms, in forests, on road sides and in gardens, and has a reputation for being benign, as pesticides go. It is now generic and used in many products, not only Roundup.

    An agency of the World Health Organization has declared that glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, probably causes cancer in people.

    Our extinction is imminent, read a report that gives us little more than a century. It'll only be a matter of time until it's all over.

    My only gripe is at what point do you give up and enjoy what's left because ignorance outweighs education and money outweighs health.

    Hey, Barry, what happened to your previous post, bud?

    I thought it was well written and I agreed fully with it.

    All of these new age hippies are not even close to what their parents did in the 60s. They was the real deal! Protesting, sticking it to the man! Yea! F the goverment! Don't tread on me!

    Nowadays, all these youngins do is piss and moan. They don't wanna actually do anything to help, they just wanna make it seem like they are intellectually stimulating to their peers. Yea, man! No GMO! No Monsanto!

    Shut up, for crying out loud.

    lifestyle choices and pointing out hypocrisy in order to avoid it are worthwhile endeavors

    Thomas Paine wrote a pamphlet,, called common sense.....it changed a lot

    so writing and talking DO do something

    every course of action starts with ideas and words

    gnarbutter, you sound a lot like some other posters on here, is this your first identity here?

    Thomas Paine is a personal hero of mine. I'm assuming you have seen my other posts speaking of him, which is why you brought him up.

    Literature does have a way of giving people hope and instilling a sense of power in them, I agree with you. With that being said, posting on an interweb surfing forum, I'm not so sure of.

    Get out there, dude! Help the community, go to rallies, protest with your fellow whiny, science ignoring hippie buddies.

    This would be my first identity on here. It took me a while to find my groove, but now, at last, I feel comfortable with who I truly am.

    Ive been a Thomas Paine admirer for some time, I dont need a post to remind me of the author of the most influential piece of literature in western history

    science ignoring? lets get more data, Id say I am very pro science

    lets do multiple genuine peer review studies over multiple age groups, species etc with genetically modified crops as food source and glyphosate as background pollution over multiple years. Get a glut of data and then look for patterns using principle component analysis.

    bet guess what? you cant get the money to perform said study in any university.
    money interferes with science. a lot.

    and I disagree, writing, posting ANYWHERE is a start...hearts and minds......

    happy Saturday

    Hey, my bad, hombre. A simple mistake. THE most influential? Eh, I don't know about all that. Influential, no doubt, but there are definitely others I would put before it.

    I may have misjudged you, makeitstop, I apologize for that.

    There have been plenty of studies done on GMO and the pesticides they use. Most of you who do not agree with trying to end world hunger through genetic modification, seem to be living under a rock. Look it up, dawg, you have the world database at your finger tips.

    The science has been done, and the conclusion is irrefutable.

    Yea, yea, label, go for it. I'm over the GMO debate, guy.

    The book was written in 1776, our democracy was already well established.

    John Locke was entirely more influential on our forefathers.

    Checkout The Two Treatsies of Government. That book was extremely important.
