    I don't think anyone here claims that all GMO is 100% safe. I think we are all in agreement that there needs to be more studies and testing.

    That is why I am not all for the flu shot. Many of the known side effects seem to be rather in attractive IMO. I have probably only had the flu once in my life.

    I think that's a fair concern. We already have mandatory vaccinations. For example, you can't attend a public school without them. You can't legally not attend public schools in the US unless you attend a homeschool with a registered teacher. That's not practical for most parents so they are left with being forced to have their children vaccinated.

    I personally know too many normal healthy people who have been bombarded with vaccines (military and hospital personnel) to know that the dangers associated with them are minimal at worst.

    And the intention of the vaccines is genuinely to stop the spread of infectious disease. Of that I also have no doubt.

    As far as the GMO genes getting into wild life. That's not only inevitable, it's already happening. I again don't disagree that it is a major concern. What can be done about it? I don't know. There definitely does need to be some regulation of genetic engineering. It's strange how such a taboo practice has become not only legitimized but in a sense forced upon us while a veil covering our eyes and then brought to light once it was cascading out of control. That probably has more to do with the religious and ethical concerns that have stifled genetic engineering since it was first found to be within the realm of human abilities a half a century ago.

    I don't know what to think but I do know I like eating healthy and I avoid corn and soy products just about entirely. It makes eating more expensive but more rewarding. If you bannish soy and corn from your diet all of the sudden you are eating nothing processed. Yes most vegetables come in GMO varieties now but I personally think that soy and corn and problems regardless of whether or not they are GMO. A tomato that contains a pesticide is a little frightening but I have to say that we were eating the pesticides before as well. Is there a difference? Probably. Should there be more open research done to determine how much of a difference? Definitely. Should GM foods be demonized in the mean time? I don't think so.

    The flu vaccine is what it is because the influenza virus is what it is. Every year different strains of the flu are prevalent. The flu vaccine is different every year and it also differs from localities even within the same year. The reason is that the vaccine consists of vaccines for the top 6 or so prevalent strains from the year before.

    So the vaccine will stop those strains, but because there are so many strains of the influenza virus and because it is known to be able to rapidly mutate to new forms not susceptible to the vaccines, it causes the vaccine to have very low success rates. It's not that the vaccine is unsuccessful, it's that the virus's genome lends itself to adaptibility.

    This is why a super strain of influenza is such a scary prospect. If a super strain that had a death rate of 50% hit and started spreading, it would be a while before a vaccine could be created. And by that time the virus will have likely mutated, creating a scenario of constantly having to catch up to the new strain.

    All viruses can mutate but some are more prone than others and for this reason influenza is difficult to manage.

    As you can see numbers don't always tell the whole story.

    I don't think its proper to compare vaccines to GMO food. Vaccines are used to stop the spread of epidemic diseases. Food is Genetically Modified to make for easier farming and to make more money. Sure, money may be a common link to both, but no one dies if we stop eating modified food.

    There's a vid out about chem trailing. Because of the Aluminum, Strontium, and Barium falling to earth has turn the soil too alkaline to support crops. Fortunately, Monsanto has a seed that grows perfectly in those conditions. I asked my dad, an Army Chemist, what the purpose of spraying those in the atmosphere would achieve. He suggested those three items have reflective properties.

    And there you go again. Stats are not there showing that vaccines are ineffective. The FACT is that they are effective. You want to be the guy at work refusing to get vaccinated and get everyone else sick.
    You make some valid points and then ruin it with this crap.
    The world is a better place because of vaccines and nobody wants to poison you


    QUOTE=archy;169081]What about people who are forced to vaccinate through a job or schools. The stats are there to show the harmful effects and Ineffectiveness of vaccines as well. Rather safe than sorry. With Obama care vaccines are mandatory.[/QUOTE]

    so you agree with forced vaccination? doesn't sound like freedom to me. sounds like some authoritarian commie crap. I have a friend that lived in costa rica for years and continually vaccinated now he has an allergy to peanuts. guess it has no correlation to part of the peanut being in some of the vaccines he took. you will never hear about danger and ineffectiveness of certain vaccines in mainstream media. they would never touch it. their advertising dollars come from big pharma. that's why you only hear it from independent sources. or the so called conspiracy sites as brewdude would say. they have no financial ties to the pharma industry.

    Tooth protection is poison?

    Btw, you suck at forum posting. I always have to edit your **** to get it to post properly.

    It seems that you drink every possible Kool Aid offering... including the fluoride poison.

    As for editing, I remind you of your habit of doing so to change the meaning of posts as part of the intellectually lazy and dishonest habit of making straw man arguments.

    You are a walking mental disaster... if you can walk... and a crippled one if you can't.

    BAWHAAHAHAHAHAH! you believe that crap? man you really are drinking the Kool-Aid. tell me how ingesting fluoride protects your teeth. read the warning on your toothpaste. its says "DO NOT SWALLOW".

    a little history lesson for you. fluoride was first introduced to water supplies in Nazi Germany. Hiltler added it to the concentration camps water to keep the prisoners passive.

    the fluorides most commonly added to our water supply, hydrofluoroselicic acid and hexefluoroselicic acid, is a toxic byproduct of fertilizer production.

    I would post a video for you explaining all of it but you would just disregard it from being from a so-called conspiracy theory website. so let me post the Harvard study on fluoride for you again.
    http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/features/fluoride-childrens-health-grandjean-choi/

    you can argue that it is good for your teeth, but who has the right to add it to our water supply? if you or I want to use it we should have the choice. not have it forced down our throats. oh but your for forced innoculations.

    if you are at all concerned about ingesting fluoride you might want to invest in one of these.

    And yet somehow, with ALL the poisoning that is taking place mortality rates go up and up
