I think part of the problem here is that people agree to this sort of thing because they don't really understand where the food comes from. Meaning they may know it is a plant or animal but are so far removed from any type of farm life they think food comes from the store, not the farm. Also we have been programed to believe if the government or scientists say it's ok than it must be. I for one do not believe this. Thats one reason we try to raise at least our own meat and now that I am not working may try to do our own veggies as well. Selective breeding is one thing changing DNA is another. If God wanted goats to spin silk then they wouldn't need our help/hinderance to do it. Has anybody asked how the doe feeds her kids if the milk contains spiderwebs or silk?????? Just wondering.
