The lack of checks and balances is going to come back to bite us all, unfortunately...and all the scientists will say is, "We didn't know, this is not what we intended, but go ahead and keep us giving us your trust." It's really upsetting to me, because we are expected to have faith in a system that is supposed to be based on cold, hard evidence...and all the evidence is pointing to pretty willful destruction of the most basic of things: the way we nourish the bodies Allah has given us!

The video is not viewable in the UK unfortunately :( There was a big hoo ha about GM crops and non organic food in the UK a while back, and although I couldn't be bothered by it all, I love the Islamic (and Jewish thinking to that respect) about the type of food/method of growing food that we should eat, especially with meat. It's healthy, scientifically sensible, and keeps the food chain in check (regardless of what the animal rights campaigners say!). As for GM crops - I think it is a very short sighted view scientifically; I think in years to come, when our illnesses are attributed to these crops, someone will turn around and say - "Maybe GM crops was a bad idea"... So I guess nothing will change! Hey salaams!
