The bottom line is among the independent peer-reviewed studies MANY either prove outright harmfulness while others more conservatively call for further studies to see if the indications of harmfulness can be given further evidence. Nope. So far you have not provided a single such article. The one article you claimed showed harmfulness was noted by the authors *not* to show such harmfulness. The article you quoted about sister chromatid exchange admitted within the article that the findings were equivocal. In fact, the peer-reviewed studies show just the opposite. The better-controlled and more rigorous the study is, the less likely it is to show any effect. Those that have shown *equivocal* effects admit that they have no power. Funny that stuff happening as recently as 2002 and 2003 is, to you, two decades ago.A fifty year history of lying I did document; the earliest in the 1950s, much more in the 1960s, more still in the 1980s and 1990s, it's still going on now. [blah blah blah] Yes, yes. We all know you hate Monsanto. The question at hand, however, is whether or not RoundUp us harmful. The overwhelming evidence is that it is not. The peer-reviewed studies indicate it is not. And all the sidebar bullshit about how much you hate Monsanto doesn't change that. billo |
