... Genetic manipulations can result in unanticipated harmful effects, and because genetically engineered foods are not tested sufficiently, this experiment not only jeopardizes the health of individuals, but could also lead to global food shortages and extensive ecological hazards. ... It is impossible to predict the impact of genetic food, it is a matter of waiting for and observing future consequences. ... Unlike chemical or nuclear contamination, genetic pollution is perpetual. It can never be reversed or cleaned up; genetic mistakes will be passed on to all future generations of a species. ...
Supporters of genetic engineering say the gene splicing process is accurate and precise. ... Many weaknesses in plants, animals, and humans have their foundations in minute flaws in the genetic code. ... Genetic engineering is profit driven rather than science driven. ...
Genetic engineering poses the greatest danger of any technology yet introduced. The damaging effects of genetic engineering are irreversible, but we have the capability to prevent a catastrophe before it occurs.
