California Confirms 'Roundup' Will Be Labeled "Cancer Causing"

hahaha Good point.
Erm, if you folks knew anything about chemistry, one chemical compound might not cause death, 2 might not cause death. etc. But, a particular combination of or in compounds may enable another combination of chemicals that enable a physical disability ...... or death eventually.
We've been on boiled-water advisory because of beaver fever or whatever since I can remember but we don't boil water we drink here. We use a few screens to catch the chunks of wood, leaves, etc. and drink. I asked a dude from the water board when he came out to check the creek here why and he said it's because people who are used to drinking bottled water and treated sewer water in cities are sensitive to water bacteria and other bugs so when they drink water that's not been boiled out here, they get a bit wobbly. Their immune systems failed to protect them apparently. That got me to thinking that must be why people get the runs after a lifetime of beef-eating and suddenly ingesting a nice elk steak.
Our local apiarist said that the decline in bee population was because of a virus, not pesticides.
It is hard to imagine Monsanto as a benevolent saintly organization only interested in the improvement of mankind. It's like trusting bankers.
For somebody who is anti-religious, you certainly like using scripture to argue your points.
1. Which proves Roundup would be a silly choice if attempting suicide.
2. Don't eat Tide pods except in a turkey sandwich with lot of mayo & Mustard.
BTW drinking the fluid that powers your auto is a bad idea too.
Meanwhile back at the ranch...................

Microbial Biologist Says Biotech Is Like a Religion, and it Is Failing
No one bats 1000, but according to Ignacio Chapela, a microbiologist from UC Berkeley in California, the biotech industry has utterly failed. He says they’ve only come up with 2 genetically modified traits in 40 years despite fouling our air, water, and soil, while genetically engineering our food to withstand copious amounts of toxic chemicals.
Chapela says that no one talks about just how badly biotech is progressing, despite billions spent on research and the forever-promise of new organisms that repel pests, or to supposedly stop malaria from spreading, or some other biotech-specific trait that they have yet to master.
Chapela points out that GMO scientists have become like priests, with a ‘central dogma’ that specific traits are determined by certain genes. If that were true, we could have put wings on pigs to make them fly. He explains:

Monsanto’s Sealed Documents Reveal the Truth behind Roundup’s Toxicological DangersMonsanto’s Sealed Documents Reveal the Truth behind Roundup’s Toxicological Dangers | Global Research - Centre for Research on Globalization
The two are as far apart as you and a clue. You should have some blood tests.
(THIS IS A LONG ARTICLE BASED ON MONSANTOS OWN RESEARCH FINDINGS)DB
There is now an enormous cache of evidence on both scientific and legal grounds that Monsanto in fact conducted numerous studies in the 1970s and 1980s on glyphosate’s toxicity and health risks and intentionally sealed this research from independent and public review and scrutiny. As with Big Tobacco’s proprietary claims that prevented the FDA from publicly warning Americans about the dangers of smoking, the EPA has sat on Monsanto’s own deleterious data for decades.

Anthony Samsel is an independent research scientist working internationally in the interest of public health and the environment. He is a member of the Union of Concerned Scientists, and a former scientist and consultant at Arthur D. Little, one of the world’s leading management consulting firms. Now retired, Samsel has devoted much of his independent research on Roundup’s toxicological characteristics and bioactivity. Unable to gain access to research reports and data Monsanto submitted to the EPA through FOIAs, he turned to his senator’s office, who assisted in the procurement of studies and reports he sought. Months later he received a hoard of scientific documents, over 15,000 pages worth, covering Monsanto’s complete glyphosate research.
With his co-investigator Dr. Stephanie Seneff at MIT the two have been reviewing Monsanto’s data. Their conclusion is Monsanto’s claims about glyphosate’s safety are patently false. The company has known for almost four decades that glyphosate is responsible for a large variety of cancers and organ failures. Clearly it was for this reason that Monsanto demanded the data and reports to be sealed and hidden from public scrutiny as proprietary trade secrets.
During an exclusive interview on the Progressive Radio Network on September 4, Samsel stated that Monsanto used an industry trick to dismiss evidence about glyphosate’s risks in its own research. “Monsanto misrepresented the data,” says Samsel, “and deliberately covered up data to bring the product [glyphosate] to market.”[13]
One of Monsanto’s claims is that glyphosate doesn’t bio-accumulate in tissues, rapidly bio-degrades and is excreted from the body readily. Contrary to this claim, Monsanto carried out meticulous studies to determine levels of accumulation and the organs, tissues and cells glyphosate reaches. Glyphosate was radio labeled with carbon 14 and given in 10 mg doses to seven groups of animals, male and female. After only 24 hours, the toxic chemical was found in the lungs and all body fluids: lymph, blood, urine and cerebral spinal fluid. Glyphosate also accumulated in the bone by 30 ppm and in the bone marrow by 4 ppm. Monsanto’s studies were comprehensive. It found an accumulation of the chemical in red cells, thyroid, uterus, colon, testes and ovaries, shoulder muscle, nasal mucosa, heart, lung, small intestine, abdominal muscle and the eyes.

You will find that many self-proclaimed Christians are anti-religious too. There is plenty of useful information in the bible but taken literally, much of it is nonsense.
Cliffy, after a few years of reading about the meaning of the religion it got to me that most people who fling the word about don't know what it the word religion means. I certainly didn't. Natural philosophy is and was it's ages long study of binding back or re ligio to the source life and it has nearly nothing ti\o do wuth the modern corruptions of the subject. I know you know I just wonder why such a popular topic gets very little serious investigation by it's adherants. I've read some ideas about that.
Uh, its a polar bear that starved to death. I could quote something more recent but you would just poo poo the source like a good little conservative sheeple.
No they didn't think the world was flat. Yes the bio-tech industry is doing well, it is not doing good though.
Polar bears have been dying from various causes since forever.
BTW how do YOU know it starved to death? Looked to me that it had been getting stoned drinking Roundup.
It may well have been forced to sit through a lecture by that uber charlatan Suzuki and decided to commit suicide.
BTW polar bears are thriving these days. Sorry 'bout that.
Bronze Age savages did indeed think the earth to be flat.

Excuse me Mr Gilgamesh I believe you have me confused with another poster. I don't doubt the polar bear populations healthy numbers and I certainly have never said one word in favour of Dr Suzukis bullsheet. However you seem to have been convinced of the modern myth of the unintelligence of the ancients. If you think they were that stupid I would like to hear your ideas about how you think you got here with such dumb relatives.
Notice the roundup victims inability to form a comprehensive sentence. This is well documented in clinical studies of weed killer adicts.
