Genetically modified mutant food, or ethically changed food distribution?

Question: Would you rather eat genetically modified foods grown without pesticides, or eat natural foods grown with pesticides?

Difficult as this question may be, I think its important to fully understand the background to this question before answering seriously.

Genetically modified foods (GMO's) are extremely common in North America, because of their fast growing rates and ability to grow in cold climates. GMO's are made when DNA from an existing organism is combined with it's DNA to create a new species, or enhanced species.
There are many different kinds of altered foods, so remember not to group them all in together.

In my personal opinion, even though it is unknown what the side effects of GMO's x bacteria/molds etc are, I think it is okay.
My major concern is with the hybrid plants x animals. At first I felt like this is wrong, because it is not "natural", but then I thought, would it have a conscienceness? Do animals have conscieness? Would a tomato with artic fish gene have a conscienceness?

"If Pluto isn't a planet... Then Midgets aren't people."

This is so silly. Did they REALLY have to officially classify Pluto as a dwarf? Who knows...

The interesting thing about this facebook group, is that people answer the question of "What's on YOUR mind?" and it amazes me to consider how many people are thinking different things right now, at the same time. And its funny, because these are pretty similar to mine! :P

Just trollin' Obama's facebook...

I actually love Obama's campaign and his goals. Here is his new strategy to involve Americans etc. which I personally think is pretty smart. Some people's reactions were really nice, and others were extreme, and some were just funny*.

* Some people really don't understand politics

Here are my favorites:

This person ^ I'm really proud of because a) no bragging and b) probably voted for the first time in their life :)

Reply to someone who said that it's not fair because undocumented people are not allowed to vote -.-

This person should boycott all automotive cars that run on oil. But I'm sure this person is too concerned with personal gain and freedom to have a car to bother doing so. And hey, while your at it, maybe you should get a job and stop complaining about wealth.

I agree(ish). ^ I think racism is why a lot of people don't vote, and prevents people from truly listening to what a politician has to say.

Clearly, fourteen year olds should really learn some manners and grow up and have enough education and experience to understand how the government and politics really are.
If this can't be achieved, I sentense her to 2 months of grounding for bad language.
