RE: The Minister of Agriculture & Agri-Food
Omni replied to SunnysideTroll's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
How much can it cost to add 3 letters to a label? -

There are DNA differences or it wouldn't be a GMO. And a lot of the pro GMO research is funded by non other than Monsanto. I like the idea of being able to increase the worlds food supply but let's make sure we are doing it safely. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-truth-about-genetically-modified-food/ -

There are opposing views on various impacts of GMO's including human, environmental and agricultural health. All I want is to be able to make the choice. I'm sure the Sifto salt people don't like having the excess salt listed on the package of so many things, but if you want to keep your BP under control it's good to know. -

There is evidence that GMO's have negative impacts not only to the body, but also to the rest of agriculture through super bugs and super weeds, and also to the environment. So I can decide to support the industry or not if I know what I am buying. -

I like being able to pick up a product and read the label. It helps me make decisions as to what I'm planning to put in my body. A GMO label would be just as helpful as say, the salt content etc. -
Democrats Are In Disarray...Not GOP
Omni replied to bush_cheney2004's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
The EC elected Trump, not the people. Obama's legacy will be just fine and he may go down as one of the most popular presidents in the nation's history. Trump on the other hand will be in contravention of the Constitution the moment he signs into office, Obama is probably popping corn and getting ready to enjoy the show as we speak. -

He's just giving Netanyahu a slap for barging in to address congress without a proper invite. I reckon Obama is having a great time. -
What's with all the "" quotation marks? Are you not confident?

So we're waiting to hear your version of American black culture.

Who will Trump pick for VP in 2016?
Omni replied to August1991's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
The EC certainly didn't work. They were set up in part to protect against guys like Trumpy boy. -
I spent some "innocent times" working on Kish Island.

Do you mean like how slavery was racist?

Very true. After I overnight in Dubai I jumped on a plane to Afghanistan where of course, in certain areas you could get in some pretty serious trouble for even sniffing a beer. That troubles me no end, obviously. But at the same time there were women walking around Kabul bare faced who taught in the university there. So even within the same country you can see a diversity of how the religion, (and as I said I hate 'em all basically) is applied. I reckon that little Christianity scheme has similar realities as we speak.
-
My point is that all religions place, or have placed inappropriate limits on people. And Christians are as much murderers as anybody else due to those professors of fear. We have advanced somewhat, but we're not squeaky clean, although I agree we have advanced by simply being able to afford education so we could cast off the strange beliefs. Tarring all Muslim's with the same brush would be the same as tarring all Christians with the same brush. I used to drink beer in a hotel in Dubai with Muslim men and women. Believe it or not.
-
It depends on where in the ME you are referring to. Dubai isn't Kabul. Khartoum isn't Juba. And Saudi is not Canada. People who wear various icons of their particular religion do so for various reasons. Please lets at least try to raise our heads above this narrow minded view that that seems to permeate this thread. Or, just go ahead and sign onto you know who's narrow minded version of the world, who I suspect hasd never been off his ass far enough to get beyond the friggin grocery store!

Which is the only version you seem to be aware of. But that will not likely ever change. So put on your tin hat and get under your bed.

America under President Trump
Omni replied to betsy's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
And his attempts at leadership are quite humorous I must say. And thankfully he is YOUR leader. -
America under President Trump
Omni replied to betsy's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
I guess simply because he is another one who ignores the evidence and reckons it's a sham created by the Chinese. -
America under President Trump
Omni replied to betsy's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Lots of things have affected how mother nature "moved the weather furniture around" such as volcanoes releasing tone of sequestered CO2. I doubt she has ever had to deal with well over a billion cars before though. And yes, I will be gone long before the full effects of that come to pass, and that does help me to enjoy life. What about reincarnation though? What if my house is under water when I come back? (I mean physically not economically)
