  1. Re:Lobbyists on California Wants Genetically Modified Foods To Be Labelled · · Score: 1

    It would be like if a Muslim who was too lazy to read the Quran demanded that everyone label food to cater to their beliefs, and it is just as wrong.

    Even though the Muslim does read the Koran the food is labelled. You pay for it when you purchase the product.

    What, do Muslims have no choice about eating Halal because it isn't labeled by law?

    But it is.and you pay for it.

    Just an interesting sidenote. Marijuana can be changed from diploid to polyploid by soaking the seeds in colchicine. The polyploid product grows huge and has amazing yield but gives you cancer fast.

    Gosh, patents are really awful.

    The most awful part of it all is the way they are written. It just makes me want to frag lawyers.

    The USA does not require citizens to get permission to leave the country.

    Try taking a vacation overseas if you owe the IRS a reasonable sum. They will revoke your passport.

  14. More humanity from the Journal of Medical Ethics on Genetically Engineering Babies a Moral Obligation, Says Ethicist · · Score: 1

    Abstract
    Abortion is largely accepted even for reasons that do not have anything to do with the fetus' health. By showing that (1) both fetuses and newborns do not have the same moral status as actual persons, (2) the fact that both are potential persons is morally irrelevant and (3) adoption is not always in the best interest of actual people, the authors argue that what we call ‘after-birth abortion’ (killing a newborn) should be permissible in all the cases where abortion is, including cases where the newborn is not disabled.
