They can build their own animals, plants, trees, and food crops. The next step is that the genetic engineering industry wants to patent the genes used in their manufacture of new organisms. By claiming ownership of genes they are gradually taking control of life itself. All over the world when non-indigenous species have been introduced into new environments they have caused long term damage. We know that changing one element of the environment sets off a domino effect of cascading changes throughout entire eco-systems.
Genes are complex and work together to perform certain functions.
Many of the trials conducted on genetically engineered organisms have gone badly wrong- cotton crops, designed to fight off insects, were still devoured. Never before have genes from bacteria, rats, or scorpions, to name a few, been part of the human diet. Yet tests on the safety of new foods containing strange genes have been terrifyingly inadequate. Tests have focused more on limited field trials and not on the impact on human health and the environment. Governments have expressed fears, for example, that crops containing an ampicillin resistance gene could undermine the treatment of human and animal disease.
