    I don't accept your theory that Greenpeace and Exxon are equivalent. Or that your use of the word funding is the same in both cases.

      I'm staggered. I think you said something intended as a reply, but i'll be damned if I can make one iota of sense out of it.

        And where's the basis for "believing Greenpeace thinks their research is unbiased[^]"? :rolleyes:

          Why? One exists to push an extreme anti capitalist / envronmentalist agenda (up to and including the banning of chlorine chemistry), the other to sell petroleum products. Surely it is obvious what answers either organisation wants?

            It has to be reviewed to be disproved.

                That's not at all what you said. You said, "You also claim that Greenpeace thinks their research is unbiased, which is probably true." Mine was an accurate quote and yours is a restatement. I'll just assume that you admit your folly, given the extent you're going through to restate what you originally said. You'll never admit it, though.

                                    It took a minute to find that. I suspect it would not be hard to find others.

                                        link[^]

                                        Greenpeace said a study it had commissioned that was published in the
                                        journal Archives of Environmental Contamination and Technology showed rats fed for
                                        90 days on Monsanto's MON863 maize showed "signs of toxicity" in the liver and
                                        kidneys.

                                        And...

                                        "It is the first time that independent research, published in a peer-
                                        reviewed journal, has proved that a GMO authorized for human consumption presents
                                        signs of toxicity," Arnaud Apoteker, a spokesman for Greenpeace France said in
                                        statement.

                                        I also find it interesting that a group which includes such organizations as PETA among its "comprehensive list of all [their] favourite sites[^]" would commission a study designed to induce cancer toxicity in rats. Of course, I guess that comes as no surprise. After all, they are leading global warming advocates[^].

                                        Christ. If I had to eat corn for 90 days straight, I'd be showing signs of toxicity too. I don't care if it's biodynamic soil, organic seed, and homeopathic water!!! Marc
