Something
Goes Horribly Wrong In The Laboratory!
The movie "The Fly" with Vincent Price made in 1958 is about Scientist Andre Delambre who becomes obsessed with his latest creation, a matter transporter. He has varying degrees of success with it. He eventually decides to use a human subject, himself, with tragic consequences. During the transference, his DNA becomes merged with a fly, which was accidentally let into the machine. He becomes a Hybrid with the fly's head and one of it's arms and the fly winds up with Andre's head and arm.
This early Sci-Fi Thriller can be read as today's 2006 headlines - "be afraid - really be afraid!"
Genetic Armageddon Introduces you to the fast biotech experimentation that has far reaching deadly effects on all people, food, animals and environment - this is the unnatural mixing of DNA
The Chaos Story
1. Adverse Effects on the Environment - Altered Seed
The "terminator seed" called as such because it is genetically engineered not to produce seed - creating a corporal control on food causing farmers to buy anew each year seed to grow their crop - this also eliminates the home gardener
2. Transgenic human-animal embryo's - why is this done we ask - because the belief that these creature hybrids are going to improve our future!
3. Moth genes being fused with potatoes; pigs given human growth genes; fish being implanted with cattle growth genes; tomatoes being bred with flounders; human embryo's that are being transgenically altered with rabbits, mice, etc.
The danger also is to realize that food is given FDA seal of approval on the huge corporations who do their own testing - the FDA accepts these reports without independent testing and accepts those corporations at face value that their biotech creations are safe.
Well, if they aren't - we could end up like "The Fly". We have a new word called Chimera's which is a mixture of two or more species in one body. Not all are considered troubling, though. For example, faulty human heart valves are routinely replaced with ones taken from cows and pigs. The surgery—which makes the recipient a human-animal chimera—is widely accepted. And for years scientists have added human genes to bacteria and farm animals. See Cellular Memory
Please note, these manufacturers are not compelled to label these altered food products you are feeding to your family - and genetically modified with what?
Viruses as a Food Additive?
Take for instance the AP news story from Friday, August 18, 2006 - The viruses (6 of them) are the first to win FDA approval for use as a food additive, said Andrew Zajac, of the regulatory agency's office of food additive safety. Source
"WASHINGTON (AP) -- A mix of bacteria-killing viruses can be safely sprayed on cold cuts, hot dogs and sausages to combat common microbes that kill hundreds of people a year, federal health officials said Friday in granting the first-ever approval of viruses as a food additive."The combination of six viruses is designed to be sprayed on ready-to-eat meat and poultry products, including sliced ham and turkey, said John Vazzana, president and chief executive officer of manufacturer Intralytix Inc.
"The special viruses, called bacteriophages, are meant to kill strains of the Listeria monocytogenes bacterium, the Food and Drug Administration said in declaring it safe to use on ready-to-eat meats prior to their packaging.
"The viruses are the first to win FDA approval for use as a food additive, said Andrew Zajac, of the regulatory agency's office of food additive safety.
"The bacterium the viruses target can cause a serious infection called listeriosis, primarily in pregnant women, newborns and adults with weakened immune systems. In the United States, an estimated 2,500 people become seriously ill with listeriosis each year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Of those, 500 die.
"Luncheon meats are particularly vulnerable to Listeria since once purchased they typically aren't cooked or reheated, which can kill harmful bacteria like Listeria, Zajac said. [Emphasis mine; do you know many people who eat raw hot dogs or sausage?]
"The preparation of bacteriophages -- the name is Greek for 'bacteria-eater'-- attacks only strains of the Listeria bacterium and not human or plant cells, the FDA said.
"As long as it used in accordance with the regulations, we have concluded it's safe, Zajac said. People normally come into contact with phages through food, water and the environment, and they are found in our digestive tracts, the FDA said.
"Consumers won't be aware that meat and poultry products have been treated with the spray, Zajac added. The Department of Agriculture will regulate the actual use of the product.
"The viruses are grown in a preparation of the very bacteria they kill, and then purified. The FDA had concerns that the virus preparation potentially could contain toxic residues associated with the bacteria. However, testing did not reveal the presence of such residues, which in small quantities likely wouldn't cause health problems anyway, the FDA said.
"'The FDA is applying one of the toughest food-safety standards which they have to find this is safe,' said Caroline Smith DeWaal, director of food safety for the Center for Science in the Public Interest, a consumer advocacy group. 'They couldn't approve this product if they had questions about its safety.'
"Intralytix, based in Baltimore, first petitioned the FDA in 2002 to allow the viruses to be used as a food additive. It has since licensed the product to a multinational company, which intends to market it worldwide, said Intralytix president Vazzana. He declined to name the company but said he expected it to announce its plans within weeks or months.
"Intralytix also plans to seek FDA approval for another bacteriophage product to kill E. coli bacteria on beef before it is ground, Vazzana said.
"Scientists have long studied bacteriophages as a bacteria-fighting alternative to antibiotics."

We have already seen rats fed genetically modified potatoes that were "roundup" ready being produced by one of the leading genetic labs in America, whose offspring died at half-life.
People living downwind of some of the genetically modified wheat products have shown that they are developing respiratory problems.
The end result is that we don't know what these mutations will cause to the environment, people, animals, sea life, birds, water, our air and food...
Pastor Red responds: I have long believed such experimentation is what will lead to the literal fulfillment of Rev. 9:6-10:
"And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. 7 And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. 8 And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. 9 And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. 10 And they had tails like unto scorpions , and there were stings in their tails : and their power was to hurt men five months."So
