I must criticize the inherent nature of this resolution. In order to evaluate ideas and claims, we must compare how hypotheses pair with real world evidence, which are often summarized in the form of scientific studies.
“This is because we are significantly more likely not to see evidence for a hypothesis when it is false than not to see it when it's true — some assertions demand that the universe be screaming with supporting evidence, so when that evidence is not actually observed, it counts against it. The idea is often, but fallaciously, summarized as "absence of evidence is evidence of absence."
America has been made stupid because of our food problem. We have seen a mental illness rise like never before. We have poor souls that are 800 pounds. Plus this generation is the dumbest generation to have ever exist.This is all because our goverment poisons are food supply with insane chemicals. The average babies born today is born with 300 man made chemicals.
All of the foods that have been genetically modified besides rice are foods that are more easily absorb by the body and effect nearly the entire body when eaten.Corn is turned into corn syrup. Corn syrup does the same thing as oils it is more easily absorb by the body and effects nearly the entire body when eaten. Same with yeast. yeast effect almost the entire body when eaten.Soy effects nearly the entire body when consumed. Canola oil effect's the entire body when consumed. Rice is because they are always complain about overpopulation. It is the exception.I believe They chose foods that are more easily effected by the body and effect the entire body so the effects can damage us more easily.
They said smoking was safe, They lied. They could be lying here to.
Occam's Razor is on fire here as well. This is a huge conspiracy of which there is no evidence for. In other words, very improbable.
Plants have medical properties in them. What would the medical properties do when you change the dna in a plant. Lets say a plant helped with the kidney. Could the medical properties damage the kidney ow because they screwed up with the medicine and it damages you.canola oil helps with the brainCould this effect cause damage to the brain instead of healing it because we tampered with it's DNA.
The possible benefits of genetic engineering include:
- More nutritious food
- Tastier food
- Disease- and drought-resistant plants that require fewer environmental resources (such as water and fertilizer)
- Less use of pesticides
- Increased supply of food with reduced cost and longer shelf life
- Faster growing plants and animals
- Food with more desirable traits, such as potatoes that produce less of a cancer-causing substance when fried
- Medicinal foods that could be used as vaccines or other medicines

I'm going to count R3 as a concession (otherwise it's lack of relevance to this debate would make it effectively a forfeit, reducing the debate to an FF).
Pro,
Sorry to hear about your car trouble.
Also sometimes on arguments less is more, and sometimes less is not enough. Your smoking is safe point, was a great hook to bait us in, but there was no follow through on it. Other points which are likely only interesting to you, you expanded badly into the realm of Gish Gallops (that 200 types of plants are turned into oil can be stated as such, no one benefits from the list of them).
Con,
Nice explanation on why the fear of changes to oil are unfounded and miscategorized.
Concession.
