I don't feel we should leave God out of this . I think that is what is wrong
with ag. today they leave God out . they think they are making the stuff
grow. they are creating and changing life on earth and playing God. take
GMO for an example . the main reason I don't like them is because a lot and
I mean a lot of folks trust their God with how they live what they eat and
etc and it is part of their ideology. I remember reading how a ag man set
about to make life easier for folks in this one town. these folks don't eat
pork. this ag mans idea was to take restrant leftovers and feed them to the
pigs . good idea but he left religion out of it and what he got was a riot
because the people were mad at raising all the pigs because few there ate
pork. so you leave
God out and you make many folks mad and you loose because people have more
faith in God then the government folks that don't care about God or morals
or ethics and all that come with it. many folks in lots of religions don't
eat pork,or cow or meat etc. and when the USDA lets man put pig genes in
plants etc. and does not tell folks what they are doing they are making
folks that have been trying to live a good life mad. . They are directly
fooling the people by not telling them what up. when the USDA first started
releasing their GMO there was great talk on the net about why not release
this or why not release that. So they stop with the public input and now
who knows what they are doing. they don't want to hear from the people
because they want to keep up their wickedness. they went into the fool the
people mode. that's what the USDA does best fools the people. Well what
the people don't know can hurt them. you want to take God out of ag. I
feel a higher power than me is making my crops grow. If it was me I would
make every tree bare fruit the same size like u see in the store and ever
tree would be the same size. but u see I just add water and a little care
but it is God that does all the work around here. They want to take
God out of it. we can all see that. they don't care about what people
believe only what the USDA believe. they think the USDA is God. and the
USDA thinks they are the God of ag. hehe
LOL. LOL and rolling on the floor. they think they are God hehe .

It is just
to bad they are messing up life on earth for the rest of us. I cast my one
vote for God. Give me God anyday over the USDA. Put morals and ethics back
into ag.and back in to Government. they sit in Moses seat but don't know
Moses law.
