So trying to breed hardier crops to prevent famine,

or which provide greater yields or whatever, is a bad thing too?

It is when the seeds cannot be saved for planting the next year

and the crop growers can only buy the seed from american business at an exorbitant price

Of course, nuclear and biological weapons are morally indefensible.

Why are you choosing to direct your anger at medical science?

And let us ignore the fact that GM crops have created golden rice (I think it had a better name than that but I forget it)

which was normal rice but had Vitamin A added which could potentially stop the millions of deaths and permenant blindness which occurs in the third world. But let's ignore that and ban it on moral grounds, and let all the children die instead.
