Um, they are safe to eat... 
From Cornell Alliance for Science

Thank You for sharing the link... lucky you RTBoss who accepts that

I for my part still have hard time believing it's safe to eat GMOs. It's even more difficult for me to believe that for instance Monsanto's roundup does not cause cancer... :/ 
anyway I prefer to go organic & non-gmo if possible, here where I live it still is possible to buy vegetables that are organic and not genetically modified... or at least that's what our local farmers claim, I hope they are honest

Luck has nothing to do with accepting what is scientifically valid.  It's a choice at that point: you do or you don't.

You're also attempting to associate two separate things and say that they are both true because one is true.  I can believe that Round Up causes cancer, and I can believe that Monsanto is a huge company with a death grip on it;s market and too much money and power to fail to be able to do whatever it wants, thus resulting in the company being run purely for profit at whatever cost to whatever and whomever else because that is how people act when they have no morals and no consequences, and when a company has the money, power and influence of Monsanto, that's what follows.

But that doesn't make GMOs unsafe to eat.  What you're failing to understand is that ALL organisms are "genetically modified organisms" in that they all were formed through natural random genetic mutations (modification) at one point or another.  Just because we are now doing it manually doesn't automatically make everything that has been genetically modified by humans "unsafe to eat".

It is the expression of the genes, not the genes themselves, that make a food safe or unsafe to eat.  So if they genetically modify corn to glow at night, but that corn is otherwise identical to the parent corn, that corn will be safe to eat as long as the mechanism that causes bio-luminescence is safe for humans to eat, for example.

What they're trying to do with GMOs is make them produce bigger crops, more frequently, with better visual appeal, better flavor, better storage/transport capacity and be resistant to insects, disease and drought.  Unless some aspect of how that adjustment is expressed is poisonous, there's not really very much chance that a GMO is going to be damaging to your health unless perhaps it somehow becomes indigestible because you lack some sort of digestive mechanism to digest it.  Since poisons generally produce rapid and/or obvious effects, we can see that GMOs are pretty unlikely to be poisonous.  As a result, the chance of GMOs being problematic otherwise is relatively low, and is likely limited to things like the requiring of a new enzyme to digest it.  But we already have things like gluten intolerance and that is the result of naturally genetically modified wheat; lactose intolerance, in response to naturally genetically modified cows; etc.

In the end, if you're not willing to do the research to try to prove both sides of the argument wrong, you're just going to end up cherry picking whatever you want to believe.
