Correct. Which is we have not done, and the scientific community, AKA peer reviewed science has a lot to say about GMO.

If you actually read peer reviewed journals you would realize that different researcher rarely agree with each other (come to the same conclusion), each new article to the body of literature goes back and forth with previous work in the study area, usually expands only on a bit of knowledge and is most likely counter-argued in following articles. Only relatively small portion of the knowledge is actually thought to be set in stone.
You have to be kidding me. This is about the opposite to the actual truth of the peer reviewed world of science. A study is put into the peer reviewed journals, and it is either accepted by others confirming it, or shot down. The VAST majority of peer reviewed science is studies slightly adjusting well accepted science, almost never do you see any new studies that challenge accepted science that turn our understanding on its head.

Science is about searching for truth, not hand-picking research results that happen to support your position when you misleadingly present them without proper context.
Which is why anti-GMO people are ridiculous because they go against the science of GMO. There is nearly 30 years of peer reviewed science that supports the safety of GMO.
