exactly! Newguy, you've very excellently expressed this concept where I've often found myself searching for the right words and phrases. I agree that the looming business threat of regulations based on misinformation campaigns combined with the unbelievable ignorance of many organic disciples accounts for my initial unreasoned distaste for the organic movement. Upon reflection, I don't have anything against organic food, and am happy for folks to produce, buy, and consume it if they choose. I do find I am continually frustrated by the fear-mongering and wanton disregard of science, fact, and reason in the discussion of organic vs. non-organic foodstuffs (from both sides). Thanks for your thoughts. |
