I posted an article on facebook recently with the title: "Is monsanto evil?"

It was posted by the Skeptics guide to the universe facebook page. It was short, well referenced, logical.

Now I know I have many anti-GMO people in my stream. I am part of the goa-scene in Israel and Germany. Some people don't like facing the facts.

Same situation with my aunt who is an anti-vaxxer. She doesn't like it when I question her beliefs and when she feels cornered she says that the industry is paying universities to teach wrong things at lectures. Imagine that. The university teaching false things because the industry is financing it. I think I lost my aunt...
