Those things are messing with our bodies too. But a lot of people in office who cite possible sources of danger of the pill (and I would not rule that out), also insist on the safety of hormone-laced foods, meats, genetically modified organisms, shampoos et cetera. That does not make much sense. In fact, the current US administation complains a lot that those (in other countries) who have doubts about these technologies and applications thereof are taking an unlawful and illegal stance!


The question is: what is natural these days?

All of this bothers me but now trying to find alternatives is useless unless you own your own farm/ranch and use natural means to grow/harvest your fruits/vegetables/meats.

I didn't want to get into it too much because it really is a seperate topic all to it's own. I almost wonder if a topic split is required here so we can discuss this as well.
