The Culture of Seed Rape

Rape – The ultimate use of force and control. A forcefull invasion of such a personal nature, that the very essence of the victim is left in shattered pieces on the ground.

Seed – The beginning of a new life cycle.

It all begins with the seed. If you want to radically redesign life on this planet, you start with the seed. The beginning of life. Forcibly mixing genes through genetic engineering to create patented mutations is the epitome of rape, and the result is a shattered ecological system. As for the replacement “life?” Well, it may not be life as we know it at all.

The first living organism to carry and pass down to future generations an expanded genetic code has been created by American scientists, paving the way for a host of new life forms whose cells carry synthetic DNA that looks nothing like the normal genetic code of natural organisms.

For billions of years, the history of life has been written with just four letters — A, T, C and G, the labels given to the DNA subunits contained in all organisms. That alphabet has just grown longer, researchers announce, with the creation of a living cell that has two ‘foreign’ DNA building blocks in its genome.

Hailed as a breakthrough by other scientists, the work is a step towards the synthesis of cells able to churn out drugs and other useful molecules. It also raises the possibility that cells could one day be engineered without any of the four DNA bases used by all organisms on Earth.

“What we have now is a living cell that literally stores increased genetic information,” says Floyd Romesberg, a chemical biologist at the Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, California, who led the 15-year effort. Their research appears online today in Nature.

This is the very essence of rape.

Consider this:

In 31 states, paternal rapists are allowed to sue for custody and visitation rights like any other father. In the case of seed rape, the rapist owns the seed and all progeny resulting from that rape.

We live in a culture where rape is becoming more and more acceptable. A way of life. But do we really want to live in a world designed as a product of rape? A product of genetic mutations created by force to be part natural, part synthetic, and owned by mega-corporations with profit as their only motive? Is giving the rapist custody of the child really acceptable under any circumstances?

The marketing strategy for genetically engineered abominations is that nature is far too messy and uncontrollable, so genetic engineering is needed to straighten a bent system out. To redesign it to be more predictable and better. In whose eyes? Since when is rape acceptable? Since when does forcing nature to comply to artificial constructs in order to be torn apart and redesigned as a mutation, patched together like some sort of artificial construct with synthetic DNA acceptable, and even superior?

And just what will the consequences of unleashing these artificial constructs, the products of extreme genetically engineered rape, be? We know that current genetically engineered plants spread their genes across nations, polluting natural crops uncontrollably and without any form of adequate restrictions. We are rapidly losing the choice of whether we want these mutations or are simply forced into accepting them because they will be the only things left, having polluted everything in their path. We are becoming the victim of a rape so violent, so forceful, and so complete that the seed – the beginning of the life cycle, will no longer be able to be recognized. An artificial construct owned by the rapist through the patenting system.

We are losing our ability to choose as we quickly advance, DNA in hand, towards a terminator planet filled with only genetically engineered, artificial constructs controlled by the very rapist that forced it’s polluted genetic material into it the first place. Will the rapist win? Will he gain custody of the entire ecological system through genetically engineered rape? It’s up to you and me. No one else. The buck stops here.
