Exactly. The reality is exposed by how the organic people think of
biosolids. It seems it is 'organic' to fertilize with the excrement of
any animal but that of a human being. Why human excrement is excluded
from the list of acceptable organic fertilisers is unfounded by science
or rationality, and that it has nothing to do with GM is expositive of
the fear basis of the Luddite Left.
