Hey guys! I need some help with a discussion please...

Many types of genetically modified plants have been developed, grown and eaten for many years in the United States. Currently, several agricultural companies are actively developing and researching GMO farm animals. What are the possible pros and cons of genetically modifying the animals people eat? Do you think the government should allow the development of GMO farm animals to continue?

Literally nothing...
I try to get my answers off of what other people say before me, but I'm stuck...
Alright, I have managed to write this.

For years, humans have been eating genetically modified foods and other products. Yes, they may not be the healthiest choice but we're still alive, aren't we? However, as be begin our future, I believe that we should not continue to do this. Why? Because its (key word) modified! Wouldn't you rather eat a chicken, cow, salad, or any other grown resource we eat that doesn't have any unnatural and/or unwanted artificial product? Yes, when we genetically modify our food products, it costs less to grow and process. On the other hand, it is not that safe. New products like this do not have that much information to go off of. It is potentially dangerous and personally, not my first choice of what/how I would like my food. Another con about genetically modifying our food is that is can create viruses and other unwanted bacteria. Some crops and animal farms use so many chemicals and other bi-products so they can make their "growth" better. You can make the growth better by using more natural resources, not fake substances. So, I believe that we should NOT carry on with genetically modifying our crops, animals, and various other resources we consume.
Btw, if someone uses my answer, change the wording just a little bit. I don't want you to get in trouble.
I used no name's paragraph but I changed it up a little and got this.

Genetically modified foods and other products have been consumed by humans for many years. It's true that they aren't the healthiest choices, but they are still healthy choices, aren't they? However, I don't think we should keep doing this as we go forward. What's the reason? You wouldn't want to eat anything unnatural or/and unwanted artificially derived from a chicken, cow, pig, or salad, wouldn't you? We can grow and process food products cheaper when we genetically modify them. However, it's not so safe. As far as upcoming products are concerned, there isn't a great deal of information available to help consumers make informed decisions. I personally don't think this is the kind of food I would prefer and I would try to make sure that it is not dangerous. It is also important to note that genetically modifying our food may lead to the creation of viruses and other organisms that we do not want. The use of too many organic chemicals and other by-products to enhance the growth of certain crops and animals is a major concern for some farming operations. There are some ways you can improve growth by utilizing more natural resources, instead of fake ingredients. I believe that it is the right thing to stop genetically modifying our crops, animals, and a variety of other resources we consume in order to save the environment.

Thank you!
