What's wrong with seedless watermelons? Are GMOs forbidden by Christian law?

probably same reason why some are anti birth control. kinda playing against gods role by manipulating the natural result.

Should someone tell them why watermelons are so big and delicious in the first place?

Because god put them there as a tasty treat for his most faithful hippopotamuses :)

They need to learn about bananas.

Also like, 100% of all agriculture and livestock. Fuck. Look at what we did to wolves. If god didn't want us to fuck around with genetics they wouldn't have made them malleable.

Obviously agriculture is a lie. Cows and sheep and donkeys and chickens and dogs always existed exactly as they do now since that's how God made them and they never changed.

Or something.

Well, the universe was create 6000 years ago so obviously domesticated animals have always been as they are. /s

You know the saying, "it didn't happen if it isn't in writing"?

That must apply to all of prehistory then, right?

Funny thing is they aren't even GMOs, they're hybrids between tetraploid and diploid watermelon cultivars. You could do it yourself in your backyard if you can find tetraploid seed for sale, or make it yourself with colchicine

Are GMOs forbidden by Christian law?

No, AFAIK they aren't

I think it's just a joke and not a real movement or something
