As people find out about the dangers of GMOs, the growing of organic foods and the use of natural farming methods are on the rise. However, is this a mute point, because GMO seeds,crops, and and insects can contaminate organic fields making them genetically modified. Take for example the story of the Australian organic farmer who lost his organic produce certification after his fields were contaminated by his neighbors GMO crops. What is your opinion? Do you have any ideas about how to stop this GMO contamination.

The only answer I see to expose the inferiority of GMO seeds, is if every town in America would grow one of my Selke BD Cherry Tomato Plants as seen in the video, "Giant Biodynamic Tomto Plant Refutes Genetic Engineering-- Monsanto. That's why I give my special biodynamic seeds away for free.

In early January of 2016, the EPA finally admitted that Neonicotinoids are to blame for the catastrophic deaths of honeybees. These pesticides that are made by Bayer,Sygenta, and Monsanto, have Neonicotinoids and other substances like Imidacloprid which are responsible for poisoning honeybees. A 2015 study in the United Kingdom, showed a correlation between honeybee colony deaths and Neonicotinoid pesticide usage. If honeybees continue to die our food supply would decrease significantly leading to shortages and higher food prices. With a link being established between Neonicotinoids and Imidacloprid pesticides and the death of honeybees, shouldn't the government ban these pesticides like they did DDT back in 1972?

They should be banned world wide.

Dear Mr. Rotheraine
Here is some more information for thought. California's EPA is the first state in the country to label glyphosate, the main ingredient in the Roundup herbicide, as a cancer-causing carcinogen. This action has prompted the agrochemical company Monsanto to file a lawsuit against California's Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment and the agency's acting director Lauren Zeise. Monsanto claims glyphosate does not present a carcinogenic risk to humans.

Intelligent Design seeks to take various elements and processes found in our universe and use them in such a way as to create an unique entity. ( I.E. a tomato plant) Can you explain, some of the processes and elements at work in creating your Biodynamic tomato plants?

New video update in the beginning in the forms of tomatoes. would be nice

I have to use the twenty year old videos because I bred out the heart shape and large oblong form from our Ratatouilles because they don't have the shelf life of the circular form. I did take your advice of placing new video with the old footage.

DEAR PHOTOFRY
What do you think of Mr. Rotheraine's actual Biodynamic tomatoes
and their physical presentation in this video ?
thank you,
Francis Klock.

Mr. Rotheraine, through his use of biodynamic agriculture, has shown the superiority of natural growing methods over the genetic altering methods developed by Monsanto and other genetic engineering companies. His Biodynamic Agriculture methods not only creates a higher yield, but a better quality looking tomato as compared to those that are genetically modified or grow with the use of chemicals. The presentation, by Mr. Rotheraine on the various shapes of these tomatoes reenforces the concept that heavenly forces are part of the equation that effect the genetic traits of his Biodynamic tomatoes.

I went to your website Rotheraine.com and came across an article titled" Honeybees and the Symbolic Significance of Formic and Oxalic Acid" by Gunther Hauk. Hauk stated in his article that without these acids no life processes could take place. Plants provide the life-giving substance oxalic acid while insects like bees, wasps, and ants create formic acid. According to Hauk, the insects provide formic acid for plants to develop, while the plants use oxalic acid to create food for the insects, thus a symbiotic relationship is established. Hauk also stated that the death of honeybees, is causing a decline in the natural vitality of crops and trees, as witnessed by farmers, gardeners, and forest rangers. With Monsanto and others companies Genetically Modifying plants and insects, could the life processes of plants and insects be altered with devastating consequences to all life?

If genetically engineered ants are permitted to be released into the environment the results will be as catastrophic as genetically engineered seeds !!

Dear Mr. Rotheraine____
After viewing your stimulating video in which you refute Darwin's theory of Earthly Evolution, I have 2 questions for you :
1) What is the reason that human cranial forms are round ?
2) Are our heads cosmic seeds for developing on Earth ?
Please reply.
Thanking you,
Francis Klock.

Dear Francis Klock,
Our cranial forms are round because they are the human seed for developing on earth. Do you understand the video ? How can I improve it ?

I recently read an article in the September 2008 edition of Psychology Today. The article titled " Nature's Bounty: Soil Salvation" by Daniel A. Marano talked about the health benefits of growing your own food. The story stated not only was eating the vegetables grown healthy, but the act of gardening itself helped benefit the health of the gardener. Mycobacturium Vaccae for example, is inhaled and ingested when people work in an organic garden. This and other mycobacturium can stimulate immune cells. lessen inflammation. rev up production of Serotonin, and help people cope with stress and anxiety. Dr Joel Wallach has also stated that ancient cultures used silt run off from glaciers or wood ash to fertilize their crops. These practices led to numerous health benefits from the added minerals in the soil. What are your thoughts on these practices?

That article is right on the money. We always see positive mood changes in the mentally challenged that garden in the Elm St. Biodynamic Garden.

I came across a news story the other day that claimed the Zika Virus is not the root cause of microcephaly. A group of Argentinean doctors believe the use of Pyroproxyfen, a chemical larvicide that produces malformations in mosquitos, is the cause of these birth defects. The chemical has been applied by the state to drinking water for the last 18 months to destroy the mosquito population. A sprayed version of this larvicide is called Pyriproxyfen, and has also been used. It is manufactured by Sumitomo , a reported partner of Monsanto. Do you think this could be another cover up since this story is not being reported and people who point to the larvicide as the cause of these birth defects are being labelled irrational?

Absolutely a cover up !

What part does elevation play in the development of plants? Take for example the elevations around Jerusalem, Jerusalem is 3800 ft above sea level, The Mount of Olives is over 2600 ft and the Garden of Gethsemane is located at the foot of the Mount of Olives. Do these variations in elevation have a dramatic impact on a plants growth? Where would your tomatoes do better in Jerusalem or in the Garden of Gethsemane?

Every 500 feet in altitude creates a different environment for plant growth. There are many other factors such as sunlight, wind conditions, slope of garden, rainfall,humidity of area and many others. If all these conditions are equal my intuition tells me the lower elevation of the Garden of Gethsemane would be best for all five of my tomato species.

Does the angle of the electromagnetic waves striking the earth have an affect on the development of the Selke Biodynamic Tomato Plant in regards to it's location on the earth? Take for example the distance from Jerusalem to the Garden of Gethsemane which is roughly half a mile or 2624 feet. Would this distance cause a major difference in plant development?
Reply
L.A. Rotheraine +photofry
Yes it would. Since I'm not famliar with the energy levels in that area I believe the Garden of Gethsemane would produce our giant 10 foot x 12 foot Selke BD Cherry Tomato Plant.

It appears that your philosophy of growing tomatoes has its roots (pun intended) in the theory of Intelligent Design. Do you agree with this model of thought?
Reply

Intelligent Design is the principle that I use to create my tomatoes. See the article Elohim and Agriculture on Rotheraine.com.

You state that the electromagnetic currents emanating from the heavenly bodies has an affect on the development of plants. Do the position of these heavenly bodies influence the characteristics of plants. Do these positions also effect the type of tomatoes that you have shown in this video?
Reply
L.A. Rotheraine +photofry
Yes to both . A good example is the color in plants. Mars creates the reds, Jupiter the yellow and whites, Saturn the blues/purples and the Sun the greens. They all mix to form the multifarious colors in the plant kingdom. Shapes and forms are also created by these energy interchanges between the earth and the heavens.

The evidence from researchers and scientists around the world continue to show GMOs have an adverse effect on human health. These studies on GMOs have caused more than 30 countries to ban them. A year ago Taiwan, passed new amendments to their food act. These amendments required mandatory food labeling on all GM foods, limiting the use of food additives, and required all GMO ingredients to be registered with the Taiwan government. Legislator Lin Shu-Fen said these changes have come about because GMO studies have shown a high connection between the prevalence of allergies, AUTISM, and other rare diseases. Do you agree with this statement? Do you believe these GMO bans will lead to a boycott of most all U.S. food exports?

The rise in autism will continue and can be directly linked to the introduction of genetically engineered foods. Lin Shu Fen should be in charge of the world' s food production. It will lead to a boycott of U.S. food exports.

Christians know that the position of the heavenly bodies are used to determine time and dates. I.E. Easter is the first Sunday after the first full moon on or after the Spring Equinox. This being said, how come Christians do not realize that the energy from the sun, moon, stars, and planets affect all life on earth? In the Bible, the wise men used stellar light to find the baby Jesus.

A recent story on Facebook stated that the Hungarian Government had more than 1000 acres of corn (maize) fields burned because GMO seeds were used. The Hungarian Government has banned all genetically modified seeds from its country. With the protests against GMO's, do you think that the United States will eventually ban GMO seeds and products in the near future given the recent scientific findings showing that GMO foods are bad for your health?

On the back of a dollar bill there is a small pyramid on top of the bigger pyramid which is called the capstone. If you look at the video, the heart shaped Ratatouille is really a small pyramid form, while the circular form of the Ratatouille is basically a spherical form like the capstone that recently, architect Miguel Perez-Sanchez and other researchers have discovered to be the real form of the capstone at the top of the Pyramid of Cheops. Why didn't you specifically state that in your video?
Reply
L.A. Rotheraine +photofry
Because I just learned that the capstone atop the Great Pyramid was a circular, global form not a baby pyramid. When I learned this the other day I watched this video again and noticed that what I had been calling a heart shaped tomato actually resembled a pyramid as much as a heart.

As part of a bill signed by President Obama back in March, was an act called the Monsanto Protection Act. This act would shield Monsanto seeds and other genetically modified crops approved by the Agriculture Department to be grown from legal action in the courts. What are your thoughts on the government taking away the rights of people to sue Monsanto if the Government approves Monsanto seeds and other GMO crops?

It is sad. I think it will be tested in the courts.

French professor Gillis-Eric Seralini has won a second court case thus upholding his research teams findings that when GMO foods are feed to rats they develop serious health problems including tumors. In this court case , Marc Fallous of France's Biomolecular Engineering Commission, apparently forged a scientist name in order to discredit Seralini and his research teams studies on Monsanto Products. In an earlier court case which Seralini won. The French Marianne magazine called Seralini's work "Scientific Fraud". However it was later determined that Monsanto had worked with the magazine to create a position at their company that was filled by a Monsanto employee for the purpose of discrediting Seralini' findings. What do you think about these events?
