As someone pointed out earlier, regardless of whether you think it's good or bad, we've already been doing this for ages.
What we know as a "banana" is man made. We did that, not god. It wasn't made via GE but it was made by us, none the less.
This is what was trying to be explained to you, using the typewriter vs computer analogy. We modify our food, our animals, pets, etc. We do all of this without GE and we've been doing it for AGES.
GE is simply a targeted more efficient way of doing this. From the other thread regarding Marijuana, I know that you have a lot of trouble dealing with the naturalistic fallacy and you can see it taking shape in this thread as well.
