  • I like corn.

  • man is responsible for their adaptation not creation :)

  • Id like to see the evidence mostly because Im interested. Up vote.

  • Maize is a genetic masterpiece. It's like the greatest invention of the ancient South American people. The Aztecs selective breeding program was colossal, they even had research facilities with specially terraces built to simulate different climates.

  • Awesome!

  • Yes, the miracle of selective breeding has created many wonderful fruits and vegetables, but the creationists still believe "god" created them just as they are, when in fact man is largely responsible for their creation.

  • Corn is straight

  • KILL IT WITH FIRE!!
