THERE IS NO EVIDENCE. I repeat NO EVIDENCE that organic food is ANY safer for human beings. Anyone who believes that has NEVER looked at the evidence.
Seems like YOU never looked at the evidence,

Organic farmers use techniques like crop rotation and composting to restore vital nutrients to the soil, whereas conventional farming only replaces the minimum nutrients necessary for a crop to grow. Most conventional farmers use primarily NPK as fertilizer: Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium. These are the nutrients required for a crop to produce, not to produce optimally healthy foods. Over time this strips the soil of important minerals that the plant may not require to grow but that human bodies need to function such as boron, copper, manganese, chromium, and zinc.
