<<To me at least, that is much safer than gene splicing it into plants. Instead of simple pollution, it is messing with Mother Nature in a way that terrifies me. Butterflies don't eat from the ground, for example, they eat from the plant.>>

But butterflies don't eat corn stalks or roots and that is where the BT gene is. If you spread it as a powder it can get on flowers and that is where butterflies do eat.
