"Gods plan" , the harmony and balance in which he created the universe and our local aspect, his perfection and wisdom.
This is what I would expect to read from any religion on this subject.
Without intending to offend any religious reader here, I find the following article completely counter-intuitive.
As the debate over whether or not GMOs are fit for public consumption waxes hotter all over the world, the Catholic Church has been conspicuously silent on whether or not it endorses this biotechnology.Despite this attempt to remain publicly neutral, WikiLeaks recently uncovered a transmission from Christopher Sandrolini, a U.S. diplomat to the Holy See, that demonstrates the Vatican's clandestine approval of genetically modified crops.
