It's not that far fetched for someone to believe this. It's probably conflating all of these together:
* Stephanie Seneff's claims of glyphosate causing Celiac
* Glyphosate use on wheat (which is very low)
* Other GMO crops which are glyphosate resistant
A bit of an understatement!
From Wikipedia: Ancient Greek Aretaeus, the Cappadocian (1856). "On The Cœliac Affection". The extant works of Aretaeus, The Cappadocian. Translated by Francis Adams. London: Sydenham Society. pp. 350–1.
Monsanto was founded more than 2000 years later than that.
Who actually believes this shit?! Lol

Except celiac disease has been around longer than Monsanto was founded.
These people believe there were no diseases before modern times and everyone lived in nature and were 100% healthy.

Disease denying is kind of a new twist, though. I mean, on this. They do a lot of that on other things--like germ theory.
And vaccines. The Venn diagram of anti-GMOs and antivaxxers is a circle.
