that's not what you said though. if you're going to back track to specifics to reinforce a point and make another claim along a general trace of the original then why not make the specific claim in the first place?

it's being worked on, but the funding for it isn't going to be enough for anything to get done anytime soon unfortunately. projects could be (part of me says should be) scrapped though because there are molten salt reactors (fission process) that are stable, safe, and efficient with very little waste byproduct when compared to fission reactors built a few decades ago. nuclear energy is safer than ever now, but the public hears "nuclear energy" and thinks 3-mile island or chernobyl without know anything specific about those incidents.

I hate typing from a touch screen, it's too slow and there's so much proofreading needed, not to mention the user interface is garbage (god forbid I need to go back and edit something, and breaking up a quote takes like 5 minutes before I've even started typing up my piece). I type over 80 wpm normally so this phone shit doesn't give me much incentive to be so specific all the time.

Coming from someone who is non-religious myself, Atheists are 100% as bad as any organized religious follower. Just like a hardcore Christian/Catholic/Muslim etc they seek to undermine your beliefs, replace them with their own, and force people to believe what they believe (or in this case, don't believe) and anyone that doesn't is a giant piece of shit.

They are absolutely no better than religious fanatics.

who cares why someone tries to strip basic rights of a group of citizens? why does it matter if it's because of a book or because they're just intolerant? because many atheists are just as likely as many religious people to abridge basic rights.

choosing what you believe about the meaning of life and whether/to what extent you want to partake in religious tradition is as basic a human right as any other, and some atheists are hostile toward that right.

some atheists also try to hide the ball by turning things like homosexuality and contraception into human rights issues while painting contrary religious principles as some kind of superstitious voodoo blocking progress. the fact is that religious freedom is a basic right just like homosexuality, and in fact, there is a far greater tradition of religious freedom than of sexual freedom. does this mean one right should always trump the other? no. but some atheists, just like some religious people, are far too quick to dismiss the right they don't like and defend the one they do.

fact is that these are usually hard questions that don't have easy answers. sometimes religious freedom needs to yield to individual rights. but sometimes religious freedom needs to be defended, even if you don't like the way that freedom is being used
