    The answer is to "drill here, drill now."
    We need to strip-mine those Colorado mountains in order to increase the supply (and thus bring down the cost) of the resources needed to build solar cells...

    If that's what it's about, then this belongs in civil court, as a class action suit, not a bureaucratic ruling.

    What's logically inconsistent about a not-illogical omnipotent God?

    How can you posit an illogical God (one who can bring about logical inconsistencies), and then use a logical argument to assert anything about Him?

    Does God have the power to both exist and not exist at the same time and in the same sense?

    Maybe you think the term "omnipotence" means something more than just infinitely powerful.
    How much power does it take to create a square circle?
    Oh, wait, that's not a function of power; omnipotence has nothing to do with it.
    The standard Christian explanation for the universal laws of logic is that they flow from God's unchangeable nature (He's neither subject to the laws of logic, nor does He issue them arbitrarily).

    How do atheists account for the universal laws of logic?
    If they can't, then how can they be so sure they're universal?

    After all, we already have a similar priesthood prophesying future worldwide cataclysm due to carbon dioxide emissions.

  12. Re:Subduction Zones @ Tectonic Plate Mergers... on Warning Future Generations About Nuclear Waste · · Score: 1

    But then you would have to put warning signs on all the nearby stratovolcanoes, which would spew out the waste sometime later.

    Unless interstate commerce is affected, the Federal Government (EPA in this case) has no business regulating the activities of polluters. That's the States' job.
