Utah is ready to build advanced nuclear. Operation Gigawatt will drive down costs, deliver abundance, and make our state a net energy exporter.
We’re accelerating site selection, rightsizing regulation, and getting to work. This is about powering Utah and securing America. 🇺🇸

He's right. Gates are defensive.
"Gates of hell" is better translated as the gates of the realm of the dead. In Matthew 16 Jesus is connecting the keys of the kingdom with the ability for the Church to prevail against the gates surrounding the realm of the dead.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the only Church that believes its priesthood authority reaches beyond the grave (i.e. prevails against the gates of hell).
If you die without baptism the Catholics can't help you, the Orthodox can't help you. The Protestants are kind of confused if you even need baptism or priesthood.
The Latter day saints say "no problem, we got you"
"Jesus's promise was that He will build His church, and the gates of hell won't stand against it."

- Population collapse is truly terrifying imo
- Priesthood ban and its rationale were unfortunate but LDS movement was relatively progressive; mormonr.org/qnas/AqRt9/black…; mormonr.org/qnas/dxS5B/nativ…
- Irrational? 🤔 lightandtruthletter.org; youtu.be/fQ9S1Omhzkg?si=jXYc…
LDS gets rid of:
- Eternal hell for finite transgression
- Original sin
- Bible inerrancy
- Closed canon
- Ex Nihilo
- Classic mind-body problem
- Problem of Atonement

The devil is tricking all us Mormons into having stable happy families, serving others, proclaiming Christ, and knowing our bibles better than any other group, being highly charitable both with our time and money etc etc.
The devil is playing 4d chess!

Translation: “unless you accept incoherent post biblical neo-platonic trinitarian notions about the nature of God you and your children will burn forever in eternal suffering because God is all loving and and completely just”

Thank you @CosmicSkeptic for a wonderful evening. Being invited by you for dinner tonight was an unexpected treat. Spending several hours discussing Mormonism, theology and philosophy with you was better than expected. I hope we can make it happen again at some point.

The mistake the people who are mad about this are making is conflating their INTERPRETATION of scripture with scripture itself. Latter-day Saints of all people should understand why humans can't always be trusted to interpret scripture. Don't argue like Protestants!

The law of consecration is the cure to the meaning crisis and we should let the world know this.

TAKEDOWN reveals the never-before-told inside story of how P*rnhub was exposed for enabling and profiting from countless videos of child rape and trafficking. But the fight isn’t over yet! Victims deserve justice.

Socialism is the Satanic perversion of the Law of Consecration. It always ends up in tyranny (violent force) instead of charity (willingly serving)

Every book of scripture discusses seeking knowledge and understanding the mysteries of God & existence
“Seek and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you.”
"If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him."

Lifesaving “Golden Rice” is once again under attack from vested interests like old-fashioned environmental groups, powerful politicians and some farmers. What do they all have in common? They promote falsehoods on the safety of golden rice and reject the evidence that it will revolutionise children’s health across swathes of the global south.
Rice-heavy diets often lack enough vitamin A, resulting in blindness and sometimes deaths in children.
“Golden rice” has been enhanced with a gene that infuses the grain with beta carotene, a type of vitamin A. This vital nutrient transforms ordinary white rice into a much-needed source of vitamin A, capable of preventing blindness and death in undernourished children in the world’s most disadvantaged communities.
Yet again, science is under attack, and this time its children across the global south that will pay the price.
Will you pledge to stand up for science?

Hay 430.000 toneladas de combustible nuclear usado en reactores nucleares comerciales en todo el mundo. El 30% ya ha sido reciclado para producir energía y el 70% restante se almacena de forma segura en piscinas o contenedores en seco, en espera de su almacenamiento geológico profundo o su reciclaje.
Hoy ha comenzado en la sede del @iaeaorg en Viena la Conferencia Internacional sobre la Gestión del Combustible Gastado. Personalmente prefiero llamarle «combustible usado» porque dista mucho de estar gastado, ya que solo hemos aprovechado el 5% de su energía y es técnicamente viable reciclarlo, extrayendo más del 90% restante.
iaea.org/newscenter/news/int…
Es importante desmentir un mito: ningún combustible usado en reactores nucleares comerciales se ha lanzado nunca al océano. Es cierto que hasta 1982 algunos países (entre los que no estaba España), lanzaron residuos de baja y media actividad a los océanos, no solo provenientes de centrales nucleares, sino también de otras industrias, centros de investigación y hospitales. Afortunadamente esa abominable actividad está prohibida desde entonces y los reguladores nucleares nacionales, otros organismos internacionales y la propia @iaeaorg supervisan que los residuos radiactivos se gestionen con total seguridad y responsabilidad.

Got a point about false religious convictions, fanaticism, etc (Jer. 17:9)
However, we also “feel” the Holy Ghost

Lifesaving Golden Rice is once again under fire from groups who deny the science behind its safety and its potential to save millions of children’s lives worldwide.
Let policymakers know you support this lifesaving food.

The US Secretary of Energy is calling for close to 200 new nuclear power plants to be built.
The Australian Energy Minister thinks nuclear power should still be illegal.
