  • Imagine this (not so) hypothetical scenario:

    Yellowstone or another supervolcano erupts and leads to a few years of volcanic winter, where there is much less sunshine. This has historical precedent, it has happened before, and while in and of itself it will impact a lot of people regardless of anything else, wouldn’t you agree it would be better to have at least some nuclear power capacity instead of relying solely on renewables?

    Sure, such a scenario is not probable, but it pays to stay safe in the case of one such event. I would say having most of our power from renewables would be best, having it supported by 10-20% or so nuclear with the possibility of increase in times of need would make our electric grids super resilient to stuff

    I don’t think that’s accurate at all. There are Bible scholars who make it their life’s work to understand the oldest manuscripts of the Bible we have in the context they were written in. Many newer Bible versions have these blurbs in them that explain certain phrases exactly to avoid misunderstandings. It’s on you if you choose to stick to stuff like the King James’s version, I’d say.
