And not only that, remember when Moses was trying to get the Pharaoh of Egypt to "Let my people go?" One of the plagues that was unleashed upon Egypt was burning hail. Hail is H20. In Job 38:22, this is also alluded to:
Job 38:22 Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? Or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail?
The Pharaoh certainly saw the "treasures of the hail." It was hydrogen power.
I read recently that one cannot be called "good" if one does not have the capacity for evil. Does god have the capacity to be a villain?

"Why?"
Because I take the opinion of a Fortune 50 company over some internet rando.
But if you feel they are wasting their money due to your vast knowledge of nuclear physics perhaps you should apply for a position and teach them a thing or two.

"That has ZERO to do with your suggesting I should go tell some unknown entity about LFTR tech."
Sure it does, they wouldn't be investing huge amounts of capital if 1960's tech was the answer.
Thorium-cycle nuclear reactors sound promising, too, and the technology seems ready for mass production now or very soon. But, yeah, I really hope one of the "alternative" hot fusion projects succeeds, and LENR, aka cold fusion, is finally gaining some credibility. The ITER/tokomak project is ridiculously expensive and huge, with the first power from commercial offshoots projected for 2050.

Which is why I hope either MIT or Lockheed can do something with their fusion programs, that is the only 'green' energy that will make a difference.

The fact that you constantly look for ways to discredit God. Certainly
has served you well in this one instance. I regret to admit I'm going
to have to do some searching on this one Chaz. I'm reluctant to answer
other wise. Perhaps you've posed the question before now? Maybe you
could save me some time? Shocking for me and possibly you as well
but I am being honest with you. It's a GOOD question.

Nuclear fusion above all else. Fision until then. The rest is nowhere near our potential.

2. the fact that you refer to LFTas '1960s tech' just shows your total and absolute ignorance about the current state of LFTR tech.

The internal combustion engine is 1800's tech, just because you gussy it up doesn't change when it's from.

now some exceptionally brilliant individuals are working on something much more contemporary as our future.
I hear the telegraph might make a comeback soon...
