In any case, if you want to reject the concept of science and certainty in the modern age, by all means, do us all a favor and stop using your computer and electricity it needs, and availing yourself of modern medicine. Or was it religion that created those?
No, there isn't. "Clean Coal" is a failed marketing campaign by the lobbying organizations for the coal industry--a non-existent euphemism.Quote:

Next thing we know, Ashliana will be saying cold fusion does not exist either!
Who's forcing anyone to quit buring coal? Is it the same people who are confiscating your guns? For the love of God, why do you write such nonsense? The USA is not going coal free anytime soon. Can you understand that? Will you admit that you understand that?Quote:

But you just said no one wants to force anyone to quit burning coal so...what's your solution? I can't help but notice you're acting like a wounded animal again; offering up no real solutions or even defending your own arguments, rather you're just attacking anyone who approaches.
