Nuclear Nemesis, Civil Religion | By Rosan Yoshida,  Post-Dispatch 16 March 2010, The entire earth ecology faces imminent inferno. We may evaporate instantaneously, be burned skinless in the nuclear blast, or be irradiated incessantly, inside and out, succumbing to dust in a nuclear winter.We are at the critical point: either we abolish nukes or nukes abolish us.

We are targeted by nuclear weapons at a hair-trigger alert. More countries want to possess nukes to dominate the world or defend themselves, menacing, misguiding, mismanaging all. But it’s a dangerous game to monopolize them and selfish (sinful) irresponsibility to possess them.

Nuclear power, too – with its unsolved problems of radiation through operation, accident, and waste – can devastate the global system for hundreds of thousands of years. False signals, flight attacks, or failed systems can trigger a nuclear war or a nuclear power plant meltdown.

To avoid nuclear holocaust, either by instant nuclear blast or eternal radiation leak, mankind must transcend egoistic tribalism and embrace holistic universalism. The entire life system and all species and generations decry and denounce this destructive technology.

The site hosts an online discussion and includes links to webcasts, exhibitions, and other activities connecting Japan and the U.S.
