Didn't something like this happen in a different state and so someone wrote the 10 commandments in Hebrew and the schools freaked out about having "heathen" writing on the wall?

I cba to read this. What did they actually say in those docs? Did they tell them to kill the poor and discriminate against undesirables or what?
Given that in China, law enforcement is designed to protect the state and the Party rather than the people, journalism is prescribed to create national unity rather than act as a check against the system, and the law is intended to protect the regime rather than its citizenry,
Well that's terrifying. I'm starting to think you can't have a real democracy without strong recall abilities on politicians. The fact that these people are untouchable in office no matter what we find on them is insane.
Except the US constitution does not include that language. The "a wall of separation between church and state" phrase most notably comes from an 1802 letter by Thomas Jefferson to the Danbury Baptist Association. Not a legally binding document by any means.
I imagine you're thinking of the Establishment Clause of the Constitution which forbids the US government restricting the free exercise of religion.
I believe, iirc, the Supreme Court over several decades has affirmed and reaffirmed the overall position that the US government must remain secular and not favor a particular religion. Which is effectively what you're getting at.
You are correct. Though the meaning behind the phrase remains true and biding precedent. If only precedents meant anything in today's court system. They reinterpret the Constitution on a daily basis to suite the billionaire needs whose paying them that day.
@BrikoX While I appreciate the fact that sodium cooling requires less space to build a plant than the former water-based technologies, and that it requires less human intervention to avoid an exclusion-zone-degree accident, I'm not entirely sure how will the Natrium technology reduce nuclear waste to an acceptable level, both of quantity and of safe storage conditions.
