Atomic priesthood

Atomic Priesthood refers to a proposed body modeled after the Catholic Church who would preserve knowledge of the dangers of radiation and the location of nuclear waste repositories through the use of myths, rituals, and the semiotics of long-time nuclear waste warning messages. The proposal was made by Thomas Sebeok of the Human Interference Task Force with the proposes basing on the Catholic Church deriving from the agencies at the time nearly 2,000 year long success. The aim of creating such an agency as the Atomic Priesthood is to preserve the dangers of nuclear waste and radiation in cultural memory for a great many generations.
