Because reality has a Liberal Bias.

As Psiga pointed out to me (re: this page), the place has already been "intelligently" vandalized absolutely to piss and back.

That said, still makes for an amusing way to kill 30 minutes if you've never heard of it before.

Of course, what really makes this funny is that Jimbo Wales is a card-carrying Objectivist.

Evolution Violates the Second Law of Thermodynamics

Evolution does in fact lower the entropy of the sum of the living DNA on this planet. The mechanism used by evolution to lower entropy is the collection and storage of information about trait survivability on strands of molecules called DNA. The theory of Evolution says that this information collects naturally through non-random selection from offspring variation.


WOW. Wowwy wow wow wow.

I think that Jimbo Wales is one of the creators of Wikipedia, and Objectivism has a lot of similarities to conservatism. Meaning that the creation of a Conservative Wikipedia is a little odd. However Objectivism has always been at odds with religion, so a Christian Conservative Wikipedia makes a little more sense.

Conservative Creationist Objectivist would probably be the best thing ever though.

Oh! Oh-oh. I get it now. Misunderstanding on my part.

Hm. "Wisdom of the crowds" doesn't strike me as being terribly objectivist. Although I suppose it is objectively the fastest reasonable way to populate the thing with information.

Did you know that faith is a uniquely Christian concept? Add to the explanation of what it means, and how it does not exist on other religions.
I think I could read this thing for days on end. Their entry for Faith makes this statement even more ludicrous.

I think these load times represent the load times for social change in the conservative camp.

EDIT:

Social Conscience cannot empathize

Most likely causes:
You are not connected to the culture.
The culture is encountering problems.
There might be a leadership error in the White House.
Activist judges.

This website worked for me once, and once alone.

Maybe they found out that I wasn't American. :(

Would it be retarded or awesome to create an entry entitled "Examples of Bias in Conservapedia?"

Bill Clinton managed to serve two terms without botching the prosecution of two wars, manipulating intelligence, engaging in a systematic program of torture, or mishandling the federal response to flooding of a major American city. Obviously, he is the devil incarnate.

Holy crap, did you put that in there? What the hell is that doing there?! This shatters everything I know about Conservapedia!

Naw, it wasn't me.

But I love how it just loves to list the negatives, especially how he never won the popular vote.

This isn't as glowing and wonderful as I expected it to be.


If these guys hope to compete with Wikipedia, they have a hell of a way to go. Are there any articles longer than stubs?
