Conservapedia

Conservapedia is a much-needed alternative to Wikipedia, which is increasingly anti-Christian and anti-American. On Wikipedia, many of the dates are provided in the anti-Christian "C.E." instead of "A.D.", which Conservapedia uses. Christianity receives no credit for the great advances and discoveries it inspired, such as those of the Renaissance. Read a list of many Examples of Bias in Wikipedia.

Conservapedia is an online resource and meeting place where we favor Christianity and America. Conservapedia has easy-to-use indexes to facilitate review of topics. You will much prefer using Conservapedia compared to Wikipedia if you want concise answers free of "political correctness".

    Look at this list of absurdity.

    I agree with the bitch about using C.E. and B.C.E. instead of A.D. and B.C., but those are accepted terms in their field.

    my brain is melting...
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    Honestly, the fact that C.E refers to "Common Era" meaning the time after Christ. I mean it measures the same time period based on the same event. Which to me is giving a lot of credit to Christianity. The chinese records are completely different, the hindu records are completely different and according to scientists, it's the year 4.6 billion.

    Right. So people should keep the term or create a new calendar.

    Since Wikipedia is edited by users, doesn't it mean that by definition it has no bias? Or are liberals the only ones who use it? I find it unlikely that conservative, constitutionalist, moderate, and apolitical people don't use wiki. If all kinds of people use the site, then how is it biased?

    That's great. You should call those who favor the use of "C.E." and "B.C.E." idiots wherever you find them, then.

    Exactly... I guess I missed the login page on wikipedia that said "conservatives not allowed".

    It's easier to blame the "liberal media" bogey man instead.

    Unbelievable and frankly, a little fucking scary!!!!!!!!

    How come everything that is not hard core right wing conservative is considered to have a "liberal bias"???? It's fucking ridiculous and pisses me off.

    I have some conservative views on some things but it's fucking hard when some ridiculous shit like this emerges.

    Wikipedia, a liberal bias???????? Give me a fucking break!!!!!!!!!!!

    So this and hiring conservative biased prfessors that teach Creationism is the answer to the "huge liberal threat" in this country...??????

    WTF!!!!!!!!!

    Wikipedia often uses foreign spelling of words, even though most English-speaking users are American. Look up "Most Favored Nation" on Wikipedia and it automatically converts the spelling to the British spelling "Most Favoured Nation." Look up "Division of labor" on Wikipedia and it automatically converts to the British spelling "Division of labour," then insists on the British spelling for "specialization" also.[7] Enter "Hapsburg" (the European ruling family) and Wikipedia automatically changes the spelling to Habsburg, even though the American spelling has always been "Hapsburg". Within entries British spellings appear in the silliest of places, even when the topic is American. Conservapedia favors American spellings of words.

    These are a special kind of idiots if you ask me, this has to be one of the most ridiculous things I have ever read.

    By the way Ahnimus, I fixed your post ;)

    Didn't the English 'discover' the language? ;) We Americans are too lazy to insert additional letters in words, such as favour, humour, and labour. My american spell check wants to correct those words soooooo bad.

    British English is taught all over the world is it's quite logical that they'd use British English spelling. And the most ridiculous part is the part about the Habsburg family, I think the US is the only country that uses Hapsburg. Their name was Habsburg with a B.

    Yea, words like favour are spelled with a U. As far as I know American English is the only one that drops the U.

    it's not that we aussies use 'proper' english. we speak and write just english. in order for a language to survive it has to adapt and change, as well as absorb words from other languages. english does this and will until the end. i'm over the american's apparent inability to spell correctly. it's much ado about nothing really.

    http://www.conservapedia.com/Liberal
    conservapedia.com wrote:
    The term "liberal" comes from the aftermath of the French Revolution, where it meant someone who advocated more powerful elected assemblies.

    "Liberal" today means the disfavoring of individual responsibility in favor of collectivism or egalitarianism. Liberals tend to prefer equality in result rather than increased opportunities that can result in unequal results.

    An alternative definition of liberal is anything that is not conservative. For example, the American Heritage Dictionary includes this definition of "liberal":[2]

    Not limited to or by established, traditional, orthodox, or authoritarian attitudes, views, or dogmas ...

    That doesn't exactly mean "anything that is not conservative".

    Ok, check the reference...
    American Heritage Dictionary wrote:
    Not limited to or by established, traditional, orthodox, or authoritarian attitudes, views, or dogmas; free from bigotry.

    Well that last part was conveniently left out. What about the other definitions.
    American Heritage Dictionary wrote:
    Favoring proposals for reform, open to new ideas for progress, and tolerant of the ideas and behavior of others; broad-minded.

    Of, relating to, or characteristic of liberalism.

    Liberal Of, designating, or characteristic of a political party founded on or associated with principles of social and political liberalism, especially in Great Britain, Canada, and the United States.

    Well what do you expect from bigots eh?

    Definition of bigotry
    stubborn and complete intolerance of any creed, belief, or opinion that differs from one's own.

    So it would seem that the definition of Liberal is non-bias.

    Might as well rename the parties, bigots and non-bigots.

    All I was pointing out is the English, Canadians, & Australians use the same spellings of words. It's not the 'inability of Americans to spell', it's how english is taught here. If I had spelled the word color 'colour' on a spelling test in school, it would have been considered incorrect. Like you said, much ado about nothing. Color is correct for americans and colour is correct for the rest. No one should have to 'change' to appease another.

    Oh, I misinterpreted your use of the word.

    Yeah, I always understood other countries spelled english words differently than how I learn in the States. I never saw it as wrong, it's just different. I mean, i'm sure all of us learned American, British, etc literature in school. So it is strange for me to understand the issue. No one is wrong and it's insignificant, really. I think we agree on the matter.
