A conservative online encyclopedia? It's true! Check out Conservapedia, "a much-needed alternative to Wikipedia, which is increasingly anti-Christian and anti-American."



Just for fun, I typed in a few entries, like evolution, just to see what would pop into view. I did this this morning, and read, "Evolution has largely been discredited, but is forced on schools by activist judges." That sentence, 8 hours later, has been removed. Obviously word has been traveling fast, prompting the edits!

The revised entry boasts a different opening sentence in the second paragraph: "Creationists and supporters of Intelligent Design the process of natural selection is not an evolutionary process. " Sure, the sentence lacks a verb; but given the original sentence I read this morning and mentioned above, a sentence without actual meaning seems a mark of true progress.

The entry on Charles Darwin contains the opening line:

People who write articles shouldn't misspell "deathbed" and "accept," or "occurred."


The entry also lists Darwin's birth to a "Christian family" without citing sources. I do love the fact that the picture of Mr. Darwin faced his entry with a scowl, just as I positioned it here.

Speaking of paleontology, check out the entry on dinosaurs:

Creationists believe, based on archeological and Biblical evidences, that dinosaurs were created on the 6th day of the Creation Week[1], between 6,000 and 10,000 years ago; that they lived in the Garden of Eden in harmony with other animals, eating only plants[2]; that pairs of various dinosaur baramins were taken onto Noah's Ark during the Great Flood and were preserved from drowning[3]; that fossilized dinosaur bones originated during the mass killing of the Flood[4]; and that some descendants of those dinosaurs taken aboard the Ark still roam the earth today[5].
Of course, citation number 5 comes from a web page with the picture shown above on its header.
