I got perusing it again today after learning of the Conservative Bible Project (srsly) and wanted to share a few of the highlights - excluding the obvious ones like the articles on homosexuality, feminism, evolution, etc. Essay: Best New Conservative Words Oh. My. Figurative. God. It's so amazingly inane! I especially like that they decided to take all Orwell's terms from 1984 as "conservative". Seeing as he was so well known as politically right-wing. Can't get more conservative than democratic socialism, after all. Essay: Conservapedia's Law I was going to pick part of the article to quote, but it's short and there's no part that is visibly more idiotic than the rest. It's just ... wow. Mystery: Why Do Non-Conservatives Exist? Quote: Statistical Analysis (Estimates) 25%: did not hear about conservative principles until after they made up their mind and, perhaps due to pervasive societal bias, refuse to reconsider 15%: genuinely lack of desire to find the truth, and instead desire attention, praise by liberal teachers, getting along by going along, and not standing up to liberal bullies 15%: refuse to forgive themselves and let go of their past mistakes and image 10%: fooled by the demonizing of conservatives and mistakenly feel that conservative benefits are available only to those who are from an intact family or privileged background 10%: refuse to rise above their personal temptations, often self-destructive, and hate conservatives who criticize their self-indulgent behavior 10%: feel that they deserve to make more money than they do, as in public school teachers and university professors, and refuse to rise above self-interest 10%: harbor a grudge against a conservative, typically a parent but sometimes an ex-spouse, and refuse to forgive or rise above the animosity 5%: like an anarchist, genuinely want to believe in and propagate destructive ideas "Statistical Analysis (Estimates)" Heh. Seriously. I think all of these essays were written by the site's founder, so they're "fo' realz". Most of the site is just a bizarre exercise in "Poe's Law".

Personally, while Conservapedia's arguments seem logically sound and convincing, I did not hear about conservative principles until after I made up my mind and, due to pervasive societal bias, refuse to reconsider.

No one disagrees on an eduacted basis with conservatives! This is one of the reasons I hate definitive political labelling. Each issue is a different issue, and therefore should be treated with different research and a different approach. I've found so many conservatives, and even leftists who seem to go with the school of 'thought' with little thought of their own.

There is not a doubt about it, the media is liberal. Yes you can say FOX tilts right, but they offer the liberal counterpoint. Lol?
