I thought it was a joke website, but it's not. This makes it that much more entertaining.

Enjoy.

I know of this site and I've read a few articles, and while the conservative bias is definitely noticeable, I haven't come across anything too shocking or laughable yet.

Edit: just stumbled across this, this is pretty funny...

Yeah you have to go to things that they feel strongly about. Like evolution, as Conan said. Homosexuality is an interesting one too.

...there is a trend of people doing less and less Google searches for the word "evolution" and also a trend of people doing more and more searches for the word "Jesus"

Creation science shows that dinosaurs lived in harmony with other animals, (probably including in the Garden of Eden) eating only plants; that pairs of each dinosaur kind were taken onto Noah's Ark during the Great Flood and were preserved from drowning; that many of the fossilized dinosaur bones originated during the mass killing of the Flood

Descriptions of dragons are widespread and match descriptions of dinosaurs, showing that dragons were real creatures and were actually very likely dinosaurs.

On the subject of Richard Dawkins:

Quote:
However, Dawkins has offered no effective rebuttal to studies which show that the irreligious are more likely to be superstitious than evangelical Christians.

"Implication in the death of Jesse Kilgore

Conservapedia hosts the "Conservative Bible Project", a project aiming to rewrite the English translation of the Bible in order to remove terms described as "liberal bias".[86] The project intends to remove sections of the Bible which are judged by Conservapedia's founder to be later liberal additions.[8] These include the story of the adulteress in the Gospel of John in which Jesus declares "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone".[86] The project also intends to remove Jesus's prayer on the cross, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing", since it appears only in the Gospel of Luke and since, according to Schlafly, "the simple fact is that some of the persecutors of Jesus did know what they were doing. This quotation is a favorite of liberals but should not appear in a conservative Bible".[86] The adulteress story and the "forgive them" line are missing from many early manuscripts, and many modern textual scholars consider that they are not authentic parts of the gospels, though possibly historically valid.[87][88]

The Bible project has met with extensive criticism.[89][90] Rod Dreher, a conservative editor and columnist, described the project as "insane hubris" and "crazy"; he further described the project as "It's like what you'd get if you crossed the Jesus Seminar with the College Republican chapter at a rural institution of Bible learnin'".[91]Ed Morrissey, another conservative Christian writer, wrote that bending the word of God to one's own ideology makes God subservient to an ideology, rather than the other way around.[92]Joseph Farah, editor-in-chief of WorldNetDaily, stated: "I've seen some incredibly stupid and misguided initiatives by 'conservatives' in my day, but this one takes the cake" and "There's certainly nothing 'conservative' about rewriting the Bible".[93]

On October 7, 2009, Stephen Colbert called for his viewers to incorporate him into the Conservapedia Bible as a Biblical figure and viewers responded by editing the Conservapedia Bible to include his name.[94][95] This was followed by an interview between Colbert and Schlafly on December 8, 2009.[96]
Oh Lord forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing. Oh what? They do? Smite them! SMITE THEM ALL!
