With a Name Like Conservapedia...

... it's got to be fair and balanced, right? Mucho gusto! (here)

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

Bias?? In Wiki? Like what?

For example, even though most Americans (and probably most of the world) reject the theory of evolution, Wikipedia editors commenting on the topic are nearly 100% pro-evolution.

Wikipedia often uses foreign spelling of words, even though most English speaking users are American.

Wikipedia claims about 1.5 million articles, but what it does not say is that a large number of those articles have zero educational value.

Wikipedia has many entries on mathematical concepts, but lacks any entry on the basic concept of an elementary proof. Elementary proofs require a rigor lacking in many mathematical claims promoted on Wikipedia.

So it's un-American, un-educational and contains math.

Egad!

I'm thinking it's got to be a joke. Humor. Parody.

Or a sticky-glue trap for humorless zealots (from both sides of the aisle).

I'm thinking it's more a sticky-trap than anything else. OTOH ... well... it wouldn't be the first time I've seen unintentional self-parody on either side of the asile.
