Description
An encyclopedia with a politically conservative viewpoint and friendly to creationism and Christianity. The site is partly aimed at homeschooled children from fundamentalist Christian homes. Conservapedia has more than 22,000 users.
Criticisms
The Young Earth Creationist position of Conservapedia is considered unscientific. Articles about Political Liberals are considered defamatory. The site is considered unobjective generally. Conservapedia is accused of being basically Andrew Schlafly's blog. The site is partly aimed at homeschooled children from fundamentalist Christian homes. Such children are unlikely to see where Conservapedia is considered out of touch with reality. Conservapedia is also aimed at adult American fundamentalist Christians who are discouraged from getting information outside their narrow Christian viewpoint and may not see any problems with Conservapedia.
Blocking policy
Conservapedia is accused of blocking users for trivial reasons and over minor disagreements.
