What the writers of this article page tell you is the fact that they were tossed out of Conservapedia for the following:

• Fighting and picking fights;
• Trying to force a liberal perspective in various articles;
• Showing outright contempt for the site, conservatism in general, Christianity, and family values;
• The insertion of objectionable content, such as porn images and links to porn sites;
• Lying, by either including deliberately false article content, or lying in their own conduct;
• Vandalism and cyber-terrorist tactics.

As for RationalWiki, despite what it is said on the main page of that site regarding their own intelligence, is nothing more than a joke. 70.156.10.208 07:37, 26 October 2007 (EDT)

Okay, taking these in orde:

• "Picking fights" means "trying to insist on historical fact, not the fevered delusions of beady-eyed fanatics. See the Great "Dawkins is a Professor" Debate.
• "Liberal Perspective" = "Not as rabidly Liberal-Hating as Andy Schlafly."
• Outright contempt....well, ya got me there. Conservapedia is downright Stalinist in its adherence to the One True Opinion About Everything, and I have massive contempt for that kind of attitude.
• "Objectionable content" = Anything Liberal, or that treats S-x as anything less that a Cthulhuesque horror that a wrathful God inflicted upon humanity to PUNISH them. And I don't recall seeing any porn links--got versions to back up that wild accusation?
  • Also, remember that RWers aren't the ONLY people editing CP for the laughs.
• Anyone who says flat-out that they're a Liberal on CP gets banned. Usually immediately. So lying (especially about that we think of Andy) is the only way to get anything done.
• Vandalism is generally destructive acts not fixable with a single mouse-click, so, no.
  • And adding actual, provable facts that happen not to agree with the Schlafly Worldview is only 'vandalism' from within said constricted worldview, but whatever.
  • Cyberterrorism? Is that where we blow up trucks over the Internet?

It's a joke you can believe in, though. Fnord.

Yes, lil' Debbie got me to register here. Who says nothing good comes of Conservapedia? --Gulik 16:55, 1 August 2008 (EDT)
