Niilopedia is the (presumably parody) wiki created by the Finnish Internet personality Niilo Paasivirta. The Niilopedia affects an extremely conservative Christian view of everything, and takes all conspiracy and other fringe theories seriously as a matter of principle. As yet there is no English-language Niilopedia, although one has been promised for some time now; the only available language is Finnish.
The Finnish Niilopedia frequently uses archaic language and defunct terminology, and several pages (especially those concerning sexuality and gender roles) are verbatim or almost verbatim quotations from out-of-copyright books on sexual health, aimed at general reading public. All churches and Christian congregations are deemed to be too liberal, while "True Christianity", professed by Niilo and his (fictitious) followers, is declared to be, no religion, but truth and science. Male homosexuality is frowned upon, but polygamy and concubinage are seen as Biblical practices, and female homosexuality is loudly approved of and recommended as part of Christian (polygamous) marriage and/or concubinage.
