Yes, yes it does seem phobic.

They deleted my article on the handicapped, though...

They missed this one:

Quote:

As part of changes proposed by the USDA and implemented into law, ketchup was declared a vegetable by the Republican Reagan administration on March 9, 1981. Ostensibly, this was "so public schools could include it in their balanced meal plan," However, critics charged that it would allow schools to count ketchup as a vegetable in place of so-called "real" vegetables like potatoes and the like. After a volcano of negative publicity, this was quickly changed.

They miss a lot. I wonder why the conservatives seem so outnumbered?

Oh wait.

It's kind of fun editing the pages there!

My contribution:

1 moon; 1 earth = 1 God?

1 web site; one nutcase writer = 1 screwed up view of the world.

5. Our solar system is one of the few that has only one sun. Only one sun and only one moon: this uniqueness may reflect the existence of only one God.

that's one hell of a "may"!
but..if.. there's only one god.. and 'he' is running the whole schebang then wouldn't all the solar systems in all the universe have only one sun?.. oh! right! because we're the only inhabited planet in the whole infinite universe! sorry... I forgot.

wow... look up dinosaurs.. back in kansas the prevailing theory among the whack-jobs.. er.. I mean religiously hardcore (by which I mean the neo-christians) is that dinosaur bones were placed in the earth by the devil to test our faith.. haven't found if crapopedia here espouses that theory yet..

Have fun and read the article on Ann Coulter, it's defense of the 'faggot' remark, and complaints about the double standard held by the press in protesting those remarks.

I don't know about you, but it really irks me when people use A.D. incorrectly. It goes BEFORE the date. B.C. comes after.

Who made that rule, I've never heard it before, which doesn't have any bearing, but strange nobody has mentioned it. I know you are a repository for a wealth of stuff we mortals don't know. :D

You have to log in to edit pages.

Oh dear. I wonder why that is? Perhaps they don't want anonymous users slapping {{dubious}}, {{false}} and {{NPOV}} tags all through the articles?

The article on the Moon is so hilarious. The sad bit, however, is that some people might actually take it seriously.

wolf 03-19-2007 01:00 AM

A.D. means "Anno Domini" or "In the Year of Our Lord" as in "On the 14th of May in the Year of Our Lord 1607 the Jamestown Colony was established."

B.C., meaning (years) Before Christ, comes after the date, as in "Cleopatra reigned in Egypt from 51 to 30 B.C."

If you're using B.C.E. and C.E., (Before Common Era and Common Era), those both come after the date.

As usual, Wikipedia has more complete poop.

Exactly why we scientists view Wikipedia with some measure of distrust. Apart from being a scientist, I have also had a life-long love of history. I am a member of The Australian Centre for Egyptology, and BCE means before Christ (ie. up to and including 1 BC), and CE means after Christ (ie. from 1 AD on). There is no year zero - that is why 2000 was the last year of the 20th century, and 2001, the first of the 21st. The "common erra" terms came into affect due to "religious sensibilities" - that is, not wanting to offend non Christians. The fact that the date of Christ's birth was calculated (as it has turned out, incorrectly), several centuries after the fact, does not mean that the Common Erra starts from the date of calculation - it replaces AD.

From the Oxford dictionary:

BCE

• abbreviation before the Common Era (indicating dates before the Christian era, used especially by non-Christians).

CE

• abbreviation 1 Church of England. 2 Common Era.

You will much prefer using Conservapedia compared to Wikipedia if you want concise, clean answers free of "political correctness".

"Much prefer?"
