Conservapedia vs. Wikipedia (groan)

Posted on 02/24/2007 8:09:36 AM PST by sociotard

This is just a link to an annoying little site called conservapedia

www.conservapedia.com/Main_Page

Maybe groaning is a bit much, but I really like wikipedia. I don't use it for anything that absolutely has to be right, for that I go to the campus library and look through their journals. However, if I only need something quick and easy or if I'm getting started and need to take a first step, wikipedia is wonderful. When people speak ill of wikipedia, I get annoyed.

Anyway, conservapedia is based on the wikipedia model, but feels that wikipedia has too much of a liberal bias. Go check it out. see what you think. maybe I'm wrong. I just think that, as conservatives, we need to watch our own, and some of their statements are, frankly, silly.

Conservapedia is a moronic consept. Wikipedia is excellent, if you read what it says with a proper amount of critical sense, like the rest of the stuff on www and media as a whole.

If you are so bright, you should be aware that battle over people’s souls concentrate always on parts of the societies which aren’t susceptible to propaganda and they unfortunately consist majority. It is exactly why every government sucks.
