Reading the article on Obama, I found it ridden with complete bias and repeated instances in which things were completely taken out of context. It had me laughing very hard for at leas two minutes. My favorite ridiculous quote was, "If Obama is elected president, he will be the first muslim in office." Conservapedia is a laughingstock.

Conservapedia, on the other hand, is deliberately right-wing, so naturally it drifts much further from the centre than Wiki does. If CP's editors really did want a more open debate (which I doubt) their efforts would be better spent offering their side of that debate to Wikipedia.

I left after being put on temporary ban for claiming that the speed of light is approximatly three times ten to the eights meters per second, because I hadn't given a source. My suggestion of some papers by Maxwell and Einstein were rejected as sources. One of the editors - the creatively-named Conservative - has an interesting view on the speed of light: He believes it travels at three-E-eight now, but that until very recently it went a good many orders of magnitude faster - obviously, otherwise how could we see objects more than six thousand light years away? He remains silent regarding the problem of emission spectra.

Separating yourself from a problem does not solve it.

Yes, YEC is insisted upon when the article comes to the eye of the vast majority of editors, yes, they go out of their way to attack Wikipedia, etc. Trust me, being a liberal – at all – and trying to survive there (another problem, they're <em>way</em> to click-happy with that block button) is no fun. In fact, even being a moderate conservative is no fun, except perhaps if you are a YEC. As a (former) Conservapedia editor… the place is insane.
