Regardless of whether state conventions choose Paultards to be these delegates, they ''must'' vote Romney at the national convention. Now, with Paul stopping his campaign and the winner take all states of California and New Jersey coming up, with over 240 combined delegates, Romney will '''inevitably''' be the Republican nominee &amp;lt;s&amp;gt;unless he dies&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;.&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

He is effectively a &amp;quot;compromise&amp;quot;, a &amp;quot;mean&amp;quot;, a &amp;quot;mashup of moderate and extreme views&amp;quot; candidate. In order words, few enthusiastically support him. Ron Paul, Rick Santorum, and Newt Gingrich all had very enthusiastic fans who proudly advocated for them, but Romney has no such people. Romney's campaign is bent on negative ads. This tactic failed with Mondale and Dukakis, and it will fail this time as well. The most Romney will be able to do is drive down turnout. Unofortuantely, a large amount of that will be from his side. With Obama endorsing gay marriage, Romney is forced to cower from the issues that will haunt him: social policy. This year saw some of the most nasty views come up seriously in the primary; creationism with Perry, global warming denialism with Santorum, &amp;quot;war on Christmas&amp;quot; from Gingrich, Islamophobia from Cain, hyperpatriotism from Bachman, and of course outright racism from Paul. &lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td colspan=&quot;2&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-marker'&gt;+&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style=&quot;background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ins style=&quot;color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

Every Republican since Goldwater has accused their Democratic opponents of being soft on foreign policy. Generally, the Democrats have simply battled on the Republicans grounds, in some cases with success (see Johnson) and in other cases miserable failure (Mondale and Dukakis). But this time, Romney cannot resort to warmongering. Most Americans actually see Obama's war proposals as being too far to the ''right'' by not withdrawing from Afghanistan immediately, and foreign policy in general is where the President has popular approval. Nor can he call the President &amp;quot;soft on terror&amp;quot; like Bush did to Kerry. Even Republican Buddy Roemer once said &amp;quot;I'll give you this: The President is really good at killing terrorists.&amp;quot;&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

The thought of unemployment going below 8% must keep him up at night; he will not win this battle.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;{{conservapedia}}&lt;br /&gt;
This page is a list of articles which openly refute creationist, or otherwise fundamentalist Christian, positions as they are stated on Conservapedia.  While general principles, they may specifically address the principles as iterated on Conservapedia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Scientific Refutations ==&lt;br /&gt;
*Despite claims to the contrary, the [[Speed of Light]] in a vacuum is in fact constant, and has always been.&lt;br /&gt;
*There are numerous and spectacular examples of experimental evidence in support of relativity; furthermore, mainstream scientists are not conspiring to &amp;quot;exaggerate&amp;quot; the [[science]] of relativity for the purpose of advancing moral relativism.  See [[Conservapedia:Conservapedian relativity | Conservapedian relativity]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The [[Second Law of Thermodynamics]] ''does not'' disprove evolution!&lt;br /&gt;
*[[The incontrovertible evidence of common descent|Transitional fossils]] ''have'' been found. All fossils are 'transitional' - the term itself is not used by any serious scientific expert&lt;br /&gt;
*The Bible did ''not'' come up with all of modern science: Biblical [[Biblical scientific foreknowledge|foreknowledge]] is a bunk theory.&lt;br /&gt;
*In this truly stellar article, our contributors prove that Dr. Behe's new book is, if possible, ''worse science'' than intelligent design!  Read our dissection of &amp;quot;The Edge of Evolution&amp;quot; [[Behe:The Edge of Evolution, Interview|here]].  Also, read about [[Intelligent Design]].&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Irreducible complexity]] is a pseudoscience.&lt;br /&gt;
*Conservapedia exhibits a rudimentary failure to understand the concept of the scientific theory, as proven [[Essay:CP on &amp;quot;theory&amp;quot;|here]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The half-life of carbon has not changed significantly over billions of years, nor could it without destabilizing all of chemistry.  Therefore, [[carbon dating]] is accurate.&lt;br /&gt;
*Entropy and thermodynamics has nothing to do with information, a product of the human mind beyond the scope of physics.&lt;br /&gt;
*Entropy does not always increase in nature. If it did, water would never freeze and rubber bands couldn't stretch. (It will only increase with certainty in an isolated system - in this case, it will increase in relation to the Universe as a whole. For example, when water freezes, the entropy of the water decreases but the heat given off increases the entropy of the surrounding air)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Medical Refutations ==&lt;br /&gt;
*Despite [[Vaccine hysteria|some claims]], vaccines are not dangerous, and are actually beneficial.&lt;br /&gt;
*Abortion is ''not'' a major risk factor for [[cp:/index.php?title=Talk:Breast_cancer&amp;amp;diff=prev&amp;amp;oldid=111829|breast cancer]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Lawyers are ''not'' more qualified to talk about infectious diseases than doctors.&amp;lt;capture&amp;gt;[http://www.conservapedia.com/User_talk:Aschlafly/Archive3#Question]&amp;lt;/capture&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Political Refutations ==&lt;br /&gt;
*Conservapedia, despite being founded by a Harvard-educated lawyer, makes rookie legal [[Conservapedia:Legal Errors on Conservapedia|mistakes]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Conservapedia slanders the basic tenets of law, but you can find correct statements of discrimination law [[Fourteenth Amendment|here]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The landmark ''Kitzmiller'' case dealt a death blow to intelligent design, not withstanding Conservapedia's [[Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District|criticism]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The New Deal was ''not'' known as the &amp;quot;[[conservapedia:New Ordeal|New Ordeal]],&amp;quot; until RobS invented the phrase.&lt;br /&gt;
*See how America has suffered from [[politics and science in the Bush administration]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The [[gay rights]] movement is alive and well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Miscellaneous Refutations ==&lt;br /&gt;
*Creationists on Conservapedia use their poor rhetorical skills to get around their poor scientific skills.  Learn to avoid their traps [[Conservapedia:RobS's Idiot's Grin Stratagem|here]].&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Homosexuality]] is not inherently evil.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Bible [[Biblical contradictions|contradicts]] itself frequently.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Conservapedia:Reparative Therapy of Homosexuality|Reparative Therapy]], or the pseudo-medical attempt at turning a gay man or woman &amp;quot;straight,&amp;quot; probably does not work, and may cause psychological harm to the person.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Essay Refutations ==&lt;br /&gt;
*Our own [[user:PalMD|PalMD]] tackles Conservapedia's claim that evolution is politically motivated in [[Essay:PalMD's Response for Motivations for the Theory of Evolution|this piece]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Conservapedia claims that liberals behave badly on Conservapedia, but creationists behave [[Essay:Creationist Behavior on Conservapedia|much worse]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Conservapedia's [[cp:user:Conservative|resident quoteminer]] talks about how evolution caused Nazism.  But he's... [[Essay:Social Effects of the Theory of Evolution|a bit off]].&lt;br /&gt;
*[[cp:user:Karajou|Karajou]] is convinced that liberals are the oppressors of all of humanity.  He's slightly turned around, as [[user:PalMD|PalMD]] proves in [[Essay:Karajou's &amp;quot;The Obsolete Man&amp;quot;|this essay]].  Man, Karajou is such a [[fun:Clowns|clown]]!&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Essay:Lifeboat ethics|Lifeboat ethics]], Andy's ill-conceived attempt to bash public schools (again). Beware &amp;amp;mdash; this is the sort of sloppy thinking that comes from homeschooling.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

This page is intended to be a hub for all the beliefs the management of [[Conservapedia]] seem to hold that are not reality-based.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Scientific ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Believing in evolution is evil&lt;br /&gt;
* Well, maybe not, but evolution is fake!&lt;br /&gt;
* Okay, maybe it isn't ALL a fake, but only microevolution works!&lt;br /&gt;
* Evolutionary teaching is responsible for racism&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[[CP:Evolutionary racism]]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;, Nazism, Communism&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[[CP:Social effects of the theory of evolution]]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;, teenage pregnancy, the heartbreak of psoriasis, and the fact you can't find a cab when it's raining.&lt;br /&gt;
* So is [[global warming]], because the earth isn't actually getting any warmer.&lt;br /&gt;
**&amp;quot;These liberals would have us believe the titanic is sinking, even though the part of it I'm standing on clearly just rose 200 feet in the air!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
** And even if it is getting warmer it's not because of human activity.&lt;br /&gt;
* And [[complex numbers]]!&lt;br /&gt;
* Nothing [[Sigmund Freud]] ever did had any benefit whatsoever&lt;br /&gt;
* Because mental illness is ''actually'' caused by Liberalism&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[[cp:Mystery:Do Liberal Teachings Cause Mental Illness?]]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* If [[science]] doesn't know something, or once got something wrong, then it can ''never'' be trusted again &lt;br /&gt;
**If the [[Bible]] doesn't know something, or once got something wrong, it has to be trusted time after time.  We simply don't mention the parts that are incorrect.&lt;br /&gt;
* The T-Rex ate 100 pound watermelons! &lt;br /&gt;
* During the 6 days of creation, God placed the Earth inside a black hole to slow down time so the light from distant stars had time to reach us.&lt;br /&gt;
* Nevertheless, black holes are a hoax created by the scientific establishment in order to sell magazines and distract people from reading the Bible&lt;br /&gt;
* Individuals not working in the biological sciences, including physicists, politicians and pundits, are qualified to speak on the validity of [[evolution]], even if they use the word in a different sense&lt;br /&gt;
* Because biological evolution is among the worst college courses. &lt;br /&gt;
* [[Conservapedia:Dinosaur|Dinosaurs]] and humans co-existed.&lt;br /&gt;
* Wait, actually, [[Conservapedia:Dinosaur|dinosaurs]] don't exist!&lt;br /&gt;
* Carbon-14 dating is crazily inaccurate.&lt;br /&gt;
* Carbon-14 dating is used on million-year-old fossils.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Richard Dawkins]] is a villain and not really a professor.&lt;br /&gt;
* Molecular biology has nothing to do with evolution.&lt;br /&gt;
* The [[Conservapedia:Censorship of Einstein and Relativity|theory of relativity]] is a liberal-Jewish-atheist-communist plot to, to....well, it's no good, dammit!&lt;br /&gt;
* Earth is the center of the universe.&lt;br /&gt;
* The [[universe]] is only 6,000 years old.&lt;br /&gt;
* And only has a 6,000 [[light year]] radius.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Abortion]] causes breast cancer.&lt;br /&gt;
* Scientists regularly make vast sums of money promoting the theory of evolution through interviews and book deals. That, and simply depositing their grant money into Swiss bank accounts with the help of their university accounting department.&lt;br /&gt;
* Teaching evolution makes people Convinced for Life that they need both kidneys, '''''directly resulting''''' in the deaths of thousands of patients each year who needed transplants but no kidney was available&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Seriously. http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Counterexamples_to_Evolution&amp;amp;diff=716507&amp;amp;oldid=716503&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
* If a scientific theory does not save lives, it isn't correct.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Psychology]] is a [[pseudoscience]].&lt;br /&gt;
* But we still know that [[atheism]] and homosexuality both have negative effects on mental health.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Political ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* All &amp;quot;liberals&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;leftists&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;socialists&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;communists&amp;quot; believe exactly the same things.  The only difference between Obama and Josef Stalin is that Obama hasn't executed millions of people. Yet.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Democracy]] can only exist in a &amp;quot;protestant Christian culture&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
** Even though Athens was a democracy and Rome a republic 500 years prior to the birth of Jesus.&lt;br /&gt;
* Wait.  Who says one needs democracy?  Introducing [[theocracy]], conforming the Christian tradition of rule by God!&lt;br /&gt;
* Questioning the President is treason!  (Unless the President is a Democrat.  Then, it's ''obligatory'' to question the President.)&lt;br /&gt;
* [[George W. Bush]] isn't a [[No true Scotsman|&amp;quot;real conservative&amp;quot;]]!&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Bruce Bartlett, a Republican economist, says, &amp;quot;Bush clearly is not a Reaganite or &amp;quot;small c&amp;quot; conservative. Philosophically, he has more in common with liberals.&amp;quot;  [http://www.hebookservice.com/products/BookPage.asp?prod_cd=c6872 Former Reagan economist exposes the Bush administration's radical departure from fundamental conservative principles and explains why it may cost the GOP the presidency and its congressional majority], ''Impostor: How George W. Bush Bankrupted America and Betrayed the Reagan Legacy''&lt;br /&gt;
by Bruce Bartlett, Human Events. - Please note all this shit was put here by {{subst:u|RobS}} the Conservapedia sysop in an attempt to defend this ridiculous position.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Barack Obama]] is a [[Muslim]] and his use of Lincoln's Bible in his inauguration was an overcompensating cover-up. He's also a [[communist]].&lt;br /&gt;
*In fact, he's not even president 'cause he was born in Kenya.&lt;br /&gt;
* Criticising neoCons is a form of antisemitism.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://mediamatters.org/research/200508180005 &amp;quot;Limbaugh, Coulter, Liddy, Hitchens, Barone continue attacks on Cindy Sheehan&amp;quot;], Media Matters website, 18 August 2005, accessed 22 January 2010.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;  ''&amp;quot;Just remember this, folks.  When [[liberals]] say '[[neoconservative|NeoCon]],' what they are really saying is '[[Jew]].'&amp;quot;''  [[Rush Limbaugh]] has said this several times on his radio program since the last days of Bill Clinton's presidency.&lt;br /&gt;
**On 22 January 2010, in the midst of the banking crisis, Limbaugh also said that [[Barack Obama|&amp;quot;some people&amp;quot;]] use &amp;quot;banker&amp;quot; as a codeword for &amp;quot;Jewish.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/01/22/rush-limbaugh-wonders-if_n_433583.html &amp;quot;Rush Limbaugh Wonders If 'Jewish Bankers' Will Have 'Buyer's Remorse' About Obama&amp;quot;], ''Huffington Post'' website, posted and accessed 22 January 2010.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* Tax cuts are ''always'' good.&lt;br /&gt;
* Democrats hate America!&lt;br /&gt;
* Liberals are inherently deceitful&lt;br /&gt;
* Only liberals can be deceitful&lt;br /&gt;
* Conservatives only tell the truth &lt;br /&gt;
* The [[Ten Commandments]] are the basis of America's government.&lt;br /&gt;
* The US Constitution created a Christian nation.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Ann Coulter]] is a serious political pundit&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Jonah Goldberg]] is a serious political pundit&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Fred Phelps]] is really a closet liberal&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Augusto Pinochet]] is a democratic leader who has been defamed by Wikipedia&lt;br /&gt;
* Andy says: the world is getting more conservative at an ever increasing rate&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;e.g. http://www.conservapedia.com/Essay:Best_New_Conservative_Words&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;, because the world was so [[European witch-hunts|much]] [[Slavery|more]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_papacy liberal] in the past.&lt;br /&gt;
* Andy says: &amp;quot;The intelligence of humans is rapidly declining&amp;quot; &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Counterexamples_to_an_Old_Earth&amp;amp;diff=770704&amp;amp;oldid=768620&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
** Compare previous two delusions.&lt;br /&gt;
* We need to spend billions of dollars on the [[Strategic Defense Initiative]] to defend ourselves from rogue states!&lt;br /&gt;
* Those with an open mind will agree with everything Andy says.&lt;br /&gt;
See also [[Conservapedia:Legal Errors on Conservapedia]] and [[Conservapedia:On liberalism]].&lt;br /&gt;
=== Terror ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* They only attacked us because terrorists hate our freedom!&lt;br /&gt;
* There is no evidence that the US government is torturing people!&lt;br /&gt;
* Well, that's not really torture.  And anyway, torture on evil freedom-hating terrorists is OK!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Historical ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The USA was Founded by Christians, for Christians.&lt;br /&gt;
* The evidence cited for a Viking settlement in Canada and the Asian migration to North America through Alaska are liberal plots by evil archaeologists to deprive Columbus of his glory.&lt;br /&gt;
* All positive achievements in history have come about as a result of Christian inspiration and divine providence.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Benjamin Franklin]] was not a [[deism|Deist]], or changed from Deist to Christian at some point, despite never describing himself as a Christian&lt;br /&gt;
* The Weimar Republic was extended past 1933; [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franz_Leopold_Neumann#Nuremberg.2C_Berlin.2C_New_York][http://org.law.rutgers.edu/publications/law-religion/articles/RJLR_3_1_2.pdf] quoting a scholarly publication which cites Dr. [[wp:Franz Leopold Neumann]], Chief Researcher for Justice Robert O. Jackson in preparation for the legal basis to prosecute Nazi war criminals at the Nuremberg War Crimes Tribunal,&lt;br /&gt;
{{Cquote|the typical [[wp:Frankfurt School]] methodology of “[[wp:Critical theory (Frankfurt School)|immanent critique]]”10 to argue that the Nazi regime can be convicted most effectively by demonstrating that it violates not only the laws of ‘foreign’ countries, such as those of its victors, but also the very ‘Germanic’ traditions this extreme nationalistic movement always purported to be militantly upholding. Indeed, from the start, the report argues that, unlike other civil liberty provisions, the '''key articles of the pre-Nazi ''Weimar constitution11 “were never formally abrogated'' by the National Socialist regime, … were left untouched and still ''remain theoretically in force.'''''”12 &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Claire Hulme &amp;amp; Dr. Michael Salter, [http://org.law.rutgers.edu/publications/law-religion/articles/RJLR_3_1_2.pdf The Nazi's Persecution as a War Crime: The OSS Response Within the Nuremeberg Trial's Process], Rutgers Journal of Law and Religion, n.d. &amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;}}&lt;br /&gt;
* The [[Godwin's Law|Nazi]]s were left-wing [http://www.theadvocates.org/quiz-faq.html#faq02]&lt;br /&gt;
* The Nazis were predominantly run by homosexuals, and supported homosexual goals&lt;br /&gt;
* Compulsory schooling in Germany was introduced by the Nazis, and American homeschooling websites are a better source for information on this topic than German laws are.&lt;br /&gt;
* The holocaust was caused by gun control [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Liberal_concealment&amp;amp;diff=599750&amp;amp;oldid=599719] and involved killing centers.&lt;br /&gt;
* Joseph McCarthy is much maligned (by the liberals), and his theory of &amp;quot;guilty until proven innocent&amp;quot; helped protect the United States in the 1950's.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Adolf Hitler]]'s evil actions actions prove that he was an atheist.&lt;br /&gt;
* Adolf Hitler proves that being an atheist makes people evil.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Iraq War ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Iraq helped ''plan'' 9/11!&lt;br /&gt;
* Well, maybe not, but the Iraq Government was ''in league with Al-Qaeda''! &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;9/11 Commission Report[http://www.gpoaccess.gov/911/pdf/sec2.pdf ''The Foundation of the New Terrorism''], pgs. 61, 66.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* Well, maybe they weren't, but Iraq had ''Weapons of Mass Destruction'', &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.archive.org/details/HillaryClintonsviewsongoingtowarSaddamandWMDs Hillary Clinton's views on going to war, Saddam, and WMD]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; meaning Iraq was an ''Imminent Threat'' to the USA! &lt;br /&gt;
* Well, maybe they didn't HAVE them, but Iraq ''wanted'' Weapons of Mass Destruction! &lt;br /&gt;
{{Cquote|'''Key Findings'''&lt;br /&gt;
*[Saddam Hussein] wanted to end sanctions while preserving the capability to reconstitute his weapons of mass destruction (WMD) when sanctions were lifted. &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.lib.umich.edu/govdocs/pdf/duelfer1_b.pdf Regime Strategic Intent], Duelfer Report, 2004, Key Findings, pg. 1.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;}}&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Essay:Liberals want the US to Lose in Iraq|Liberals want the US to Lose in Iraq]]!&lt;br /&gt;
* The real cause of the war is not about oil prices, and dollar designated bank accounts turning into euro designated bank accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Theological ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Homophobia|God hates homosexuals]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Only those who believe in God-preferably the Christian one-are moral people.  Atheists, agnostics, etc., are necessarily immoral.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Sexuality ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Sex is dirty&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Goats]] are unclean&lt;br /&gt;
* The human body is sinful&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Bisexuality]] doesn't exist&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Homosexuality]] is a mental disorder that may be cured through therapy and prayer.&lt;br /&gt;
* Homosexuals REALLY want to turn god-fearing conservatives gay. Nothing turns a homosexual on more than a balding, 50-something, overweight, wall-eyed conservative.&lt;br /&gt;
* Homosexuals are more disease-ridden than all the pigeons and rats in New York.&lt;br /&gt;
* Despite all appearances to the contrary, the conservatives that most emphatically decry homosexuality &amp;lt;b&amp;gt;ARE NOT GAY&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; themselves.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Gender expression|Gender identity disorder]] is the new diagnosis for homosexuality&lt;br /&gt;
* Homosexuals are desperate for love they didn't receive from parents[http://www.conservapedia.com/Talk:Homosexuality#Protests_against_the_Bible.27s_point_of_view] (how Freudian)&lt;br /&gt;
* Sex should be done only in the dark with your married partner.   When performing the vile sex act with your paid sex worker however, you should have all the lights on and film the event for the internet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Economic ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Deregulation always helps industry, the economy and the people, because regulation of any kind serves no protective function. Well, except for social regulation (banning free trade in [[Pr0n|smut]], for example), which is of course vital and necessary to protect society from people who are or think differently from the mythical &amp;quot;norm.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*Public services are bad (presumably including the military, police, fire, EMS, and state universities). The only way anything can possibly be of any benefit to society is if the State is not involved with it.&lt;br /&gt;
* The minimum wage causes school dropouts.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tax cuts are always the best economic strategy.  '''ALWAYS'''. Even if it means taking on large amounts of debt to fund a war, tax cuts are good. If you can't understand why tax cuts are good in a given situation, it's because your faith is weak.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Education ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Any Tom, Dick, or Herschel off the street can start calling himself an Oxford Professor and the college won't object as long as he's an atheist&lt;br /&gt;
* A parent, after reading a book or two, is a much better teacher than a trained professional who spent several years and several hundred thousand dollars learning to teach&lt;br /&gt;
* Keeping your student home everyday and preventing him/her from interacting with any differing viewpoint until it's so burnt in that they can't go against it is a good thing&lt;br /&gt;
* Public schools don't teach that lying, drug use, violence, casual sex or theft are wrong....but that prayer IS.&lt;br /&gt;
* In fact, any form of prayer is completely outlawed in public schools. If they catch you silently praying before a class, they will probably publicly beat you.&lt;br /&gt;
* There's no point ''reading'' any books to educate oneself - a much better strategy is to sit down, pick a topic you know absolutely jack shit about, and ''write'' a book about it.   Once this book is written, use the book to teach others.&lt;br /&gt;
* That is, if you can even read, because liberals censored the use of phonics in public schools, which is why the literacy rate in Chicago is lower than in ancient Rome. They do this so they can control the uneducated masses!&lt;br /&gt;
* Going to public school will get you killed in no time in a hail of gunfire by drive-by satanist drug-addled crazies wearing black clothing - but this happens because of atheism and '''not''' personal firearms, that would be crazy!&lt;br /&gt;
* In fact, these murders would've been prevented if the students would be allowed to carry a Defensive weapon of gun!&lt;br /&gt;
* English majors are the most radicalized students on campus. That's why it was no surprise that Cho Seung-Hui, the murderer of 32 students and teachers at Virginia Tech, was an English major.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=22644#continueA&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* Andrew Schlafly is capable of teaching to college entrance level.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Logical ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Ad hominem]] is a valid form for an argument.&lt;br /&gt;
* A single counterexample refutes an argument that states that something happens ''most'' of the time.&lt;br /&gt;
* However, several counterexamples do not refute an argument that states that something always or never happens.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Quote mining]] does not exist. It is simply a plot by liberals to prevent people from telling them what their words mean, rather than them telling us what they meant. However, when accusations similar to this are leveled at liberals, it is called a &amp;quot;quote out of context,&amp;quot; which exists, despite the fact that it is exactly the same as quote mining.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Conservapedia itself==&lt;br /&gt;
* Contributing to Conservapedia strengthens the mind.&lt;br /&gt;
* Whatever &amp;lt;s&amp;gt;Assfly&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt; Andrew Schlafly says must be true, no matter how stupid it sounds.&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;quot;Conservapedia doesn't censor.&amp;quot;  And if anyone says differently, we'll block them forever and delete everything they've ever posted.&lt;br /&gt;
* The three day lock put on the &amp;quot;wp:Richard Dawkins&amp;quot; article is censorship. The permanent locks on various CP articles such as &amp;quot;atom&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;kangaroo&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Ann Coulter&amp;quot; is somehow not censorship. (Somehow censorship is achieved through ''not'' locking the articles)&lt;br /&gt;
* Ignoring arguments/evidence or banning people with different opinions and deleting their comments are acceptable acts in a civilised debate&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussions in conservapedia should be a meritocracy! Its OK to ignore people's opinions/arguments if they refuse to contribute to a stupidly biased, pointless &amp;quot;encyclopedia&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*In fact people shouldn't have a right to express their opinions unless they have contibuted in an &amp;lt;s&amp;gt;insanely biased, pointless&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt; acceptable way to conservapedia.&lt;br /&gt;
*If you're 95% sure of someone's views on abortion and school prayer you don't have to listen to their argument on any topic.&lt;br /&gt;
*Hell, even if you're not 95% sure of someone's beliefs you can make these numbers up meaning you don't have to listen to anyone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Miscellaneous==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Ann Coulter]] is an expert on...well..anything, except delusional self promotion.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Rush Limbaugh]] is a &amp;lt;s&amp;gt;big fat idiot&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;  &amp;lt;s&amp;gt;drug addled Palm Beach elitist&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt; &amp;lt;s&amp;gt;Viagra-using sex tourist&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt; champion of the common man!&lt;br /&gt;
* Everything broadcast by [[Fox News]] is incontrovertible FACT.&lt;br /&gt;
* Every word that comes out of the mouth of any member of the Bush family is FACT&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Including [[wp:Read my lips: no new taxes|this]]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;, except when GWB was 'mislead' to believe in anthropogenic global warming.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Ronald Reagan]] wasn't quite the Second Coming, but he was fricking close.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Bill Clinton]] is the [[Anti-Christ]].   No wait, [[Hillary Clinton]] is the AntiChrist. Dammit, we meant [[Obama]] is the Antichrist!&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Margaret Thatcher]] was Our Kind of Woman, and every word that came out of her mouth was FACT. Except when she was in favor of [[gun control]] or the British system of [[Universal health care]], in that case she was just a dirty foreign liberal.&lt;br /&gt;
* A slight decline in new editors signing up at [[Wikipedia]] is a direct result of their 'censoring' of the [[wp:Richard Dawkins]] article.&lt;br /&gt;
* People who trample on the American flag MUST BE liberals.&lt;br /&gt;
* The term &amp;quot;flood&amp;quot; and its derivatives are downplayed by the media&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Template%3AMainpageright&amp;amp;action=historysubmit&amp;amp;diff=912162&amp;amp;oldid=912160][[:File:Capture 027cf28a57ce377b76df3185d5b6608029b4820a.png]]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; despite Andy's cited sources for this claim using the word numerous times.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Andrew Schlafly]] is a competent lawyer. (see the [[Lenski affair]])&lt;br /&gt;

In addition, the popularity of the katana is not entirely reflective of the full combat repertoire of the historical samurai; swords were often secondary weapons to long spears, bows, and other weapons, none of which bear the glory of the katana and accompanying blades (wakazashi, etc.) in modern times. Katanas were like pistols, used by samurai mainly for one-on-one dueling rather than open combat, or as a last resort weapon if it came &lt;/del&gt;to that.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-marker'&gt;+&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style=&quot;background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;Among the most common assertions is that the Japanese katana is the sharpest, best, or otherwise coolest sword ever designed.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;http://www.squidoo.com/sharpest-weapon-ever&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; There exist hundreds of videos on [[YouTube]] of katanas pitted against various substances and objects,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt; [http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=katana+cutting&amp;amp;oq=katana+cutting&amp;amp;aq=0&amp;amp;aqi=g10&amp;amp;aql=&amp;amp;gs_l=youtube-psuggest.3.0.0l10.6178.6929.0.8284.7.4.0.3.3.1.629.900.3j5-1.4.0...0.0.
