Flesh[edit]

I assume ur gonna flesh this out a little, so i won't jump in yet.--PalMD-Goatspeed! 15:08, 9 July 2007 (CDT)

As much as I love the CP analogies, if we want to appeal to a broader audience, we may wish to move them elsewhere and replace them with a typical creationist argument, such as watch/living being analogy.--PalMD-Goatspeed! 16:57, 9 July 2007 (CDT)
:( I like my analogies. Maybe we should create a page where we use the bad argumentative tactics against creationists, conservapedia-ists, etc. Thunderkatz 17:28, 9 July 2007 (CDT)
Aschlafly is like the king of Conservapedia.
Kings are often killed by their advisors who want to take the throne.
Aschlafly will soon be killed by a fellow sysop.
Most likely, this is not true.

I don't know about this last part, have you ever paid attention to TK? Locke User is Vandal/sysop Always Watching...... 19:17, 26 August 2007 (CDT)

Silence, insolent scum! Do not disparage your rightful master so! TK 19:25, 26 August 2007 (CDT)

I like the CP analogies, but should they not be a fun page instead? Crundy 06:40, 25 July 2008 (EDT)
