Conservapedia talk:What is going on at CP?/Archive275

Fucking spellcheckers. How do they work?
Knowing how Andy (and Ken) like to disparage other editors over spelling mistakes and tell them to use Firefox, I like how it took one of CP's least literate sysops to correct Andy's misspelling of heroes. Also, after Ken berated someone on the QE talk page about their spelling he still managed to come up with diagnosises on his very next edit. 11:54, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Integrity has never really been their strong point... ONE / TALK 12:29, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I wonder if Andy knows that Firefox mocks the Bible (specifically The Book of The Revelations of St. John the Divine). CS Miller (talk) 13:01, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * IIRC pointing out Andy's bad grammar/spelling used to be a blockable offense, although that was probably just TK trolling his nipples off. -- PsyGremlin  13:16, 18 January 2012 (UTC)

The Real Problem With Media Today? The Audience
Interesting article at Huffington Post. Conseravapedia gets an honorific mention: Even Fox News isn't a safe enough haven for some lunatics on the right side of the aisle. One "Christian" felt so threatened by Wikipedia's arrangement of fact that he had to develop his own Conservapedia. When he eventually realized that the Bible didn't agree with him any more than science, history or the arts, he decided to re-write that, too. I imagine this man does a lot of angry crying. I also imagine that somewhere a teacher is reading a paper that cites a Conservapedia article, sighing and thinking it's just not worth the fight with the parents. Sad, but true. 15:30, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I sincerely hope that outside of Andy's poor, abused home-scholars, who probably don't know better, nobody is citing CP as a source. Unless it's for articles such as this one. Methinks that quote can be put to good use. -- PsyGremlin  15:40, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Time until Andy goes apoplectic: 2 hours. Time until he starts denying the existence of that site: 2.02 hours. Time until he starts crying: 2.03 hours. Time until he stops crying: Uncertain. --Veni Vidi.png Feci.png 17:45, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Starts crying? that would imply he has stopped crying since his political career crashed and burned in 92 along with $84 thousand of his inheritance and forever lost the love of his dear sweet mother. Judge HoldenThe Judge Smiles 21:10, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I took the liberty of bolding the best line in that quote. The final line of the article is pretty poignant:  "After all, if you're convinced the facts are working for the 'other team,' the other team is reality."  -- Seth Peck (talk) 18:08, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Andy is busy enough with his SOPA crusade that he can safely ignore an article from a source in his liberal claptrap pile. It's hilarious, he's trying to pin the entire damn mess on Harry Reid and Hollywood, even though the House bill was introduced by a Republican. He didn't even want to mention the guys damn name, Lamar Smith R-TX, unless he could insert another line about "liberal deceit" in how Harry Reid named the bill.Tesformes (talk) 19:43, 18 January 2012b (UTC)
 * Its a primal reaction of one such as Andy who believes that the bill is indeed a threat, yet can do nothing but impotently scream that it was the fault of those he resents, and final validation of the fact that he REALLY believes his own propaganda. If the bill can theoretically be used unduly to remove dissenting content from the internet by government, in andy's mind it is a conspiracy directed at both conservapedia, and him personally as he somehow constitutes one of the left wing's most feared and influential enemies, in a true synthesis of persecution complex, superiority complex, and all of his bitter, bitter resentment.

Ed at WP
"People: Stop making shitty stubs Ed's response? "The lifeblood of wikipedia is stubs!" --il&#39;Dictator Mikal (talk) 22:54, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
 * They really ought to ban him. He's incorrigible. This is exactly why he won the Conservapedia's Biggest Idiot Emeritus award, he really doesn't understand how much work he makes for everyone else. At least in the CP ghetto nobody cares when he fucks the place up. -- 23:11, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Uncle Ed's usual mechanism to cope with such hard times is to share his misery with the editors at Conservapedia: we can expect quite a few amusing blocks and requests for writing-plans in near future, while Ed tries to bully up his mood... 23:01, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I empathize with Ed -- he's just trying to help out, but he's too stupid to see that he's just being a dumbass, which is how I act a lot of the time. Flitzer talk to me :D 02:35, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Fuck that Fallacy. Ed proudly proclaims his wiki-fu like a damned maestro. His dumbasstry is legend, you my friend could never scale his heights of stupidity. AceModerator 06:54, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, I don't stalk the sysops at Conservapedia, so I wouldn't know. He does seem to me to be the most sincere out of them. Fucker talk to me :D 07:24, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * hes as bad and hypocritical as the rest. Now im trying to remember the link i posted a while ago about how Ed deleted the delete page on wikipedia or something along that line of page. --il&#39;Dictator Mikal (talk) 07:34, 17 January 2012 (UTC)

 * yah. knew ut was some title like that. danke--il&#39;Dictator Mikal (talk) 07:44, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I remember when that happened, though it was long before I knew who Ed was. As I recall about half a dozen people on some talk page were bitching about the deletion process at WP, so Ed decided to Be Bold and delete it, after which he took his usual idiot grin strategy, basically saying that he found a page that had widespread disapproval and decided there was a consensus to get rid of it, so he did. How could anyone blame him for that? Every few years he gets re-nominated for adminship over there, which is always amusing to watch. Turpis 3:16 (talk) 13:20, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Among the many(!) "Dear Ed, your shit is gonna get nuked" notifications, I found this article, which really showcases the conflict between Ed "make article by throwing in random quotes about random subject and wait for others to do all the heavy lifting" Poor and the rest of Wikipedia. *le sigh* --Sid (talk) 14:01, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I would love to know what proportion of Ed's stubs have been deleted over at wikipedia, and how that proportion has changed over time. *looks pointedly at larron, with puppy eyes* ONE / TALK 14:23, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * sorry, I can't help: once a page is deleted at WP, I have no possibility to see the history - and especially not who made the first edit, i.e., who created the article. 15:48, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * That's a damn shame. What about scouring Ed's talk page (and its archives) for article deletion notices? Or is that too complicated for a script to do? ONE / TALK 16:21, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Assuming he has a WP account, we could try to get larron to be a WP sysop. That would do it. Turpis 3:16 (talk) 16:23, 17 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Here's the list of Ed's deleted articles on Wikipedia, sorted by creation date and including edit summaries. It includes about a hundred redirects left over from pagemoves, so you'll want to exclude those if you're doing any statistical analysis. --173.254.192.35 (talk) 06:27, 18 January 2012 (UTC)

Didn't this[] stupid crap get deleted from Wikipedia? Now its in a new home, safe in the bowels of Andy's bowels. I guess that's one more difference between CP and WP: CP is perfectly ok with being a dumping ground for Ed's shit.Tesformes (talk) 18:38, 19 January 2012 (UTC)

Is this a first?
CP and RW are in general agreement on a major political issue. (Ken isn't wild about SOPA, either.) MDB (talk) 15:46, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Even Jpratt seems to be against it, although that's probably because of his "Ug! Obama Bad! Me have banana now!" mentality (with apologies to monkeys everywhere) -- PsyGremlin  15:58, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm honestly surprised the rabid right are railing against it. I'd have thought they'd lap it up with fevered excitement. Even if they haven't read the bill and know nothing about what it does, they'd at least have heard that it is being opposed by such bastions of Liberalism as Liberal google, Liberal wikipedia and Liberal facebook. If it's pissing off liberals, that makes it Wholly Good & Conservative in their minds. So what's up? (Although it#s worth noting that Andy doesn't seem to have expressed opinion yet.... CP waits with bated breath for Dear Leader to speak) ONE / TALK 16:18, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Also, I can't wait for SOPA and PIPA to be tarred as liberal legislature by CP. ONE / TALK 16:20, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Actually, this is the second time in a month that CP and RW have agreed. Karajou recently posted on MPR about the indefinite detention clause in the DOD bill. Of course, he put the blame squarely in liberals. Turpis 3:16 (talk) 16:22, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I really thought they'd love the idea of it. They'd be able to shut down RW without much effort.  -Lardashe
 * You're not giving them enough credit for being insane. The government will attack CP because of the liberal deceit they expose. Obama is champing at the bit, just waiting to pull the plug on sites who spurn the lamescreed media and choose cover the real issues. Andy, JPatt and Terry should all bask in this healthy paranoia. Occasionaluse (talk) 17:25, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I think you are mixing conservatives with Conservapedia. CP is not an accurate representation of conservative thought, it's instead just some bizarre stick shooting off of the religious extremist branch.--BMcP - Just an astronomy guy 18:30, 17 January 2012 (UTC)

Are you people kidding me? Of course they are against it — who's the goddamn President? Obama can't do anything right! The dude could give every CP admin a medal of honor for their "brave" fighting against liberals and they'd whine about the medal being to expensive. Fuck, Obama could commit suicide with a gun from the Secret Service and they'd be pissed that the bullet would be government funded! Jesus, for crying out loud… These people do not have ideals, they have loyalties. That's what CP is all about. -- 18:11, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * You know, now that Obama's come out against it, it'll be interesting to see if they flip flop. It would also be interesting to know if Kenny only opposes it because it might impede his access to unamusing pictures of dogs and matadors for his essays. --Veni Vidi.png Feci.png 18:53, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Given the amount of copyright infringement at CP you can bet darn well that they're against it. 19:07, 17 January 2012 (UTC)

 * I do find "the content will be more neutral than it has ever been when it is all blank" amusing.  21:40, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Good news, Mr. Launchbooty say's his site "will join the blackout". So 7 or 8 people will need to go elsewhere for their daily dose of birtherism. Also, SOPA is all Obama's fault. Not the fault of the Republican controlled house it came from.--Thunderstruck (talk) 01:32, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * How is it obama's fault when 1) he is against it, and 2) the bill was proposed (in both houses) by republicans and the repblicans are a majority vote??????[[Image:Pink mowse.png|25px]]Godot   Dear god, fucking grow up 01:34, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * The president is the poster boy of the US government, therefor, all happenings are his fault, no matter what. This is standard US thought--il&#39;Dictator Mikal (talk) 01:35, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * The bill has bipartisan support. And you know what that means: RINOs. PeterQuasniki 2012!
 * I will give Terry credit, he actually followed through on his pronouncement and joined the protest, good for him (+1 for Terry). However in true Conservapedia fashion, he turned the whole SOPA issue into a "blame Obama" game; he just can't seem to take the blinders off, even for this one time we would likely back his stand 100%, so -1 for Terry and he is back to being a zero.  Also I see you are going with Launchbooty; that name makes me snicker every time I read it.--BMcP - Just an astronomy guy 13:37, 18 January 2012 (UTC)

 * I'll give Launchbooty credit, 2 posts, No mention of "Obama NOT being president."--Thunderstruck (talk) 02:03, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Part of me now kinda hopes that SOPA does pass and Obama makes a point to specifically and publicly use the powers SOPA grants to shut down Conservapedia, just so I can see if I have the force-like ability to sense the amazing mix of rage, vindication and egotism that'd come from the CP sysops from afar. X Stickman (talk) 02:11, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Better yet, I hope it reaches his desk, and Obama publicly VETOS it. Then Conservapedia would be forced to swollow their pride and acknowledge Obama did good. That would cause them to be physically ill.--Thunderstruck (talk) 02:17, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Obama vetoing SOPA only proves he is ANTI-business and wants to drive capitalism INTO THE GROUND--il&#39;Dictator Mikal (talk) 02:33, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Mikalos is right; they won't acknowledge Obama did the right thing, they'll just flip-flop their stance.--BMcP - Just an astronomy guy 13:48, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, I guess it's hard to acknowledge that Obama did something right, when your definition of wrong is "what Obama and other liberals do". --Maquissar (talk) 18:54, 18 January 2012 (UTC)

What planet is Andy on?
When Wikipedia's liberal heroes Hollywood, Harry Reid and Barack Obama support controlling the internet with SOPA, does Wikipedia criticize them? No, instead Wikipedia punishes internet users by darkening its pages. I know Andypants just has to twist everything to suit his bizarre worldview, but seeing WP's blanking of its pages as support for Obama and SOPA takes his crazy to whole new levels. -- PsyGremlin  10:59, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm surprised he hasn't claimed that Wikipedia's blackout has resulted in users flocking to CP in droves, all craving that sweet sweet encyclopedic information that CP does so well to provide. ONE / TALK 11:07, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Didn't SOPA pass the House with all Republicans voting for it? Are all those Republicans RINOs now? -- 12:53, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * SOPA is still in committee. --Michaeldsuarez (talk) 13:45, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * You people understood that jumbled up word salad? All I got was "SOPA bad, WIKIPEDIA bad, BARACK OBAMA bad."--Thunderstruck (talk) 14:13, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * This is kind of fun. Andy starts out angry and then we get to watch him figure out why. Right now he doesn't understand the difference between SOPA and PIPA. It's going to be fun to watch him dance around the fact that the Obama administration isn't exactly supportive of this legislation (another thing I don't think Andy has discovered yet). Occasionaluse (talk) 15:13, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * This may be Irrelevant but did anyone else notice him personalize "Hollywood" as a singular "liberal hero"? does he really, honestly envisage any loose institution as being sentient and full of malice for conservatism as defined and personalized by him and conservapedia (which would also explain his crowing over apparently falling tv viewings which he desperately insists means people are flocking to his blog)? is this another sign of his growing bugfuckery insane mental state? Seriously he is becoming disturbingly like the time cube guy with every passing day Judge HoldenThe Judge Smiles 21:34, 18 January 2012 (UTC)

Andy comes out in favour of piracy
Damn Hollywood and those record labels! Clearly Andy is a big fan of The Pirate Bay and Soulseek. -- PsyGremlin  15:20, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * To be fair to him (argh), he has always claimed that hollywood and the media in general is liberal as hell. SOPA (and other such things) is being pushed hugely by media organisations like the RIAA and MPAA and such, so it's fairly consistent for him to claim both SOPA is liberal and bad and the organisations pushing it are. The idea itself is very conservative (they are in effect trying to do the... damn it I wanted to link to wikipedia but I forgot. Remember that thing where there was a court case about Betamax? With some media companies claiming it would destroy cinema and such? This new crusade against piracy is basically that, again, because they want their current business models to reign supreme and not have to bother doing new stuff) in a technical "keep shit how it is" sense, but whether it's conservative or liberal in a political sense I'm not sure. I'd argue since the primary goal behind it is to protect corporate interests it's fairly conservative but I'm terrible at categorising shit like this. X Stickman (talk) 15:39, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Andy is a Harvard educated lawyer... sorry, his mummy bought him a law degree from Havard. If he's too stupid (or lazy) to actually understand what the bill is about, but rather hang it on his usual "liberals bad" meme, Harvard should ask for their degree back. Now wonder a couple of state SCs have facepalmed at him. -- PsyGremlin  15:50, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * MPAA and RIAA are people too, and they're job creators at that. There's nothing liberal about what they're doing by protecting their intellectual property. What Andy disagrees with here, I can't imagine...but I'm guessing it's "Obama". Occasionaluse (talk) 16:27, 18 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Wow, they just came right out and punched good grammar in the mouth with that one.--BMcP - Just an astronomy guy 16:35, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
 * He did say "proper nouns", so Magellanic and perhaps Hispanic count, but not the others. In any case, Andy seems to think that the term "Democrat" came first and "Democrat(ic) party" is derived from it.  I would've thought that "Democratic party" came first, with "Democrat" the derivative term.  To be sure, I'm guessing here.  Phiwum (talk) 17:07, 18 January 2012 (UTC)

To any living, breathing, thinking, sane, and vaguely conscious life-form this would be an indicator of a conservative, but as in the case of known abortion supporter Sloshy Santorum, when you either disagree with andy or are responsible for something bad, you are and forever will be an evil, evil LIEberal.... until our lord, savior, redeemer and educator Andy says otherwise.

Yeah, you read that right.--Thunderstruck (talk) 02:42, 19 January 2012 (UTC)

Hollywood is liberal and now Silicon Valley is conservative?
Maybe I missed it, but I'm surprised nobody has pointed out that the opposition to SOPA/PIPA are the same websites that Andy decries as liberal: Google, Facebook, Wikipedia, etc. Check out their CP articles. Silicon Valley is incredibly liberal, and gives as much money as Hollywood, and likely more, in campaign contributions to Democrats. In order for Andy Logic to work, he has to ignore that this was a bipartisan effort and that both primary sides for/against are huge liberal bases. --Phil Leotardo da Vinci (talk) 15:27, 19 January 2012 (UTC)

 * My guess? "Release the Data" combined with some shoehorned argument about how such a life form still required a creator or something about guided evolution. Still curious about the effectiveness in brewing (will Thomas chime in with an opinion?), but probably unanswerable by the original scientists due to small sample sizes.  -- Seth Peck (talk) 21:21, 18 January 2012 (UTC)

 * And the only "As seen on" links to our RC.

 * I've avoided saying anything about him, but that video does come across having a really eerie quality. It looks like it could easily come from a found footage horror movie. -Lardashe
 * The fact that it looks like the camera is stationary (rather than him holding it) because he keeps stepping away from it and moving around without the camera moving makes it weirder, somehow, because the camera's so poorly placed. X Stickman (talk) 13:15, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I think it's all the liplicking, eyes darting back and forth, and constant shifting/rocking side to side. The Hitler Haircut, pederast glasses, low camera POV, and oddly immobile upper lip certainly don't mitigate the creepy factor.

 * By my understanding an ad-hom is an attempt to discredit someone's claim with an irrelevant fact (or non-fact, as the case may be) about the person. Nobody here is saying "He's creepy, therefore he's wrong about things" - they're just saying "He's creepy, therefore aaaaaaa!!". It's not an ad-hom, it's just a classic, bog-standard insult.

 * Putting aside all the personal insults and the like, the reason his video is so poorly received is because it is absolute terrible quality. You can barely make out what he says as the background noise simply overwhelms.  The lighting is terrible and because of that, the way his shadow is cast over his face by looking down at the camera gives him a gaunt and creepy look.  On top of all of this, the video appears to be pointless, a video just saying where he visited for the day and that's it?  Why would anyone care?

Goddamit, Ed Poor is an idiot.
On the 13th of January, the Costa Concordia ran aground. You may remember that, seeing as it's dominated the news ever since. Late in the evening of January 19th, ed decides this is news suitable for the "What the Mainstream Media Is Not Telling You" feature. Hey Ed, log on here and tell us when "old news" became just "news." P-Foster Talk " a cheetos-eating, Mountain-Dew drinking vlogger living in someone's basement. " 05:33, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

 * ...and apparently has no concept as what it means to be a ship's captain. Say what you want about the captain leaving before everyone else was off, Ed wants to know why "the ship was off course".  Um...the ship's course is determined by the captain, or the first mate when the captain is unavailable, not by the cruise line's head office; it is then verified by the navigator, directed by the helmsman, and guided by millions of dollars worth of GPS equipment...maybe it's because they didn't account for relativity? Or maybe the captain was at dinner meeting with honored guests, as they often do during cruises, and someone at the helm messed up?  The REAL question is "what happened that caused some people to not make it off the boat?" -- Seth Peck (talk) 07:01, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * What is it about Ed that he needs to post the coastguard's words? OK, he censors the English translation but posts the actual Italian. It's just like when he posts all that sexual stuff so that he can take a high moral tone about how perverted it is.   08:20, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

 * I think it's perfectly fine to ask why the ship was off course. While the captain does indeed determine the course, the course was already established both by precedent and within boundaries dictated by the safety of charted waters. As well as being responsible for the evacuation of passengers - a responsibility he appears to have deemed less important than his own safety - he was also responsible for the ship's course and its deviation from it. As this deviation led to the ship striking a rock and its eventual capsize, it is perfectly reasonable to ask why it happened. Ajkgordon (talk) 10:07, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Is anyone disputing that? At the moment the evidence points to it being some careless act of bravado by the captain followed by panic. The point here is why is this 'breaking news' at CP and what is the point of asking that question in the edit summary. It's almost as if Ed is suggesting that it's part of a liberal, global warming conspiracy. Steven Kavanagh (talk) 11:02, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Er, yes. Seth Peck appeared to be, hence my post. Unless I misread what he wrote. Ajkgordon (talk) 11:48, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't speak Italian but the Urban Dictionary tells me that "cazzo" means "dick". So why did Ed censor that as he has used that word himself on CP? Steven Kavanagh (talk) 11:28, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * The captain is an Eyetalian, therefore a liberal. A true conservative would never have done that. --<font face="Wild Words"> PsyGremlin  11:30, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * "Cazzo" means "dick" in the same way that "fuck" means "have sex with" - it's very versatile, and can be used for phrases like "fuck off" and "don't give a fuck", even though they don't make sense literally. So this particular use of Cazzo could easily be interpreted as "get the fuck back on the ship", which some media outlets have been using, but the grammar suggests to me something like "get back on the ship, dickhead" or "get back on the ship, for fucksake". ONE / TALK 12:46, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Swearing and profanity vary by culture and time. As a kid I never heard 'fuck', 'cunt' or 'shit' and using 'bloody', 'damn' or 'hell' could get you a clip round the ear. During the recent airings of the Danish series The Killing on the BBC, the subtitles indicated the characters using 'fuck' although the original Danish was much milder when translated. 13:03, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * "Captain is Italian". That really does seem to be the elephant in the room, doesn't it? The unspoken-but-you-know-most-people-are-thinking-it "Well, he's Italian. What do you expect?" and "A British/American/whatever captain would never have done that."

 * (EC) Seems to me that this suspicion of latent racism says more about you than it says about CP or any other reports of the accident that I've read or heard. An accident occurred.  It is a newsworthy and interesting story.  The captain happens to be Italian.  I sure as heck don't see why this fact suggests hidden stereotypes are a motivation or significant factor in this story.  (Maybe I'm naive, but the nationality of the captain really was an insignificant factor in the story.  I just don't see it.) It seems to me that the most blatant stereotype going on here is that all conservatives (or CPers) are closet racists. Phiwum (talk) 13:49, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Bollocks it does. And I wasn't referring to CP (although I could have made that clearer). I'm talking more about your stereotypical Daily Mail/Telegraph reading Little Englander or the American equivalent and their stereotypes of Italians and other southern Europeans being cowards. Jeez, lighten up. Ajkgordon (talk) 14:10, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I simply don't see any indication of racism in the treatments of the story I've read or heard. I'm no mindreader, so I can't speculate on how readers react to it, unless the reaction is overt.  I'm also very reluctant to claim someone is a closet racist unless the evidence is fairly clear.  In fact, doing so in this case is a pretty clear form of distasteful stereotyping in my humble opinion. Phiwum (talk) 15:58, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * OK, but I think you're being a little naive. A few quick links for you describing the very common prejudice. From the less than excitable Independent, the sober Guardian, and finally from the aforementioned Daily Mail. None claim they agree that the stereotypes are true; but they admit that they are common. And that was simply ten seconds on Google. Pointing out ill-concealed stereotyping is not stereotyping itself. That is where you seem confused. Ajkgordon (talk) 17:32, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I haven't seen any headlines like those in U.S. media, but perhaps that has to do with the media I choose. Phiwum (talk) 18:28, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Then I suggest you read a little more widely before making the accusations above. Ajkgordon (talk) 18:53, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * You're blowing this out of proportion. The original mention of the captain's nationality was as a reason why CP might be linking the story on MPR. From what I read of the news, they are attacking the captain for his actions, not his nationality. Although, there does seem to be a case for not having a captain from a Mediterranean country on board, if your ship is sinking. "When I give the order abandon ship, it doesn't matter what time I leave. Abandon is for everybody. If some people want to stay, they can stay." --<font face="Wild Words"> PsyGremlin  16:06, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * As someone who spends a good deal of time doing lifeboat drills, offshore survival courses and helicopter underwater escape training, the captain, if able, is the last one to depart in an abandonment. In this case there seems to have been a serious dereliction in not getting people to lifeboat stations much earlier. The priority is always to get the most vulnerable and least-trained off first, those with experience and know-how are the last to leave. 16:45, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

Is Andy really conservative?
I wonder if Andy might be losing interest in hard-core, lunatic-fringe, freak-show conservative politics? He hasn't contributed a huge amount to CP lately. Just looking at the last 500 edits, very few are by him and almost all of those are about SOPA/PIPA, on which subject he agrees with his old mate Barry O'Barmy. Could Andy possibly be becoming a liberal or at least a moderate? Just a thought. The Real James Brown (talk) 17:40, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Andy's not a conservative; Andy's an anti-liberal. He looks at what liberals believe and selects the opposite position. If Obama endorsed puppy dogs today, Andy would immediately go out and buy a cat. MDB (talk) 17:45, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 * It works the other way, too. If Andy gets an opinion on something, he automatically assumes liberals are against it, like with the recent SOPA thing. He assumes Obama is secretly supportive of SOPA even though Obama directly came out and said he was against it, and assumes anyone who is actually against (like Lamar Smith) is secretly a liberal. He lives in a fantasy world where Liberals have a set of beliefs and Conservatives have another, directly opposed, set of beliefs and the two groups never overlap in their positions.

Jpatt's crusade against anti-gun laws gets weirder
What exactly is his point here? He's seemingly painting the story as bad, but doesn't it imply that the evil things he mentions (high taxes, anti-gun laws) are working to fight crime? Or is he just complaining that this happens so infrequently?

 * ANECDOTE ALERT. I worked in Dallas for 3 months back in the late 70's, during that time the local paper printed a list of all the homicides in the Dallas area, ~850 of them. That was way more than  all the murders in the UK. Many of them occurred because of quite trivial things, like noisy stereo or cutting in front of someone on the freeway, So yes, let's just arm everyone so that they can eliminate all those who are annoying in some way. 20:23, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Yes, but not by a factor of four (850 to 166, or whatever the greater Dallas figure is). Evidently, statewide, the number of homocides have fallen to about half the 1979 figures.  (Because population has increased, the rate has decreased somewhat more.) Phiwum (talk) 02:07, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
 * (EC) In 1979, the entire state of Texas had 2235 homocides. It's possible, I guess, that 850 of those were in the Dallas area.  (Your post wasn't clear, but I assume the 850 figure was for the whole year and not the three months you were there.)Phiwum (talk) 02:01, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

Tasteless to the end: In the meantime, whoever is behind the "It Gets Better" program should do a much more careful job vetting its spokesmen, since at the moment, it looks an awful lot like an inadvertant homosexual suicide campaign straight out of the movie Heathers.

Ken is a closeted self-hating homosexual. We should feel sorry for him, and pray that he enters into the joy of accepting his own feelings. Andy probably is too.

 * Sarah, I don't think your argument about the relationship between homophobia and sexual identity is going to go very far without harder evidence than your own experience and anecdote. moreover, you're begging the question that there are such things as solid, unquestionable "gay" and "straight" identities that everybody subscribes to, which doesn't really account for people who don't see themselves fitting into any one box. P-Foster Talk " a cheetos-eating, Mountain-Dew drinking vlogger living in someone's basement. " 02:10, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't think everyone who is homophobic is necessarily 100% gay, a Kinsey 6. But I doubt that devoted homophobes are Kinsey 0's either. Whether they are completely gay or just significantly bisexual, I'm sure they are higher up the Kinsey scale than the average non-homophobe is. If they have homophobic views but don't think much about it, maybe not, but when they devote so much of their time and energies to homophobia, I'm sure they have at least some same-sex attraction. Sarah Parker (talk) 02:20, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Well shit a Kinsey zero is really really rare. To say that the mean Kinsey score of homophobes is higher than the mean Kinsey score of non-homophobes is one thing, but what you are arguing when you say that all homophobia comes from closeted gayness is that there aren't any Kinsey 1's, 2's and 3's who are homophobic. --Opcn (with regards to regarding my regardliness) 02:26, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Um....when you say "a Kinsey zero is really really rare"...do you mean a Kinsey zero homophobe? Because otherwise I might take issue with that assertion. -- Seth Peck (talk) 17:26, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
 * It's not just closeted gays who can be homophobic, closeted bisexuals too, who adopt homophobia in trying to deal with their bisexual feelings they don't want to acknowledge. I'm not saying there are no homophobes who are Kinsey 1s, I'm saying that they are homophobes because they can't be honest with themselves about the fact they have same-sex feelings, even if their own feelings are predominantly heterosexual. And if they learnt to accept their own same-sex feelings as valid, they'd stop being homophobic. Sarah Parker (talk) 02:32, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Sounds like wishful thinking, not a serious hypothesis. Look, it's not hard to imagine that, when a religious text tells you that God says homosexuality is bad, you come to believe that it is bad, worthy of hatred even.  I don't see why we should pretend that all such hatred is caused by the anguish of hypocrisy. Phiwum (talk) 02:39, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
 * The same religious text tells them that eating pork or shellfish or a rare steak or a cheeseburger, or wearing clothing made from mixed fabrics, or working on Saturday, is a grave sin, yet they don't get so flustered about any of those sins - hey, I betcha they practice them even. Their homophobia cannot be explained by a religious text. The reality is, it doesn't matter what some ancient text says, because everyone starts out by deciding what they believe, then they twist and selectively quote their chosen religious text until it says what they want it to say. The belief/feeling comes first, the text comes second - you have it all back to front. Sarah Parker (talk) 12:35, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

 * (ECx3)If you go by the Kinsey scale everyone is either bisexual or a liar. If that is the case then saying that homophobes are gay and bisexual is pretty meaningless. If you go by the common sense definition where 90% of the populace is straight, and more than 10% of the population is homophobic, then you start to run out of gay people to have hate themselves. The line that "they don't hate you they hate themselves" is really an outgrowth of the self esteem movement more than a probing neurological examination of hatred. Lots of things entered the common knowledge pool in the 70's through the modern day because they would be convenient rather than because they are always true. No doubt some people do express self hatred as hatred of others, but not everyone. --Opcn (with regards to regarding my regardliness) 02:51, 21 January 2012 (UT::C)
 * Sarah, I assure you, there is no evidence that homophobes are gay. some certainly are, but an equal number are just pure straights who hate gays the way whites hated blacks or currently hate "mexicans" and a-rabs.  Hate is about what you learn.  It's about feeling better than others.  It's about being the big man.  the bully.  It's about being able to be more than you are, casue someone else is less than you are.  it comes in all shapes and colors.

And it's from his new friend RachelW: "And as I also said before, it is not any of your business if these children are committing a sin by following their natural sexual orientation, that is a matter between them and God. I suspect that He will forgive them, as he forgives so much of us. You, on the other hand, will receive no special treatment from Jesus if the person you drive to suicide happens to be gay, it'll still be a black, festering wound on your soul, far uglier and more vile than anything being gay is responsible for.

 * The type of judgement that Christians are not supposed to do is to judge others as morally bad and therefore worthy of condemnation as people. Judgement of the morality of actions is something that Christans are supposed to do (judgement is required to distinguish virtue from vice, for instance). To apply this distinction, a person's sexual inclination is not inherently anyone else's business, but sexual practices are fair game for criticism. Likewise, Conservative's treatment of others is fine to criticize, but making proclamations of the state of his soul is presumptuous. So while a reasonable observer can conclude that Conservative is an unrepentant asshole, good Christians are still supposed to be nice to him. 184.61.193.172 (talk) 01:52, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Oh? Let's Check Matthew 7, the source of the "judge not" bit. Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye. So Christians should not be hypocritical in judgement. That's easy enough with specific actions supposed to be sinful, but most Christians believe that everyone is sinful and worthy of condemnation on their own merits (yay Jesus, etc.). So a Christian shouldn't be saying that someone else is a bad person and therefore should be condemned, since the accuser is imperfect as well. Now let's look at the next verse: Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces. So while Christians aren't supposed to go around condemning people there are practical difficulties to be had when dealing with people who regularly do bad things. Kind of fits with what Paul was saying there about how keeping assholes around could mess up the fledgling Christian community in Corinth, doesn't it? 184.61.193.172 (talk) 09:22, 22 January 2012 (UTC) P.S.

Thoughts
You know, I have a feeling that Ken is acting like such a prize douche purely because he knows how we'll react, and in what passes for his mind, this counts as a win. The fact that he's doing to play the audience makes him an even more pathetic individual, than if he was writing his crap out of any form of belief - we already know he doesn't have the brainpower to form original thoughts and therefore beliefs.

Now, I know we've suggested this before, but can we for once and for all, just ignore this sad, sick, little excuse for a human. Maybe then he'll go away... or at least in search of another audience. --<font face="Wild Words"> PsyGremlin  07:59, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Of more interest is Andy's toleration of Ken's in(s)anity. Scream!! (talk) 09:32, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure making any sort of formalized attempt to ignore Ken would have that much of an effect. Let's pretend and say this site instantly started to ignore him. He'd just up his brand of crazy (I know, seems impossible) until he shook one of our ranks loose, and forced a response. And we all know somebody would eventually rise to his taunts. Which he would then interpret as a victory. No, I think we should let individual RW editors mock or ignore him as they see fit.

 * Heh, I've heard people say bollocks on kid's shows in the USA. It's just a funny thing British people say to them. But at least they don't generally confuse it with small cattle. -- 21:18, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
 * In the UK, a bullock is a bull that's lost its bollocks. CS Miller (talk) 22:38, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Yahbutt CP discourages British English, so bollocks has been Americanized to bullocks to get the sense of the idiom. nobsEmpty Recycle Bin 21:32, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

Nobs, read this graph closely (upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/36/Income_Taxes_By_Country.svg). There is little correlation. Japan has a slightly higher corporate tax rate, yet a much higher life expectency. On the other hand, Canada has a higher personal tax rate, but a lower corporate tax rate, yet it too has higher life expectancy. Not even a correlation, let alone causation. Mr. Anon (talk) 23:40, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Unrelated to the wild flailing here, but I took a look at Rob's burst of activity over on CP (articles on Newt and Hillary, and the talk paGes), and I hadn't even realized how much I missed Rob's crazy "discussion" antics. Keep it up, Rob! =D --Sid (talk) 00:47, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

 * I don't even have Skipcaptcha rights. It's a pain to include a link, let alone revert and edit war over that link; yet two blocking editors have conceded the points on Hillary & open marriage, as well as the negative material on Gingrich. I was amazed a blocking editor argued for consensus; that's the quick way to lose enhanced rights. nobsModerated 01:42, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

 * But that's not the issue, Sharon, babe. The issue is, when has it ever been known (other than dealing with me as an Admin) winning an argument with someone higher on the totem pole in CP? I've proven it can be done. Just follow Toynbee's faculty of mimesis now. nobsModerated 02:07, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Actually, Rob dearest, I have gotten concessions from Conservative and EdPoor. Conservative promised no more fat jokes on talk pages (not much, but at least it was something), and Ed has admitted I was right about several things. Small victories, but real ones, unlike yours tonight. --SharonW (talk) 02:16, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Way to pick your allies Rob. In the last week Hurlbut's been on MPR ranting about how the UN is going to destroy morals/the family/the American dream/whatever is the vogue wingnut buzzword this week, and you want to use one of their organisations to try and cobble together some positive fluff on a page about your preferred candidate. It was funny enough watching you get spanked by Ken, watching Hurlbut and a bunch of parodists run a prison train on you is worthy of popcorn. -- 08:06, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

Oh, and Rob, you got completely steamrolled by RachelW on the Hillary Clinton talk page. She got banned for a day so you could have time to lick your wounds, not because she was trolling.Tesformes (talk) 02:46, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

 * So what you're saying is "Gingrich Affairs = Good" "Clinton Affairs = Bad". Does that sound about right?--Thunderstruck (talk) 02:57, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh, and Newt Gingrich's mother died in 2003, and his adoptive father, who cared for him since he was 3, died in 1996. His biological father died in 1970. Since UNICEF defines an orphan as a child who has lost at least one parent, and Newt first lost a parent at the age of 27, he doesn't count. And again, it is completely irrelevant. And what the fuck are you talking about, seduced by a pedophile teacher, "forced" into marriage? Do you have a citation or did a book get published during Newt's childhood that you want to blame?

Rob and Kiwiland
Rob's had this anti-NZ thing going for a bit. Is it just piss-taking or does he really believe that NZ is some sort of third-world backwater? He does realise that it's one of the most advanced nations on earth by almost any measure, right? Or is he the real American stereotype of really not knowing anything outside the good ol' US of A and if it ain't American it must be bad? Ajkgordon (talk) 13:20, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Most Americans think NZ is so far out of the way, it was founded as a leper colony for rejects and social outcasts from the British penal colony Australia.

 * American football is obviously a more highly evolved variation of rugby. It incorporates the forward pass as pioneered by wp:Curly Lambeau. The pads are because, umm, well the game is much more hard hitting than Rugby, and only to protect themselves. A rugby player couldn't endure 5 minutes without pads in American football.

Or hey, maybe he really thinks that "liberals" is really justification for writing anything. I just doubt that any real CP-bot would ever come out and say it.Tesformes (talk) 04:18, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * From now on "because liberals" is going to be my go-to non-response to any questions asked. Turpis 3:16 (talk) 06:19, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * It gets better. ScottDG uses the same answer for this section, and Andy follows it up with a reply of his own that begins with "Also"... he is completely oblivious to the fact that ScottDG is taking the piss. ONE / TALK 09:22, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Please, if Conservapedia has told us anything it's that it most certainly doesn't "get better", unless you embrace Christianity. Please get your facts straight. Turpis 3:16 (talk) 13:53, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

We have always been at war with Eurasia...
Rob calls the waaambulance. Andy is happy to comply.

According to the trusworthy encyclopaedia, Newt is now sparkly clean... until he loses the election of course. --<font face="Wild Words"> PsyGremlin  06:26, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Technically, it was this request that Andy was responding to there. The second was Rob's request to change it to a 'compromise' version, i.e. his favoured one, which Andy then complied with also. I can see that there's at least the one typo in the protected version as well... Peter Monomorium antarcticum 06:40, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Was it Al Green or Marvin Gaye who was shot by his father in a fight over a woman? Which did 'Let's Stay Together? I always get them mixed up. nobsModerated 06:47, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Check the Trusworthy encyclopedia, isn't that what general purpose reference media is for? I'll do it for you: it was cp:Marvin Gaye. Al Green is still alive and performing Let's Stay Together. Turpis 3:16 (talk) 06:50, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Ooww thanks. Think it's just a coincidink Obama signs Let's Stay Together the same day CNN does a hit job on Newt's marriage? Is there a ready market for misinformation out there? nobsModerated 06:55, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Pretty sure he sang the song as a tribute to Al Green (who really doesn't have all that many other big hits), but I know a conspiracy theory as much more to your liking. FYI: Sam Cooke was shot to death by a hotel manager. A fact conspicuously absent from his Conservapedia's article. Perhaps that would be gossip on Andy's mind? Turpis 3:16 (talk) 06:58, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * My God. Mama Cass choked to death on a ham sandwich and Jim Morrison died in a shamanistic trance after his habit of not using a chaser with hard liquor. The things you learn hagning out in these places.... nobsModerated 07:04, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Mama Cass died NEXT to a ham sandwich that didn't have any bites taken out of it. -- Seth Peck (talk) 18:51, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

Is it just me or is Rob making even less sense than before? Vulpius (talk) 07:45, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Possibly, but perhaps you just forgot how Rob always was - it has been quite a while after all. DamoHi 08:36, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * No, something has changed with Rob. On a related note I have never seen so many statements shown to be wrong in so few exchanges. Never let the fear of being wrong blunt your irrepressible wrong-headedness Rob; else how would someone be goaded to try and change CP for the better? Tielec01 (talk) 08:50, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah you've changed, Rob. You used to be cool. ONE / TALK 09:47, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * What? When? -- 10:25, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * For the 3 seconds when he grew a backbone and thought CP was worth saving. --<font face="Wild Words"> PsyGremlin  10:46, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Maybe I've just forgotten what an asshole Rob is, but his hypocrisy is on wide display lately. He can't really believe that his edits are fair and truthful, can he?  Is he that self-deluded, or is he happy to be a scumbag? Phiwum (talk) 13:08, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Ah, it's the old Rob again - making up conspiracy theories and ignoring reality:
 * Rob: CNN got their hands on sealed records!
 * Sane user: They weren't sealed. Here's the facts
 * Rob: No, CNN obtained sealed files. They were tampered with and stolen!
 * Sane user: No Rob, here's more facts.
 * I see Rob has also forgotten how to use preview and minor edit. Clearly he's decided to be more like Ken, especially in the stupidity stakes. --<font face="Wild Words"> PsyGremlin  13:31, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * He also says on Andy's talk page that publicizing the contents of documents that were never sealed nonetheless "sounds illegal to me". Right.  Phiwum (talk) 13:37, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Obviously he wants his old spot back; and considering how succesful ken is at being the real leader of CP; acting like him is robs best bet. --il&#39;Dictator Mikal (talk) 14:39, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

ScotDG
I know that he and James are playing by the Bugler handbook, but at least Bugler had flair. These two are just boring "mimick Andy-block users" cut-outs. --<font face="Wild Words"> PsyGremlin  16:14, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh for the good old days of creative parody. 16:27, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * As it slowly evolves into Kenservapedia, who needs parodists? It's like Tom Lehrer saying that "satire became obsolete when Henry Kissinger won the Nobel Peace Prize." MDB (talk) 16:50, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes the current crop of parodists is rather lame. But James' repeated invocations of "Because liberals" I found sort of humorous. --Inquisitor (talk) 20:19, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Look, he's even helping Ken communicate with us gentlemen. --Tabrcg23 (talk) 00:40, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah, stellar use of apostrophes there, Ken Doll. It's definitely RW that is made of underachievers, right?  GayGator (talk) 02:21, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

Ken makes a hat trick!
1. Completely missing the point. 2. Only partial use of information. 3. Stereotyping the livng crap out of another country. It's all there!

You know what Germany also has?
 * 1) A constitutional social democracy
 * 2) High rates of atheists and non-Christians (with the same work ethic as everybody else!)
 * 3) Very high rates of Muslim immigrants
 * 4) A populace of which more than half believe that socialism is pretty fucking good idea
 * 5) An education system in which homeschooling is illegal and private schools are uncommon
 * 6) Civil Unions
 * 7) "Liberal Chruches"
 * 8) Prostitution is legal

So, yeah, fuck you Kenny Boy. God, I feel violated every time this guy talks about Germany… -- 13:27, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Good to see the Trusworthy Encyclopaedia using Blogspot as reliable sources. Viva the best of the public! Hey... wpouldn't the Occupy Movement be the best of the public too? --<font face="Wild Words"> PsyGremlin  13:33, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * He's surprisingly generous to Germany given the number of his own asses he's had handed to him by AugustO lately.--Brendiggg (talk) 13:47, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * THAT didn't last very long, eh Psy? P-Foster Talk " Watched Mad Men thinking it was supposed to be a sit-com. Found it disappointing. " 13:52, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Um, either you used the wrong link, or you're going to have to explain that to me. Pictures may be involved. --<font face="Wild Words"> PsyGremlin  14:05, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * It should be a link to 5.1 above. Where you said "Now, I know we've suggested this before, but can we for once and for all, just ignore this sad, sick, little excuse for a human. Maybe then he'll go away... or at least in search of another audience," not 12 hours ago. P-Foster Talk " Watched Mad Men thinking it was supposed to be a sit-com. Found it disappointing.

 * I panicked in the face of peer pressure. --<font face="Wild Words"> PsyGremlin  14:11, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Hat trick? Nothin'. If Ken manages to make a statement without 7 or 8 things wrong with it it's a sure sign of improvement. Turpis 3:16 (talk) 14:34, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * yawn. 1. Germany is traditionally half Catholic, half Protestant. 2. Ken is saying nothing about Christianity overall, only about Protestantism which is most widely spread in nations with welfare states (within Europe). 3. The effects of such a welfare state should be visible in unemployment rates if high taxes (which acompany welfare states) actually cause high unemployment. In Germany they doesn't, neither do they in Sweden, Norway, the Netherlands, Finland nor Iceland (not sure about the UK, though). All "Protestant countries" and today highly secular nations. 4. What Ken actually means is the Prussian heritage played up as the "Deutschtum", that is of course influenced by Protestantism (you know they one of the "liberal Church" kind, as evangelism is and always has been quite minor here). It's a mixture of punctuality, hard work and not speaking up when people tell you to do something (ended well). 5. Underachiever: I come from a working family with low education, no money and not living in a rich area (tourist boom was over shortly after I was born) — today I'm a college student after working my way up thourgh the German education system mainly by my own. I'm the first one in my fathers family to ever do that, and the third one in my mothers family to go to a university, my "Christian" — you know, the liberal kind — uncle holds a math and sports degree and is principal of a school, my aunt holds a doctor degree in biochemistry and teaches at a specialized school. -- 00:55, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
 * On the UK.... The UK is predominately Anglican (at least culturally) rather than protestant. But it's also largely secular. We also have a highly developed welfare state much like the countries you listed above. The unemployment rate is high-ish at the moment but not traditionally so. It is also somewhat difficult to compare to many other EU countries' rates as the employment market is generally more fluid. Ajkgordon (talk) 10:51, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
 * It wasn't really that I didn't know, I just wasn't sure if Protestant or "welfare state" fit for the UK. -- 13:09, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Sure. It depends whether you classify Anglicanism as protestant or via media. But why wouldn't the UK be an example of a country with a highly developed welfare state? Ajkgordon (talk) 13:29, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
 * via media is a cool phrase. Have to write that one down. Note that Anglicanism dominates in several places outside the UK by the way. 82.69.171.94 (talk) 15:19, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, the CofE was much more evangelical and missionary in the 16C to 18C than it is today. Ajkgordon (talk) 16:34, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Vox also loves that atheist Malcolm Gladwell --Opcn (with regards to regarding my regardliness) 09:28, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Is that a white flag I see there, Ken? -- 13:09, 24 January 2012 (UTC)


 * I wonder how he explains Japan's economic record. No protestants, no Jesus. Ajkgordon (talk) 12:50, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I guess he'd plead some of his "global Christianity is growing" bullshit, even that would be wrong as Japan already was a big power at the beginning of the 20th century, a time when Shintoism was the state "religion". -- 13:09, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
 * He'll no doubt claim the several Christian Prime Ministers were single-handedly responsible for Japan's post-war economic miracle. Ajkgordon (talk) 13:45, 24 January 2012 (UTC)


 * I love the fact that he is basically saying that the Catholics of Southern Europe are all useless. On a website owned by Schlafly!

A challenge for Kendoll
Since you think all we atheists are unlettered, and you're such a widely read guy, you won't mind answering a question about Outliers, will you? After all, you wouldn't want us to think this is just a random factoid you'd read on one of your motivational sites.

Perhaps you wouldn't mind telling us who the researcher who is mentioned in the "footnoted material" is, who he worked with, when and at what institution. If you've got the book, that's all right there for you. I await your answer. -- 04:22, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
 * An excellent challenge. How much are you charging Kendoll for participation? ONE / TALK 12:36, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
