Here and There...

The first thing I noticed arriving here was that the RationalWiki pays special attention to Conservapedia. Then, I edited an article (here) that mentioned new Conservapedia accounts, to note that you don't necessarily have to send them an email to open an account. Then, I noticed that the account I opened at Conservapedia was blocked a few minutes after I opened it, even though I hadn't actually done anything online there. So, I retracted my edit (here) as unnecessary. Perhaps they simply block new users if they aren't invited even though their software initially allows otherwise. The blocking seems to have been done by someone, unless they don't identify their bots, as it was done after some time delay rather than instantly.

It doesn't really matter anyway. They want their own space to put up whatever drivel they wish to share with like-minded folks. I'm kind of dumb computerwise and made an account because I thought it would allow recording activity there for later reference. It doesn't, probably.

I'm not sure whether Andrew Schlafly is worth all that attention.

Except that the Eagle Forum is very influential in Utah, where it is colored by Mormon doctrine, and religious conservatives have enjoyed success in the USA, particularly in state legislatures if less so in the courts.
