This Conservapedia-related article is of largely historical interest and is no longer the focus of RationalWiki today. Conservapedia (and religious fundamentalism to an extent) was a major focal point in the early history of RationalWiki, but long ago ceased coming up with new ways to appall and amuse. Our energies are now spent debunking other, fresher examples of pseudoscientific claims, authoritarianism, and deceit. For RationalWiki's less ancient content, try the Best of RationalWiki. |

The Conservative Dictionary Project is yet another attempt to reinvent reality a project by various Conservapedian editors that, according to Conservapedia, is designed to counter what they perceive to be "liberal redefinitions"[1] and "secularized language[2] (which is bad, BTW) that they are convinced that liberals seek to corrupt the English language with.[3] First the Conservative Bible Project, and now a Conservative dictionary project? Wow, reality must be really liberally biased indeed.
Why Conservapedia thinks it's necessary[edit]
Conservapedia argues that a conservative-biased version of the actual dictionary is needed for the following (imagined) reasons:
- "Liberal redefinition": In other words, any definition that Conservapedians don't like, e.g. the definitions for themselves; here is their
narcissismdefinition of themselves:
“”Date: 2006
Conservapedia: True conservative meaning- The Trustworthy Encyclopedia. False liberal redefinition- an American conservative Christian-biased encyclopedia.[4] |
- "Secularized Language": that is, any language that Conservapedia deems as pursuing some "anti-Christian" and "anti-American" agenda by appealing to tolerance and political correctness.[5]
