I'm a little surprised the page on Bill Maher actually mentions Ann Coulter, although her page has no mention of him.  They used to date (to put it cleanly), before Coulter realized she could make a career of live interpretive stage performance.

  First Example - Liberal-Promoted Falsehood

The earliest, most authentic manuscripts of the Gospel According to Luke lack this verse fragment set forth at the start of Luke 23:34:[11]

    Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing."

Is this a corruption of the original, perhaps promoted by liberals without regard to its authenticity? This does not appear in any other Gospel, and the simple fact is that some of the persecutors of Jesus did know what they were doing. This quotation is a favorite of liberals, although it does not appear in the earliest and best manuscripts of the Gospel of Luke. It should not appear in a conservative Bible, because in point of fact Jesus might never had said it at all.

No words are needed.

Redemption is for Satanists.

What? That's what Jesus preached his whole life? LIBERAL PROPAGANDA!

These guys really love getting worked up over ABSOLUTELY FRICKIN' NOTHING

http://www.conservapedia.com/CE (OMG!  Word has changed slightly!  We're going to die!)
http://www.conservapedia.com/Homosexual_agenda (OMG!  They want to be seen as normal!  We're going to die!)
http://www.conservapedia.com/Feminism (OMG!  They don't like it when we use gender specific terms!  We're going to die!)

Speaking of which, read this:

Bear in mind that this is an ADMIN, and therefore not a troll.

And if you read this entire conversation, I promise you you'll lose all faith in humanity.  This is an apparently quite sensible conservative pointing out a serious error in the most important article on the site, backed up entirely by the law in question, who is banned by an admin for "talk, talk, talk" and "arguing".  And, after several pages of extremely thorough legal analysis from a specialist in federal law and someone going over the exact section with a fine tooth comb, it ends like this.

Seeing as the majority of users in this discussion support changing this, could it be changed? Or, could those who support keeping the current state of the page (notably Andy) provide their legal analysis? Sorry if it seems like I'm too new to suggests this- I've been using Conservapedia for a while, but didn't actually create an account till now.NSchneider 11:54, 11 June 2009 (EDT)

Actually I don't see how that could be anyone but a very committed troll.
What remains of my faith in humanity depends on that being a very committed troll.

I looked at Andy Schlafy's user page and I found this under his "favourite links":
http://www.conservapedia.com/Mystery:Why_Do_Non-Conservatives_Exist%3F

It includes such gems of truthiness as:
Quote
  Statistical Analysis

(Estimates)

        * 20%: did not hear about conservative principles until after they made up their mind and, perhaps due to pervasive societal bias, refuse to reconsider
        * 10%: genuinely lack of desire to find the truth, and instead desire attention, praise by liberal teachers, getting along by going along, and not standing up to liberal bullies
        * 10%: refuse to forgive themselves and let go of their past mistakes and image
        * 10%: believe myths created around government programs like the "New Deal" that liberal policies create jobs instead of destroying them and depriving people of liberty through government control.
        * 10%: fooled by the demonizing of conservatives and mistakenly feel that conservative benefits are available only to those who are from an intact family or privileged background
        * 10%: refuse to rise above their personal temptations, often self-destructive, and hate conservatives who criticize their self-indulgent behavior
        * 10%: feel that they deserve to make more money than they do, as in public school teachers and university professors, and refuse to rise above self-interest
        * 10%: harbor a grudge against a conservative, typically a parent but sometimes an ex-spouse, and refuse to forgive or rise above the animosity
        * 5%: like an anarchist, genuinely want to believe in and propagate destructive ideas
        * 5%: are susceptible to marketing and suggestion to an overlarge degree.

And:

  What Triggers Reconsideration of Liberal Beliefs?

What triggers reconsideration of liberal beliefs? Here are some estimates:

        * 25%: raising or teaching children, and realizing how destructive liberal values are to many of them
        * 15%: a religious conversion followed by taking the Bible to heart
        * 10%: a loss of a loved one that resulted from accepting or promoting liberal values, as in losing a loved one to crime caused by pornography, drug addiction, gambling, etc.
        * 10%: a new friendship with someone who is conservative, and realizing how much good flows from the conservative values[1]
        * 10%: simply by maturing and seeing liberalism's impact around them, and realizing what they were taught as youth was wrong
        * 5%: a desire to learn the truth, and a dislike for those who mislead
        * 5%: a genuine divine experience that can not be explained.
        * 5%: using conservative values to overcome an addiction, and then realizing the benefits of conservative values in many other ways
        * 5%: taking a truthful course in economics, or learning it in the workforce[2]

Yeah.  This is why trolls exist on the website.  The admins label anyone with a legitimate criticism of the article a "troll", thus banning anyone with even slightly moderate views, and let anyone posted retarded shit on there stay around.

As I said, they have as much credibility as they deserve.

  Liberal characteristics

    * Poor abstract thinking:

        * They have trouble understanding some of the slightly abstract concepts in conservatism, such as "more guns, less crime," and "less taxes, more revenue."
        * They are more comfortable discussing simple issues like race and poverty than complex issues like globalism.
        * Intellectual myopia - failure to heed the long-term consequences of ideological positions that seem beneficial in the short term.
        * Stereotyping: They knew a conservative whom they disliked for some reason, and tar all others with the same brush.
        * Ignorance: politics isn't a priority for some people. Without any wish to learn to think for themselves, some liberals don't bother to think through what's right, and just go with what's "cool."

I've just realised something.  Apart from the fact that the figures were obviously pulled out of the writer's ass, they don't even add up to 100%.

Actually, this is something odd I find about those on this site.  They are very strong on "personal freedoms" and so on, but at the same time insist liberals flount authority all the time.  Come on,are we lazy hippies or evil nazi communists?  We can hardly be both...
