Hey all,
On October 7th, 2009, Stephen Colbert presented a story about the website conservapedia.com which is a conservative version of wikipedia. Apparently, wikipedia is liberal, anti-christian, and anti-American. However, I don't see it. Well, they also think that the bible is too liberal and have set about changing it to coincide with conservative values. This is a fairly simple process. They remove the liberal parts. However, this has lead to criticism (of course) even from conservatives. Well, Dr. Stephen T. Colbert D.F.A. discussed this topic on his show and told his fans that he wished to be included in the bible as an historical figure. His fans promptly replied and did just that. However, the overflow from the fans crashed the site for an extended period of time which was considered mass vandalism by conservapedia.com. However, as a fairly liberal person, I love this site and love the Colbert Report, yet I am disheartened by a group which would go to such extremes to present their views. As a side note, I recommend that, if you go to the site, read about Stephen Colbert. It's a hoot.
