The [[bestiality]] article contains, in the first section, this big quote, with a footnote reference to the "newsreport3738" web site.  (By the way, the Conservapedia article says that the quote is about "secular Europe", whereas the actual quote says nothing about being secular.)

The web reference is out there for all to see.  When you go to that site, you have to make one more click to get to the actual quote.  I won't repeat The URL of the web page on which that quote is found, other than to say that it has the a*****-f****** phrase, but the full quote on that page has a little extra something in front, in a large boldface font.

For a few days, the web reference was out there for all to see.  When you went to that site, you had to make one more click to get to the actual quote.  I won't repeat The URL of the web page on which that quote was found (it's since been taken down), other than to say that it has the animal-f***ers phrase, but the full quote on that page had a little extra something in front, in a large boldface font.

The quote goes on well beyond that first paragraph, and has a video of a person detailing his tastes in bestiality.  The whole thing is utterly disgusting and obscene.  And yet it is here at Conservapedia.  The third of the [[Conservapedia:Commandments]] says that everything, including links, must be "... family-friendly, clean, concise, and without gossip or foul language".

Can someone clean this place up?  I'm trying to get students of high school age to read my stuff, and I'm sure a lot of other people are as well.  [[User:SamHB|SamHB]] ([[User talk:SamHB|talk]]) 21:21, 13 May 2016 (EDT)

::::Yes, indeed!  The reference on the bestiality page was subsequently changed to point to a Conservapedia administrator's blog, to which the text was copied, but without the '''Animal F***ers''' phrase.  And the whole thing (minus that phrase) was a quote of something in the "vice news" website, the name of which says it all.  [[User:SamHB|SamHB]] ([[User talk:SamHB|talk]]) 20:14, 15 May 2016 (EDT)

JamieVa, I changed my mind about responding to critics. Not a big deal.

Second, I notice you did not respond to the issue that LifeSiteNews.com, one of Andy's favorite websites, has an article on the bestiality problem that recently occurred in Sweden and this was material was quoted at Consrvapedia. Was I wrong in doing this?  The Bible mentions bestiality several times. Is LifeSiteNews.com and the Bible family unfriendly? I don't think so!

::::Yes, the Bible mentions bestiality, and LifeSiteNews does also.  But neither mentions it under the name '''Animal F***ers'''.  (I did searches of the NIV, ASV, CEB, DRA, ESV, GNT, ISV, KJV, TLB, RSV, and CBP translations.)  The topic of this section is not bestiality ''per se'', or whether Conservapedia should mention it (though I think it shouldn't), but about the appropriateness of having a clean and family-friendly website draw people's attention to the phrase '''Animal F***ers'''.  [[User:SamHB|SamHB]] ([[User talk:SamHB|talk]]) 20:14, 15 May 2016 (EDT)
