The Conservapedia Commandments suffer from a fatal flaw.

#REDIRECT [[The Conservapedia Commandments]]
 
  −
The first commandment is ''"1 -  Everything you post must be true and '''verifiable'''. "''
  −
 
  −
However, as a website dedicated to promoting Christian Values and Christian theology in both an encyclopedia and on the internet as a whole this suffers from a serious logical error.
  −
 
  −
"Verifiable" is defined by Webster's Dictionary as the following:
  −
 
  −
1. capable of being verified; "a verifiable account of the incident"
  −
2. capable of being tested (verified or falsified) by experiment or observation
  −
 
  −
"Verify" is defined by Webster's Dictionary as the following:
  −
 
  −
1. to prove the truth of, as by evidence or testimony; confirm; substantiate: Events verified his prediction.
  −
2. to ascertain the truth or correctness of, as by examination, research, or comparison: to verify a spelling.
  −
3. to act as ultimate proof or evidence of; serve to confirm.
  −
4. Law.
  −
a. to prove or confirm (an allegation).
  −
b. to state to be true, esp. in legal use, formally or upon oath.
  −
 
  −
However, Christianity, the Bible, and the word of God cannot be verified as true. Therefore any Christian related articles on the Website are a violation of the first commandment of Conservapedia.
