:The third point is look at liberal attacks on God and the Bible. It isn't conservatives doing it. The moral standard that we follow is rooted in the Bible; the moral standard of this country's founding is in the Bible; the majority of the Founding Fathers believed in the God of the Bible, and today's liberals - by tossing out the Bible - pretend that they are better than Washington or Jefferson or Hamilton? By removing Ten Commandments markers from public squares, are liberals saying that their view is better? If so, then go out and kill someone. Rob a bank. Spit on your mother. Rape someone's wife. Break all of the commandments in addition to the lying that you displayed here. Let's see how far you get, because if liberalism is better, then you should be able to get away with murder and stealing and adultery and all the rest.

:Face it, Nonobu, the country has shown through the TEA Parties and the Massachusetts election that they are fed up with the deceit that is liberalism. It is high time that you wake your sorry butt up and see what it really is, because in the end there will be accountability. The God that ''you deny exists'' will make you stand before Him and He will judge you accordingly. You know full well how to change that. The choice is your's.

I used to have a stronger negative opinion of conservatism than I do now. I'm still very definitely a political moderate; I tend to lean more toward conservatism in my own personal life (trying to follow the word of God in everything that I do), but I'm more centrist politically and somewhat liberal economically.
I used to rant against Conservapedia all the time, at first because I didn't really understand the reality of some of the Biblical stuff on the site, and then later on I just refused to accept that anything conservative could be right. Still, even now that I realize that there is a lot of good information on the site, I still think that part of why this website has such a negative public image is because it attacks liberals ''so severely''. The front page is basically a mock-shrine to criticizing Obama. The page on homosexuality mentioned that we need to be loving and forgiving (which is very true), but the pages on liberal economic policies are nothing but judgmental, even though being economically liberal in and of itself (supporting universal health care, welfare programs, being [[politically correct]], etc.) is not a sinful act.
