Note that extrapolating 100 generations into the future is implausible view that may be the result of a belief in an Old Earth. In fact, there's no logical reason to expect more than a few generation

::::::::Good points, Denny. I think we would expect conservative insights to eventually decline in the same fashion that we see conservative insights added to Conservapedia decline. After a certain amount of time, it just can't keep up the pace because the core articles/principles are already here and can't become any more conservative. Whether or not it is [[liberal creep]] and/or other factors that limits the growth of conservatism, I don't know. What do you think your "graph of conservatism" would look like? It'd be fun to compare. Do you think true conservatism could be the harbinger of the return of Christ? [[User:BradB|BradB]] 19:17, 24 March 2011 (EDT)

:::::::::If we accept that at the time of Adam (pre Fall) conservatism was infinite, then even with the observed geometric expansion of conservatism observed and described as ''Conservapedia's law'', it is not possible for conservatism to reach that level again. This ties nicely in with the teaching of the Bible, that the Creation was perfect and sin-free initially, but due to the Fall such a level of perfection/conservatism cannot be reattained.

::::::::::Very well put, Mike.  Note that extrapolating 100 generations into the future is implausible view that may be the result of a belief in an Old Earth.  In fact, there's no logical reason to expect more than a few generations into the future.  See, e.g., [[Counterexamples to an Old Earth]].--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 20:13, 24 March 2011 (EDT)
