Hi Jpatt:

My former account on Conservapedia was named r136a1. The reason you provided for blocking this account is user name policy: please consider recreating your account with a real first name and last initial. Could you please tell me where this policy can be found on Conservapedia? And also, just to clarify, I realize it is not a real name, but it is not a random string of letters and numbers; it is the name of the most luminous star. By the way, your page says that you block liberal fascists; but, and correct me if I'm wrong, I believe that most agree that fascists are extremely right wing, but liberals are left wing.

It wasn't done in namecalling. It has been stated by several members, including Andy, that any Republican supporting SOPA/PIPA is a liberal/rino no matter their record and stances. I questioned it but it was insisted. So I added what I did to Rubio since he was a sponsor. I don't consider Rubio liberal but I don't consider Lamar Smith liberal either.

Yes it is name calling. It was name calling when they did it to Lamar Smith and it was name calling when you did it right back to Rubio.

: "all men are endowed by their Creator," In other words, the same era of people that wrote the Constitution, ratified the Declaration of Independence. I will not remove Judeo-Christian principles from the United States of America page. The Founders put us on the Gregorian calender. This means the Judeo-Christian.--[[User:Jpatt|Jpatt]] 11:04, 8 March 2012 (EST)
 
−
 
−
::That is the Declaration of Independence, which is not law, it is a deist reference, and to cite Jefferson for Judeo-Christian values is moot (at least) as he created his own Bible where he cut the New Testament to present Jesus as good moral teacher who died. The Gregorian calender was the prevailing calender at the time, and creating a new calender would have been folly. Again, please show me exclusively Judeo-Christian principles in the US Constitution.  [[Rdsmith]] 11:35 (EST), 8 March 2012

:::Why create a new calender when the Farsi and Chinese calenders already existed? Again, please stop trying to split hairs on the subject between secular and religion. We were not founded as a theocracy and we were not founded as a Godless nation either. The overblown "Jefferson was not religious" lovefest has been debunked already. Your "moot" point that nobody talks about is that Jefferson founded the American Bible Society and paid for the importation of 20000 Bibles. Look at the opening preambles of the 50 state constitutions and their references to God. [http://www.christianindex.org/617.article]. --[[User:Jpatt|Jpatt]] 12:06, 8 March 2012 (EST)
 
−
::::I understand that this story has been circulating for many years in many forms but none of this is true. Jefferson did not found the American Bible Society. Neither he nor Congress paid for 20,000 Bibles to be imported. The 20,000 number comes from a proposed resolution in Congress to import Bibles because there were no printers in the US during the revolutionary war and we were obviously embargoed from importing Bibles during the war. After the war there was a real shortage. Jefferson really wasn't Christian in any sense: he may have believed in his own idea of God but he absolutely didn't accept the divinity of Jesus Christ, his resurrection, the triune person of Christ, etc. These beliefs are central to Christianity as far as I am aware. I may be wrong about whether evangelicals accept the various personages of Christ. Jefferson accepted none of them. I understand the desire of Christian men to associate important figures with their faiths but we wouldn't do this with a villain or a blasphemer and we oughtn't do it with a man who didn't adore Jesus Christ as his lord and savior but only as some random guy who lived in Palestine a long time ago.

::::The people living in the colonies were primarily accustomed to a European (therefore Christ-based) calender so using the Farsi or Chinese calenders would be of equal folly. I'm talking about the government of the United States and since the Articles of Confederation has been godless, as for America the nation, I'll agree it is has a strong Christian heritage (then again to question Christianity openly has been taboo until contemporary times).The "godliness" of the constitutions of the colonies range from freedom to religion to religious requirements for office (the latter being specifically opposed by the Constitution in Article VI). You can fixate on preambles all you want, all they state is ends, while I'm look at means, but I looked at the preambles of the constitutions of the states when America was founded, not very Judeo-Christian to me.

::::So, for a third time, in the context of " the United States Constitution was written; grounded on republican political principles and Judeo-Christian values," show me the specific Judeo-Christian values in the Articles of Confederation or the Constitution. If not, then I can show you the Enlightenment principles the government of this country was founded upon. The Declaration of Independence was based on Locke, but even Locke uses the term "God" as opposed to more deistic references of the Dec. -- [[Rdsmith]] 11:42 (EST) 9 March 2012

== Suggestions ==

−
Thank you so much for your great work and for the welcome message.
 
−
I am so encouraged to see this truly excellent encyclopedia representing what wikipedia could have been with some serious intellectual honesty.
 
−
 
−
A few suggestions:
 
−
1) Human Life International has a new president and is undergoing some great improvements in their ministry, including updating  articles and resources.  Perhaps they could be added to your top pro-life websites.
 
−
2) lovefacts.org is a veritable gold-mine of good medical references documenting the harms of induced abortion and contraception, which we need mine to improve many articles on the subject.
 
−
3) pop.org is the Population Research Institutes homepage; it is a pro-life alternative to PP's Guttmacher Institute, and they expose the myth of overpopulation and the numerous human rights abuses throughout the world in the name of "population control."  Perhaps "overpopulation myth" or something similar would be a good page to refute these widespread errors driving the culture of death and its devotion to abortion and contraception.

I look forward to contributing in a forum where my input is appreciated and allowed to benefit the souls of all who may read the articles.

Thank you for removing the link to the It Gets Worse page, from a notoriously racist and anti-Semitic "Southern Conservative" website which blames the Jews for Communism, feminism, Facebook, and Psychoanalysis. I hate anti-Semitism, and I know Conservapedia doesn't endorse it either. I know it was a mistake that you posted the link first, but I looked at the website (Jett and Jahn media), and I was disgusted at the anti-Semitism and racism they espouse. They even have downloadable games which show the Ku Klux Klan as good guys! These guys give conservatism a bad name, and they are thankfully nobodies in the conservative movement.

:Our party recently had famous Austrian-born actor [[Arnold Schwarzenegger]] as California Governor. State governors can be foreign-born, and our party whether we like it or not has selected a foreign-born man to run for governor. The birth issue as you've said is un-confirmable and isn't it '''''more important''''' that Obama is ruining our country with his high tax goals and taking away individual rights on health care? Why not put the unconfirmed birth issue in the main body of the article - it's not like all conservatives agree with the birthers, conservative writer [[Ann Coulter]] doesn't agree with the birthers - see here from Fox News: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pIRaWMwX68A] - the person who posted the video seems to be a birther because they are anti-Coulter, but she is a well-known conservative writer and she completely rejects the birther argument.

J-the edits I made removed fluff and apologies, and removed duplicate material to make a stronger argument.  I would really like to see where you think I softened the criticism: what specific passages do you object to? [[User:MattyD|MattyD]] 12:59, 16 September 2012 (EDT)

::I actually heard about both this site and another from a middle-ideology news site that promoted you as "conservative kooks" and the other website (can't remember the name, started with an R, I think) as "liberal morons." I checked them both out, found I agreed with you guys on many theological points and with the other guys on a lot of scientific ones. Got kicked off of their site for being too religious and noting how they treated Christianity unfairly, so I decided to see how tolerant you are over here. So far, looks promising. :) [[User:JGrant|JGrant]] 07:49, 3 October 2012 (EDT)

::Also (sorry for double-post), would it be alright for me to note Revelations 20:13 on the [[Salvation]] page? I note that it makes no mention of it, despite the verse pretty clearly referring to the possibility of salvation through works at the End of Days.

Greetings.  You may recall, from our email communication a while back, that there was an activity that we both agreed would be unethical, and that I said that I was fairly sure I had never done it.  Looking over everything carefully, I see that I did do it one one occasion.  I'm not going to call attention to it.  I'm sorry, and I won't do it again.

I see that you re-added the external link to Bert's blog.  I personally do not think that the blog is among the top external sources available to CP readers.  But if you disagree, I certainly won't get into an edit war with you over it.  In general, I feel that CP editors should not link to their own blogs, because this is typically a disservice to our readers and hurts CP's reputation.

==A serious Biblical matter==
 
−
 
−
Aschlafly wrote the essay [[Mystery:Did Jesus Write the Epistle to the Hebrews?]]. This wouldn't have been to problematic, but now he puts his outlandish idea into an article in the main space ([[Epistle to the Hebrews]]). First he wrote:
 
−
{{cquote|"The [[Epistle to the Hebrews]] is the nineteenth book of the [[New Testament]], and one of the greatest mysteries in all of intellectual history: the authorship of this brilliant work is unknown, and '''the most plausible theory is that Jesus himself wrote or dictated it.'''"}}
 
−
[[User:Iduan]] toned this down somewhat, so that we read at the moment:
 
−
{{cquote|"The [[Epistle to the Hebrews]] is the nineteenth book of the [[New Testament]], and one of the greatest mysteries in all of intellectual history: the authorship of this brilliant work is unknown, and '''one plausible theory is that Jesus himself wrote or dictated it'''."}}
 
−
 
−
I couldn't find any Biblical scholar who shares this idea, I couldn't find any authorative figure who promotes this - and this isn't much of a surprise if you read the epistle for yourself!  The only "scholar" who has proposed this "theory" in the last 2000 years is Andrew Schlafly.
 
−
 
−
I tried to delete this sentence, and then I tried to make it clear that this idea is a personal insight by Andrew Schlafly. My edits were reverted:  any reader of this encyclopedia gets the impression that this theory is something commonly known or well discussed. That's utterly untrue.
 
−
 
−
I tend to be quite strict on Biblical matters - I'm often accused of being nitpicky.  As one of the sysops of Conservapedia who was active in 2012 I ask you to weigh in on this problem: maybe it is just me and most of the of you and your fellow sysops think that it is acceptable to present an  insight of a single person '''in a Biblical matter''' (an insight shared by virtually no one)  as a plausible theory. But - as the title of this section indicates - for me this is a very serious matter.

Hi :)

Just wanted to ask, is there a rule against putting the "citation needed" tag on this website? I noticed that I few of my edits where I added it have been rolled back. Is there a rule regarding citation needed that I'm not aware of? Please let me know, as I only wish to be a positive influence on the site.

The polls varied between 10% and 18%, so "1 in 5" is not an accurate summary.  If you don't like my revision, we can go back to my first phrasing of the sentence, but I think this last one is better. Thanks, [[User:Wschact|Wschact]] 23:08, 4 January 2013 (EST)

Obama's Religion

The polls varied between 10% and 18%, so "1 in 5" is not an accurate summary. If you don't like my revision, we can go back to my first phrasing of the sentence, but I think this last one is better. Thanks, Wschact 23:08, 4 January 2013 (EST)

It is accurate (as nearly 20% is 1 in 5) [5] [6] and I oppose the insertion of rumor. We don't have his baptism records and Obama can't be trusted with what he says. It's not a rumor, it's not fact, it is an unknown assumption. Replacing a sentence somebody just added reeks of edit war incivility. --Jpatt 23:18, 4 January 2013 (EST)
