Though popular Wikipedia has come under harsh criticisms for its [[bias]]. The [[encyclopedia]] is generally very anti-elite, [[liberal]], and anti-[[Christian]]. Examples of its anti-Christian bias include its article on the [[Bible]] where it says "Many people who identify themselves as Christians, [[Muslims]], or [[Jews]] regard the Bible as inspired by [[God]] yet written by a variety of imperfect men over thousands of years"<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bible#Christian_theology]</ref>. This statement is obvisouly biased against those who know that the [[Bible]] is the literal word of [[God]] and is without flaw.
