'''Schlafly values''' are those values practised and preached by [[Andrew Schlafly]], especially at Conservapedia.
 +
 +
Many of these values ultimately work against the aims and goals of Conservapedia. Some of these values are as follows:
 +
 +
*[[Biblical literalism]], often putting [[Old Testament]] writings ahead of the actual teachings of Jesus
 +
**A Young Earth Creationism viewpoint
 +
**Anti-[[homosexual]]
 +
**Anti-[[abortion]]
 +
**Anti-[[Sex education|sex-education]] in schools
 +
**Pro-[[capital punishment]]
 +
*[[Global warming|Global warming denialism]]
 +
**Anti-environmental controls
 +
*Anti-[[Islam]]
 +
**Pro-[[Israel]]
 +
*Anti-liberal
 +
**Anti-government
 +
**Anti-public school
 +
**Anti-intellectual<ref>http://www.conservapedia.com/Professor_values</ref>
 +
**Anti-universal health care
 +
**Anti-gun control
 +
**Anti-Medicare
 +
**Anti-vaccination<ref>[http://www.kellyramsey.net/index.php/2007/06/22/smallpox-and-vaccination-on-conservapedia/ Smallpox and vaccination on Conservapedia]</ref>
 +
**Pro-baby shaking
 +
**Anti-minimum wage
 +
**Anti-left wing economics
 +
**Pro-neoliberalism and laissez faire
 +
**Pro-homeschooling (religious)
 +
*Anti-[[United Nations]]
 +
**Anti-European
 +
**Anti-Canadian
 +
*Anti-Democratic Party
 +
**Anti-Independent Party
 +
**Anti-Green Party
 +
**Anti-Socialism
 +
*Anti-relativity - both in the moral sense and in terms of physics
 +
 +
 +
Because Schlafly values are harmful to the intellect in the long-term, many organisations have warned of the dangers of relying on Conservapedia for factual information. The Royal Society of Britain has warned the public in relation to Conservapedia:
 +
"People need to be very careful about where they look for scientific information"
 +
 +
Schlafly values are believed to have also played a part in Andrew Schlafly's absurd and time-wasting decision to report users who were suspected of vandalizing Conservapedia to the [[FBI]].
