| − | '''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:
| |
| − |
| |

| |
| − | **A Young Earth Creationism viewpoint
| |

| − | **Anti-[[abortion]]
| |

| |

| |
| − | *[[Global warming|Global warming denialism]]
| |

| |
| − | 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]].
