I was a liberal atheist.  About two weeks ago, I was talking to a Conservative friend of mine and she pointed me to the site conservapedia.com.  So I came here and read a few articles.  Then read a few more.  Then when I noticed registration was open, I signed up, but didn't contribute right away, but I kept reading.  I read [[Christian apologetics]], [[Counterexamples to Evolution]], [[Counterexamples to an Old Earth]], [[Counterexamples to Relativity]], [[Resources for leaving atheism and becoming a Christian]] and some wonderful essays too numerous to list.  While reading, I felt...something.  Something I haven't felt since I was a child.  Yesterday, Sunday Morning, I did something I haven't done in nearly 30 years:  I went to church.  It was wonderful and I do believe I felt the Holy Spirit.  I don't believe I deserve to call myself a Christian yet, but I'm looking forward to next Sunday. :-) Thank you all.  --[[User:OliviaB|OliviaB]] 13:51, 22 August 2011 (EDT)

== Summer Paper Gone Bad ==
 +
 +
Summer is drawing to a close and school is beginning again. I have decided to write my essay on the origin of the moon, citing Conservapedia several times. When my teacher (this is a public school) gave me my paper back with the grade an all, he gave me a 62. In addition, he gave me a "good talking to" on not using Wikipedia. I tried to explain him that Conservapedia is different, he just wouldn't listen! He gave me the opportunity to do the paper again using different sources. I don't want to use different sources, because they are most often plagued with bias. My question is simple- how do we separate ourselves from Wikipedia to the general public, and how to we improve our reputation? --[[User:WilliamMoran|WilliamMoran]] 17:13, 25 August 2011 (EDT)
