I think we all need to agree that AiG doesn't count as a valid source to cite for Conservapedia. Having read through its site pretty thoroughly, I can say that it's an extremely biased and opinionated organization with little to no actual scientific value.-AmesG 22:45, 20 March 2007 (EDT)

Yes we should use it! And of course it is biased - it has a conservative Christian bias! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Smile (talk)
Andy has yet to admit that the site is biased. He's still pretending it's neutral. Until he does otherwise, we should keep the "dream" alive.-AmesG 23:06, 20 March 2007 (EDT)

Nobody has to "admit" anything. This is a conservative Christian wiki project - it is in the name! Smile 23:30, 20 March 2007 (EDT)

Bull. Look at the Commandments. It's supposed to be neutral and non-opinionated.-AmesG 23:30, 20 March 2007 (EDT)
I'm backing AmesG on this one, AiG is shady and should be avoided as a reference. On their "about us" page they say: "When properly understood, the “evidence” confirms the biblical account." That's a convienent way of saying, if it doesn't agree with the bible then the evidence is wrong and we're right. Jrssr5 11:25, 21 March 2007 (EDT)

What utter rubbish from AmesG and Jrssr5. It presents a worldview that they are ideologically opposed to, so they try and dismiss it with unsubstantiated slander and twisting what they say. Philip J. Rayment 00:11, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

It's also unfounded in science, but that's just picky, educated me.-AmesGyo! 01:13, 1 April 2007 (EDT)
It's also wrong, and intellectual snobbery is unbecoming. Philip J. Rayment 01:17, 1 April 2007 (EDT)
Snobbery is tolerated when one side is clearly correct. Offer me real science. Aaaaaand go.-AmesGyo! 01:18, 1 April 2007 (EDT)
Creation science is real science. Philip J. Rayment 01:38, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

Does AIG want removal of evo material from schools or present both views

Does AIG want removal of evo material from schools or present both views? Is the article correct? There is no citation. Conservative 23:04, 20 March 2007 (EDT)conservative

Only Genesis. No evil-ution. They're that nuts.-AmesG 23:06, 20 March 2007 (EDT)
A citation? Conservative 23:37, 20 March 2007 (EDT)conservative
He can't give one because that is not what they believe. He is criticising them with a straw-man argument of his own invention (although I'll admit that it may not be intentional; he might be so ideologically opposed to them that he actually believes his straw-man argument to be true). Philip J. Rayment 00:11, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

I honestly had no idea and just wanted to pick a fight. Just like how you approach science, Conservative.-AmesGyo! 01:12, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

Thank God for the sourcing rule. Conservative 01:15, 1 April 2007 (EDT)conservative
What "sourcing" rule? All of your edits are unfounded in fact, too - either relentlessly quote mined, taken out of context, or from nonsense organizations like AiG!-AmesGyo! 01:17, 1 April 2007 (EDT)
More vilification of an organisation with a worldview that you oppose. Philip J. Rayment 01:38, 1 April 2007 (EDT)
