Was not expecting the abrupt pivot into barely relevant bible study.
It's an internet encyclopedia built for and by conservatives. Literally everything on there abruptly pivots to barely relevant Bible study.
I'm used to UK conservatives. They don't like poor people, I think religion is really a minor issue for most of them though (after all it does generally preach kindness to the poor).
Yeah I suppose I should have prefaced it with American conservatives. Because American conservatism is thoroughly wrapped up in Christian authoritarianism.
In order to understand it you have to understand its creator: Andrew Schlafly: he’s an electrical engineer and lawyer and his mother is Phyllis Schlafly, a lawyer famous for her militant opposition to feminism and the Equal Rights Amendment, a proposed amendment to the constitution that reads:
Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.
Phyllis wasn’t just some opponent of that amendment, no she was probably the primary reason it failed.
In short: there’s no reason why that website should be in any way sane just as there’s no reason its founder should be in any way sane. He really likes to critique physics theories that he doesn’t understand by citing philosophy and theology.
He tried to edit Wikipedia to insert his ideology. Wikipedia editors delivered the "science not nonsense" and "WP:NPOV" smackdown. Conservapedia is the result, written by and for ultra right wing home school students.
The whole family is conservative shitbags with an axe to grind. A rich brewing family that makes second-rate beer and has shitty politics. They're the rich that people talk about when they say "eat the rich."
Several parables in the Bible foreshadow the insight of quantum entanglement about paired photons having opposite spin
Interesting, I wonder what their evidence is for that-
by contrasting two men in their relationship with God. The Prodigal Son contrasts two brothers, two churchgoers are contrasted in Luke 18:9–14 , and two brothers are further contrasted in Luke 21:28-31
Just... 2 people being compared?
LOL
