Nice job Red. Can you re-write the New Zealand one. They got some of it wrong. Especially the bit about Bananas and Coconuts. (I think they meant Fiji

And tho my first contribution was rejected from the Faith entry. they seem to have kept my second attempt!!

Well, they've blocked my IP address and edited my France and New-Zealand entries.

Bastages...

I think I might have to have a go at them. Though I plan on being a little more subversive than outright editing in crazy ***** like tentacle rape.

My mind boggles at the irony. So things are too bias towards Christians now?...

'Heaven' forbid you go to that website for Science...

Ok, well I searched 'Evolution' there, thats a good laugh. At first, seemed almost as if they were ready to say it's a well known fact...

I scrolled down a little and oh wait, whats this... "Common Misconceptions", a wall of text 4x the size of the part on evolution...

And now that we have that cleared up, at the bottom of the page is a single link for further reading material, should a single paragraph not sum up evolution in full.

Creationism!

I'd quote the misconception crap but you know how christians are... It's like a page and a half of either dodging the question or missing the point.

The Bhagavad Gita

An ancient Hindu Hymn in Sanskrit.

Part of the Hindu epic the Mahabharata. The Bhagavad Gita starts as a battle is about to start on the fields of Kurukshetra. The two sides of the conflict are the Pandavas and the Kauravas. The battle of epic proportions is apparently over the merits of Tandoori vs Curry cuisine, something any man of a religious nature would easily battle over.

The central figure of the novel is Arjuna, the ugliest of the five Pandava brothers. As the battle is about to begin Arjuna laments the need to battle his own kinsmen over matters of culinary taste. At this moment the avatar of Krishna who had placed himself as Arjuna's charioteer reveals himself and presents the message of the Bhagavad Gita. That the need to uphold righteousness without thought of personal loss. Krishna extolls the virtues of a number of various forms of yoga (bhakti, karma, jnana and dhyana) finally reaching a climax when he allows Arjuna to see his true cosmic form; a scene later recounted by Oppenheimer during the first nuclear test "I am death shatterer of worlds, annihilating all things'" (Chapter 11 Verse 32). As the religious epic winds down Krishna proclaims his favouritism for curry cuisine. The book ends with both sides having a cook off where all parties acknowledge that Bhima's samosas are more delicious than the monkey brains that dewd in Temple of Doom tried to serve to Indiana Jones.

Whoever wrote Russia's entry was clearly from the OOT.

But otherwise, yeah, good alternative to Wiki.

I've been ******** with them by making things there have at least some truth to them and removing all of their conservative bias.

It's actually suprisingly entertaining...

Christian and American? Soooo, christianity is American now? Bet it's funded by the KKK, or the Bush administration.

Edit: Wow, they really are dumb. Only 10% of Americans beleive in evolution...uhm ok I thought the world was smarter than that, but that's a personal opinion and apparently anti American (heaven forbid).

So let's just scrap all scientific knowledge and call everyone with any form of intelligence anti-American and anti-Christian. That is probably the most prejudicial site I've ever seen. It's worse than the KKK site (at least they try to camouflage their dumbness).

Wikipedia often uses foreign spelling of words, even though most English speaking users are American. Look up "Most Favored Nation" on Wikipedia and it automatically converts the spelling to the British spelling "Most Favoured Nation", even there there are far more American than British users. Look up "Division of labor" on Wikipedia and it automatically converts to the British spelling "Division of labour," then insists on the British spelling for "specialization" also.[3]. Enter "Hapsburg" (the European ruling family) and Wikipedia automatically changes the spelling to Habsburg, even though the American spelling has always been "Hapsburg". Within entries British spellings appear in the silliest of places, even when the topic is American. Conservapedia favors American spellings of words.

So... why should Wikipedia be "American?" Does America own the internet now...?
