Conservapedia Targetting Canada on Evolution
6/27/2009 at 11:18 AM
I noticed this at Conservapedia. For those who don't know, Conservapedia is similar in style to Wikipedia, except that it's entirely biased with a pro-american, Pro-Conservative/republican spin. They don't allow the public to edit it, etc etc etc. It's fun to read for a laugh once in a while.
Anyway, i saw this on it today

Attention Canadian evolutionists! Conservapedia now nearly ranks in the Google top 10 for the very popular search "evolution" at Google Canada! The Conservapedia evolution article ranks #12 at Google Canada for the search evolution![11] The article appears to be rapidly gaining prominence on the Canadian internet. Will this creation science wildfire spread to the USA, UK, and beyond? Please stay tuned for further developments!

That's hilarious. Somehow they think that because they're raking high with google, that somehow they're now considered credible.
To get an idea on how "scientific" these people are, read thier explanation of the "debate" on how the earth was created.

It's funny because they list the "3 most popular ideas" on the creation of the earth, however they do not list them in order of actual popular opinion, nor popular scientific opinion.
