Is Conservapedia the same as Wikipedia?

Answer 1

Wikipedia is a generalized wiki. It has no specific focus. Conservapedia is a conservatism wiki. If you ask me, a wiki based on one specific religious, moral, or political ideal is going to be biased, especially towards that ideal. So Conservapedia will be biased towards conservatism, even if what the wiki says is actually true.

Then again, Wikipedia can be biased too. Like where it says that almost everyone is an atheist that believes in evolution. Any real poll will show you that religion is by far more popular with humanity than Atheism, but atheists, as well as all other supporter of religions and ideals, will do whatever they can to feel as popular as possible. Even if they were popular, that doesn't make atheism true, so why are they lying about it? Because humanity's nature is to try to convert everyone to what they feel like believing, even if they themselves don't actually truly believe it. By the way, I'm not trying to disprove atheism or even say that I believe it's not true. I'm just saying that even if it was true, the followers still twist information to make themselves feel that much more valid.

I'm digressing here, but it's kinda like if you and your special-ed cousin are hired to promote a luxury car. You're gonna describe the car with things like leather heated seats, internal GPS, great steering, traction, and acceleration, and your special cousin is going to describe it as "it's a car. Uuuuuh... It's red. It moves fast..." Does that mean the car sucks because your cousin sucks at communicating about it or proving points? No. The car is still a good luxury car, regardless of what people say. It's the same about ideals. It doesn't matter if people twist facts and lie and are bad at explaining their ideals-- if an ideal is true, it's true. So if atheism is true, people are gonna lie for either side. And if religion is true, people are gonna lie for either side. This is just an example.

All that just to say that although all wikis are biased, Conservapedia's only gonna be more prone to biasedness than Wikipedia because of it's centering around a single ideal.
