    I edited the Charles Darwin section and was quickly banned. I should have been subtler. For example, I should have said he supported abortion somewhere.

    We could have a word game, something like see how many edits to articles you can do by adding a specific word before you're banned.

    My word suggestion is "pie" or "pies".

    I think any edits with the word should be subtle at first, perhaps where it is relevant.. then sneak it in more and more.

    First to edit the penny arcade entry on conservapedia to add "Penny Arcade forums is a well known place where liberal communists convene to plot the downfall of America." gets a cookie.

    I was going to suggest that the article mention all the comics in which Jesus appears.

    "In the comic appearing on *date*, Jesus Christ descended from Heaven amidst choirs of angels, expressing enthusiasm for deep-fried Twinkies."

    It should make it sound like Penny Arcade isn't making fun of Jesus at all.

    Whoever sneaks the picture of Jesus throwing up the horns into the Jesus entry wins the internets.

    remember, if it doesn't stay up for at least ten minutes, it doesn't count.

    The Jesus article is locked from being edited, or I was totally on it.

    I found a good one. A while back Conservapedia had a contest to design a new logo for the site.

    This is the logo that won.
    CP_Hidden_Alpha.png

    Designed by a guy called BillOReillyFan, it went up on the sites main page for a week or so before someone noticed something amiss. Look carefully. (Edit: actually its pretty easy to see on this forum.). A hidden alpha channel! Also open the file in notepad and written at the bottom is:

    Thank you for investigating this file
    enough to find this little note.
    Here's a treat for you:
    Place this image onto a dark
    background and look real close.
    If you can't see anything, use
    graphical manipulation software
    to up the brightness and contrast.
    You'll find out what I actually
    feel about this website.

    You see, I find the very existence of
    Conservapedia repugnant. Please do not
    use this website. It really is a crock of
    shit.

    -- MarkyH, concerned "liberal."

    The logo was quickly removed.

    Make the feminism article more accurate.
    http://www.conservapedia.com/Feminism
    Specifically, modern feminists tend to:

    * believe that there are no inherent differences between men and women and that all inequality is the result of men oppressing women[4]
    * view traditional marriage as unacceptably patriarchal
    * prefer shirking traditional gender activities, like baking [5]
    * support affirmative action for women
    * detest women who are happy in traditional roles, such as housewife,[6] and especially dislike those who defend such roles
    * prefer that women wear pants rather than dresses, presumably because men do[7][8]
    * seek women in combat in the military just like men, and coed submarines
    * flat-out refuse to take the husband's last name when marrying[9]
    Actually, you can probably add crazy shit to that article as long as it fits the conservative mindset and you are golden. What are some feminist stereotypes that aren't on there?

    There are quite a few counter-studies out there that directly contradict their information, and I belive every creditable psychiatric organization out there has given up on calling homosexuality a mental disorder or the idea that it's mutable.

    I am guessing this would be unacceptable to add..

    It's the perjorative of choice anytime you want to mock someone's family choice, not limited to any one group, although I always want to punch someone through the internet when I hear someone use it. Especially self-proclaimed child-free types.

    So what does conservapedia say about the child free movement? I'm using my bro-in-law's laptop, and I don't want that coming up in the history,
