Go, eat your food with gladness, and drink your wine with a joyful heart, for it is now that God favors what you do. Always be clothed in white, and always anoint your head with oil. Enjoy life with your wife, whom you love, all the days of this meaningless life that God has given you under the sun— all your meaningless days. For this is your lot in life and in your toilsome labor under the sun. Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the grave, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom.
--Ecclesiastes 9:7-10
Who am I?
I am a 37-year-old Christian conservative who has been married to an amazing woman for 10 wonderful years and who has an active 7-year-old son, an adorable 5-year-old daughter and a precious 5-month-old son. For a little more about me, see the boxes to the right.
Why am I here?
Because Wikipedia sucks. Here's why:
1) Wiki really does have a liberal bias (duh!).
2) People can put any blasted information they want there no matter how faulty as long as it's "published" somewhere by someone or backed by lame "proof" (like what a person's organization's website sells).
3) As long as you have the letters "p," "h" and "d" after your name in that order and are a liberal, anything you say no matter how wrong, biased, unsupported or just plain stupid becomes gospel truth on Wiki if someone somewhere reproduced it online.
4) Liberals can defend their edits without repercussions but if a conservative does so, they are accused of edit warring, trolling, vandalism, disruption, etc.
5) As long as you can call in your buddies, you can sidestep the "three-revert rule" and indefinitely defend your edits without ever being accused of edit warring.
6) If one of your buddies is an admin, all the better.
7) See the Wikipedia article about D. James Kennedy (who apparently is a supporter of Intelligent Design now instead of a Bible-based, 6-literal-days, 6000-year-old-Earth, life-created-as-is Creationist).
8) Wikipedia now has at least two blatantly anti-Christian and anti-Intelligent Design admins (FeloniousMonk and Guettarda) who are among a larger group of jack-booted, pro-evolution thugs who tag-team against anyone who disagrees with their personal agenda to keep Wikipedia in accordance with their POV. They throw around personal attacks and baseless accusations without providing proof and use them to silence an opposing viewpoint. They also make sure to defend each other's edits and/or admin actions (e.g. blocking users) so that they can't be undone. This tag-teaming also conveniently subverts Wikipedia's "three-revert rule."
- NOTE: FeloniousMonk has since been removed from adminship[1] after 3 years due to his contentious behavior and severe abuses of his admin power.[2]
9) Reliable, established news sources like NewsMax are rejected as not meeting Wikipedia's guidelines for reliable sources, but blog entries by people like PZ Myers are viciously defended (without any arguments of merit) as reliable sources despite failing every guideline for such.
Whence "Jinxmchue?"
My username (which I have used elsewhere in various forms: "Jinx McHue," "Jinx72," etc.) is a combination of two things:
- "Jinx" is the name of an old Advanced Dungeons and Dragons character of mine who, like I am in real life, was very accident prone.
- NOTE: sadly, I do not play tabletop RPGs of any kind anymore. My life has taken a new direction now that I am a husband and father.
- "McHue" is a concept borrowed from a friend. In creating part of a nickname/screenname, he used the first syllable of his last name preceded by "Mc." I have done the same.
- My real first name, if you must know, is Jason. They Might Be Giants killed me off along with "countless screaming Argonauts."

Jinx's Law
"The more people proclaim themselves to be something, they less likely they actually are it."
- Variant 1 (aka the Castro Street Variant): "The more tolerant people proclaim themselves to be, the less tolerant they actually are of people different from themselves."
- Variant 2 (aka the Obsessed and Unhinged Variant): "The more rational people proclaim themselves to be, the more irrational they actually are."
- Variant 3 (aka the Neo-Liberal Variant): "The more open-minded people proclaim themselves to be, the more closed-minded they actually are."
- Variant 4 (aka the B. Hussein Variant): "The more dedicated to freedom of speech people proclaim themselves to be, the more they are prone to try to censor free speech."
The lesson: "If you want to be something, just be it. Quietly. Humbly. Other people will recognize it without you having to point it out. The moment you start bellowing 'Look at me! Look how ________ I am!' is the moment you open yourself up to being exactly the opposite of what you claim to be."
Proving Jinx's Law: Example 1
Apparently there's a mainline "tolerant" church in England that has blocked Conservapedia on its internet server because CP is (supposedly) intolerant of gays, evolution, unbelief and tolerance (yeah, we're intolerant of tolerance, I guess). So... we're being blocked because this supposedly "tolerant" church is intolerant of conservative beliefs. Ironic. And people apparently support this form of censorship, too. Only because its being done by a mainline church, of course. If this were, say, a conservative church blocking access to liberal websites, these same clowns would be hopping, frothy mad.
Proving Jinx's Law: Example 2
Liberals are big-time privacy advocates, particularly when it comes to their misconceptions about programs the government uses to spy on known and suspected terrorists. Unsurprisingly, though, they had no problem with someone on their side hacking into Sarah Palin's Yahoo! email account, nor did they have a problem posting the stolen contents all over their websites. "Privacy for me, not for thee."

The anti-Christian, atheist POV warriors on WP lose one
I didn't notice this before. An article listing "people and organizations associated with Dominionism" used to be on Wikipedia. It was nominated once for deletion[4], but the "usual suspects" showed up en masse to vote to keep the article. FeloniousMonk, Jim62sch, OrangeMarlin, Filll, Guettarda - they're all part of a large group of people who push their narrow POV on articles about Christians, Christianity, Creationism, Intelligent Design, evolution, and the like. They gang up and ensure that their edits are defended indefinitely first by tag-teaming to subvert the three-revert-rule (3RR) and then by accusing anyone who opposes them of gross violations of WP rules (usually accusing them of edit warring and, ironically enough, violating 3RR). The article was kept, but it was later nominated a second time.[5] Most of the same people showed up to vote to keep it, but they LOST and the article was deleted "because of severe NPOV and BLP problems." The article has not been recreated.
Anti-Conservapedia groups on Facebook
The majority of them have very little membership and have been dormant for months or even years. Funny stuff.
I have all my wisdom teeth
And I will keep them all until the day I die as long as I keep them clean and healthy. I guess I disprove evolution. Hey, if having one's wisdom teeth removed supposedly proves evolution, then the opposite is just as true.
Why I don't respond to emails from blocked trolls
Because they inevitably degenerate into their true colors:
I note that you lack even the courtesy to respond to my question. I cannot say that I am surprised. Bullies are usually cowards beneath the skin. I suggest that in order to avoid the need to block editors like me in future, you should change the so-called Conservapedia Commandments by adding the following warning: "Any editor that makes Andy Schlafly or one of his flunkies look like a fool will be blocked without notice". After all, fair notice is only fair. Now slink back and curl up by Andy's feet, you pathetic creature.
Who is more foolish: the fool or the fool he blocked?
I'm single-handedly bringing down conservatism! Oh, noes!!!
Another troll blocked, another hilariously serious email:
Congrats, Jinx! Never has so little power been so egregiously abused. Does it bother you that within a generation conservatism as you know it will be obsolete? Keep working backwards, friend, you do us liberals all a great favor!
Honestly, if these people would take a moment to listen to themselves, they'd instantly stop being liberals. (I know I did!)
Coveting your prayers right now
My family went through the flu (most likely H1N1 we've since learned) a couple weeks back, but since then, I've been having problems with my lungs. Lots of coughing, sometimes with some difficulty, a possible case of pneumonia (which was caught early and treated) and coughing up some blood from my lungs in the mornings. I had to collect samples of what I was coughing up for three mornings in a row and the lab results came back tonight. They showed the presence of atypical cells, which may or may not indicate a problem. I need to have a CT scan and bronchoscopy next week so they can learn more. I have asthma, so I'm sure they're not taking any chances. I'm not worried or upset in any way, but it is a little exhausting physically, mentally and spiritually to have to deal with one thing after another.
Checked the Mayo Clinic website and found out that atypical cells can be caused by mundane things (like inflammation, which I undoubtedly have due to my continual coughing and asthma). They can clear up on their own or with treatment for whatever is causing them. Still, they can be an early indicator of cancer or other serious conditions, so it's best to find out what is causing them to appear.
They found a small nodule in my lower left lung, but it sounds like inflammation has been what has been causing my recent problems. My bronchoscopy is early Wed. morning.
