-== Conservapedia should revive the activity of its Twitter account, IMO ==
-Hi Andy, RobSmith and I seem to concur that it would benefit Conservapedia to promote itself via Twitter (especially now that the era of censorship is over). Especially with page view growth being sluggish, having an extra significant source of directing web traffic could be drastically beneficial. What are your thoughts on this? —[[User:LT|<code><span style="background:#FF8181">'''LT'''</span></code>]] '''''[[User talk:LT|<sup>(Exodus 23:2)</sup>]]''''' Friday, 16:34, December 9, 2022 (EST)
-== Improving the wiki ==
-Hi Andy, I notice that plenty of article titles on Conservapedia follow incorrect grammar styles/formats, whether <s>its</s> it's (yeah, pun intended) outdated spelling, capitalization of common nouns (in words notwithstanding the first word of the title), lowercase usage of proper nouns, usage of hyphens instead of en-dashes, etc. Since I don't want to bother you or other administrators continuously to move every article I notice whose title needs adjustments, may I please have the "move" tag so I can do some important tasks myself as part of improving the site?

Now, on another note, "reports" [https://www.aol.com/news/tom-cotton-won-t-run-023838433.html claimed that Cotton won't run for president in 2024], and some fake news headlines left out the "reports said" part and simply say "Cotton won't run for president."

-::I never was the biggest fan of Cotton, but it wasn't until early 2020 that I started seeing him as the dangerous demagogue he is. He along with Mike Pompeo were among the first to jump on the "China made COVID happen on purpose" bandwagon, and since then they have been using it to build a case for a military conflict with a country that has the world's largest population, the world's largest economy, and the world's third most powerful military.

-:::Sounds like an interesting analysis, and it's certainly not the first time that the CIA tries pushing the U.S. into the brink of world war. Back in the 1960s, CIA Director Charles P. Cabell was fired by [[JFK]] in the wake of the [[Bay of Pigs invasion]]. The CIA back then pushed militant "anti-Communism" to the point of seeking outright direct war with Communist-controlled countries, and was tied to a "shadow government" run by a gang of Dallas oilmen, including [[Jack Crichton]], who financed pro-Batista revolutionaries. There's some speculation that the CIA directly coordinated the JFK assassination as revenge for Kennedy's efforts to "quietly" deplete their funding in proposed budget plans. Crichton, a member of the OSS (which evolved into the CIA) who established powerful connections to run the "shadow government," was connected to almost all aspects of the assassination. Director Cabell's brother, Earle Cabell, the mayor of Dallas at the time of the assassination, was a CIA asset since the late 1950s, reportedly loathed JFK, and plotted the unsafe motorcade route. —[[User:LT|<code><span style="background:#FF8181">'''LT'''</span></code>]] '''''[[User talk:LT|<sup>(Exodus 23:2)</sup>]]''''' Friday, 23:14, December 22, 2022 (EST)

-:: (edit conflict) Geopolitician, that is "out there" but I enjoyed your outlandish comment.  I'm not sure how strong Cotton and Pompeo were against China concerning [[COVID-19]].  [[Trump]]'s outspokenness on it seem more than anyone, and Trump is anti-war.  Placing blame on China for Covid can mean liability more than a military conflict.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] ([[User talk:Aschlafly|talk]]) 23:08, December 22, 2022 (EST)
-:::Trump didn't want a conflict with China, he wanted a trade deal with it. Now, how much of a coincidence do you think it is that the virus was released while Trump and Xi were in late-stage negotiations for the "Phase 1" trade deal? I don't believe it was a coincidence at all, and I suspect that the perpetrators did it precisely to prevent the trade deal from going through, because such a deal would be a serious setback for the military-industrial complex, which wants a conflict with China. That automatically makes the neocons who infiltrated the Trump administration, led by Pompeo, the prime suspects in my book.--[[User:Geopolitician|Geopolitician]] ([[User talk:Geopolitician|talk]]) 23:16, December 22, 2022 (EST)

-:::::The DARPA documents obtained by Project Veritas confirm that Dr. Fauci was the man in charge of the project that developed the virus, and that the version of the virus which caused the pandemic came from the Wuhan lab. However, there is scant evidence as to who was responsible for the virus leaving the lab. And based on the circumstances, my first suspect is the Trump administration neocons (led by Pompeo) for the reasons listed above. My guess as to how it happened is that they arranged for a CIA agent to infiltrate the lab and steal a sample of the virus before releasing it into the open air. Given that the project was a joint Chinese-American venture, such an infiltration wouldn't have been too difficult to pull off. Meanwhile, they allowed some information but not too much information to come out in order to set up both Fauci and the CCP as scapegoats for the actual lab leak, as opposed to merely being the benefactors of the project which created the virus.

It's my observation that both directly, and through the moral lessons He ensures among his prophets, God's infinite wisdom means an outstanding sense of humor at times.

-== A re-examination of the longer Mark ending ==
-Initially, I believed, just as you assert in the [[Mark ending]] article, that verses 16:9–20 lack authenticity due to absence from the supposedly mostly reliable manuscripts, codices Vaticanus and Sinaiticus. However, [https://www.1611kingjamesbible.com/codex_vaticanus.html/ it's actually those two codices which are terribly unreliable!] They are deceptively tampered versions of what substantiates the [[Textus Receptus]], which is vastly corroborated, as the implied narratives of [[Codex Vaticanus]] and/or [[Codex Sinaiticus]] are the result of [[Origen]]'s heretical viewpoints. In Vaticanus, the section for what should be Mark 16:9–20 is simply missing from most of the column—to paraphrase the writings of John W. Burgon, what clearly happened was that the scribe who complied with the order to "remove" that section intentionally left a massive blank section to indicate as clearly as possible that it was the removal of legitimate material as opposed to the contemporary narrative that the most "reliable" manuscripts simply didn't include Mark 16:9–20.
-Codex Vaticanus also flagrantly lacks the Pastoral Epistles and the Book of Revelation, and misses a large chunk of Hebrews. It seems that the Vatican, displeased with the historicist eschatology of the Reformation implicating ''it'' as the first beast of Revelation, is more than happy to discredit the final book of the Bible in some way. Also, the early promoters of codices Vaticanus and Sinaiticus, Brooke Westcott and F. J. A. Hort, were apparently occultists attempting to dilute the Bible and dumb-down subsequent generations compared to their contemporaries who understand the King James Bible diligently. Unsurprisingly, the modern translations which rely on Vaticanus and Sinaiticus (as opposed to Textus Receptus), the same ones which place Mark 16:9–20 in brackets with the "earliest and/or most reliable manuscripts don't contain this section" notice, horrendously remove the evidence of Jesus's divinity in their "translation" of hundreds of verses. —[[User:LT|<code><span style="background:#FF8181">'''LT'''</span></code>]] '''''[[User talk:LT|<sup>(Matthew 26:52)</sup>]]''''' Sunday, 00:46, May 14, 2023 (EDT)

-*added because the ending in verse 8 is a "because" conjunction, but it's the conjunction that shouldn't be there

-Andy, I know that are against "template pollution". RobS when he disagrees with people tries to shut down debate by using a template that covers up their text. This is rude and not something that a conservative gentlemen would engage in. This rude and bullying template pollution by RobS needs to end.
-In addition, when RobS is losing an argument/debate on a talk page, he retitles the thread title in order to distort the description of content below the thread's title and this is often done in a disparaging way. This also needs to end.
-Something has to be done to curb RobS's incivility. And I know for a fact that I am not the only one who feels this way.

-== RobS' behavior of falsely imputing Nazism on Conservapedia editors. His recent attack on User:NishantXavier was totally disgraceful ==
-[[User:NishantXavier]] is a very polite Indian Conservapedian who is a devout Catholic. RobS recently said the following to [User:NishantXavier: "the more you expose yourself to be being accused of being a Nazi and holding Nazi views".[https://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=User_talk:NishantXavier&diff=1959713&oldid=1959712]
-Andy this is a complete farce and ridiculous. [[Godwin's law]] strikes again. And unfortunately, RobS lacks sufficient self-awareness to realize how much he is embarrassing himself.
-Throughout my life, I have come across many people from India. They are unfailingly polite. RobS, could learn a few things from User:NishantXavier when it comes to politeness. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 11:06, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-:No it ain't. I'm advising him that if he wants to hold Vladimir Putin responsible for the 1938 [[Holodomor]], don't be surprised if people call him a Nazi. I didn't call him a Nazi.

-::Why are you reposting to Andy's talk page 2022 Conservapedia content which I presume is from Andy's talk page? This certainly smacks of desperation on your part RobS.
-::Andy is not a big believer of hyper-[[multiculturism]] who thinks it is wrong to offer valid critiques concerning other countries. So you are barking up the wrong tree.
-::And it is liberals who constantly falsely accuse others of phobias due to their tendency of being fond of psychobabble (For example, calling people "homophobes"). So once again, you are making yourself less conservative in Andy's eyes. Stopping digging the hole you are in deeper RobS. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 11:22, July 2, 2023 (EDT)

-::::RobS, Russians have a big problem with alcoholism - especially Russian men. And Russia has one of the lowest fertility rates in the world and it also has the highest abortion rate in the world. Why do you become so angry when people mention reality? Putin himself has said how big of a problem that Russia's low fertility rate is to Russia and that Russia must strive to have a replacement level of births. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 11:53, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-:::::Right. So we need another $150 billion for Nazis cause they aren't killing em fast enough and they're gonna die anyway. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Give Peace a chance'']]</sup> 12:04, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-RobS, your all or nothing thinking is irrational. I am for the USA cutting military aid to the Ukrainians. However, this doesn't force me to deny the alcoholism problem in Russia or deny that it has the highest abortion rate in the world and has one of the lowest fertility rates in the world.

-:Andy, in my essays [[Essay: Godless Britain is the fat man of Europe|Godless Britain is the fat man of Europe]] and [[Essay: God is smiting Britain. The godless land of fat, heavy drinkers!|God is smiting Britain. The godless land of fat, heavy drinkers!]] I state the following with citations:
-::"Professor Terence Stephenson in Measuring Up, a report on the nation's obesity crisis by the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges (AoMRC), called Britain "the fat man of Europe".[1]
-::Professor David Coleman, Emeritus Professor of Demography at Oxford University stated in 2023: "The population is getting older, and also the population in Britain is the fattest in Europe and rather vulnerable to diseases notably heart disease and diabetes; some people have been forecasting separately from Covid that death rates would continue to get worse because the country is so unhealthy." (Bolding added for emphasis)".
-:Andy, it is not my fault that many British people have become portly and that thousands of British pubs have faced hardships.
-:And the sad truth is that RobS lacks a sense of humor. My [[Essay: Godless Britain is the fat man of Europe|Godless Britain is the fat man of Europe]] has received over 6,700 page views which is more page views than RobS has received from any of the essays that he may have written.
-:In the past, although I have had a cordial relationship with some British atheists/agnostics, I did have a rather pesky, British agnostic who was engaging in anklebiting. So I took a few good-natured jabs at the UK such as comparing the economies and road quality of Switzerland (which has one of the highest rates of creationism in Europe) vs. UK's economy and road quality. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 11:38, July 2, 2023 (EDT)

-RobS, you wrote that I have 6,700 enemies. Did you count them? You need to stop your obsession with me. And you need to stop making claims about me that you obviously can't support. Show me that data that I have 6,700 enemies RobS. I have had some of the biggest atheist YouTube channels promote some of my humorous content about atheism/atheists. RobS, when you have less humor than secular leftists, something is wrong. Something is dreadfully wrong. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 11:59, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-:You've been obsessively trolling me all week, reverting my postings, and keeping me from being updated with war news in probably the most crucial week of the war. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Give Peace a chance'']]</sup> 12:01, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-::RobS, one of YouTube's biggest atheist channels liked my humorous essay [[Essay: 10 telltale signs you are an atheist nerd|10 telltale signs you are an atheist nerd]] which has over 79,000 page views. Your humorless attitude is not only tiring, but it goes against what people often like about the internet (It has humorous content).
-::RobS, a while ago you started putting templates over my content and reverting my content. And the icing on the cake was you began calling me a Nazi and Nazi sympathizer. And sadly, you have called another good faith editor a promoter of Nazism.
-::Stop this tiresome and rude behavior. Then you can follow this war more closely. A war that Professor [[John Joseph Mearsheimer]] says will probably drag on for a long time (He predicted war long before it occurred). And if this war drags on a long time, this will make Russia's already bad situation concerning its population loss problem even worse. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 12:11, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-:::I never called you a Nazi, I said you were dangerously close to expressing nazis views. So what did you do? You doubled and tripled down on expressing nazi views. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Give Peace a chance'']]</sup> 12:20, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-:::And if you wish to challenge me on this, there is no way out for you - cause you know I am not a "lame debater", and I will show Andy chapter and verse where, as I showed you, where your posted views in Conservapedia align with Nazism. Below you said you were capable of changing your mind. If so, you need to hurry up and repent now. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Give Peace a chance'']]</sup> 12:24, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-:::A person does not need to be an avowed nazi to express Nazi views. It can be done unwittingly. Most normal people will reverse themselves when it's pointed out. And as i told you before, i've had family members who thought Hitler was great in 1930s, so I've dealt with close up. What I know about Nazism I didn't learn from leftists. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Give Peace a chance'']]</sup> 12:31, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-RobS, I will offer a few of your quotes to demonstate that you have falsely called me a Nazi/neo-Nazi:
-"We're done talking. I'm sick of your neo-nazi views." - RobS 14:04, June 23, 2023 (EDT)"
-"If you call Putin a communist, don't be surprised if you get called a Nazi. That is what you don't understand about European politics." -  RobS 19:05, June 23, 2023 (EDT)"
-And you continually fail to show that I hold neo-nazi views. The thought that a patriotic, conservative, Christian American that is pro-Israel and is a creationist would love anti-Semitic, German socialist nationalism which loved evolutionary racism is a very foolish claim. A very foolish claim that you have failed to support.
-By the way, I never accused Putin of being a communist. I merely have said that he is a corrupt and authoritarian kleptocrat (See: [[Essay: Vladimir Putin is a corrupt kleptocrat and an authoritarian]]). [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]])
-:Yep, start with the last one - cause the more you talk, the more you convince me. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Give Peace a chance'']]</sup> 12:37, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-::If I cared what you thought, I wouldn't have blocked your email or removed you from my cell phone contacts. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]])
-:How many times have you said it right here on this talk page, that Russia's high alcohol and low fertility rates justify paying Nazis to kill Russians? [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Give Peace a chance'']]</sup> 12:40, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-::I can understand someone making a stupid comment like that 16 months ago, but by now you should have learned something. Instead you repeat the same mantra daily a half dozen times, and spam it everywhere possible. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Give Peace a chance'']]</sup> 12:45, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-'''Quick note to RobS:''' If you want me to stop critiquing your most cherished false views and showing them to be hopelessly false, then stop putting templates over my texts and stop reverting me. And stop falsely calling me a Nazi. I am less interested in politics and all I ask is that you stop putting templates over my content and stop reverting me when I am engaging in civil discussion. Until this stops, my valid critiques of Russia, Putin and China will continue.
-I have wanted a cease fire for days, but you keep engaging in this bullying behavior. RobS, I can be very persistent. I suggest you stop your bullying behavior because it will never work on me. I am never intimidated by bullying behavior. And I am very capable of assertively confronting it and mocking it. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 12:52, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-::So what's this deal? You're going to keep spewing Nazi rhetoric and abusing the Deletion key so long as I tolerate you disrupting and trolling '''''other''''' people's civil discussions?

-:Let's move on to another subject; you keep talking about the growth of European Populism. Sooner or later the populist, socialists, anti-globalists, and genuine antifascists of Europe will unite to drive the Macrons, Scholzs, Sunaks, Meronis, Zelesnkys, and every other totalitarian fascist neo-nazi and nazisyymp from power - just as in WWII. I already know which side you are on, you have made it clear. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Give Peace a chance'']]</sup> 12:54, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-::Populism has its problems. Just because something is popular, doesn't mean it is true. Just because I see right-wing populism growing, doesn't mean I necessarily agree with all its supporters. For example, [[Steve Turley]] (who I am a fan of) is a right-wing populist, is a bit too Russia in terms of Russia cheerleading (But to be fair, because he is Greek Orthodox Christian, he sees the war in Ukraine to be a tragedy within Orthodox Christianity as the Russians and Ukrainians are both within the Eastern Orthodox religion).  I try to see Russia's strengths and weaknesses. Sadly, for Russia, its current weaknesses are bigger than its strengths and I see it fading in relevance as time goes on due its continual loss of population. And Turley could talk more about the huge national debt of the USA. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 13:02, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-:::Oh Good Good Good! Your nazi buddies will stay in power and keep killing those infertile drunk Russians (on the American dime). Hopefully the [[LGBT]] movement can make further inroads too, huh? [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Give Peace a chance'']]</sup> 13:09, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
-RobS, again, I am for the USA cutting military funding for the war in Ukraine.
-And if you want me to stop pointing out the various weaknesses of Russia, China, and Putin with less intensity, then simply stop using your censoring templates and stop reverting my civil discussions.
-If you were more of a realist, you wouldn't get so upset when I point out how fast Russia/China are declining and that their foreseeable future looks bleak. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 13:15, July 2, 2023 (EDT)
