The Lord's Encyclopedia

I should know enough to not bother, but somethings are just to unbelievable to be true.

From Spiegel Online:

Wikipedia for Christian Fundamentalists

How you call something based on ignorance and outright bias any kind of encyclopedia (see Conservapedia and CreationWiki) is beyond me, but at least you know to take everything with satire right from the onset.

You don't have to look long to find erronous. From CreationWiki:

Evolutionism is the belief(1) in the theory that life on Earth is simply the result of random, natural processes, and ultimately attempts to explain the existence of humans by means other than divine creation(2).

1) Evolution is not a faith, no belief is required. In fact if scientists told you to simply believe them, nothing would get published. Those kinds of scientists don't last long.

2) Science is not concerned with proving things for the purpose of negating religion. They may find it depressing to hear that Science is actually not concerned with Religion, the relationship is a bit one-sided.

Is there some hope? Well at least EvoWiki has been up and running for some time, and for anyone who is willing, there is a multitude of information discussing what Evolution actually is, and is freely available though libraries, online and open access journals.
