Conservapedia Fact Check
This is the sign of a week minded person.

Quote:The journalist and ex-atheist Peter Hitchens, who is the brother of the late atheist Christopher Hitchens, said upon seeing an art exhibit of Michelangelo's painting The Last Judgment he came to the realization that he might be judged which startled him. This started a train of thought within Peter Hitchens that eventually led him to become a Christian.

Quote:The Shroud of Turin (in Italian, la Sacra Sindone) is the most studied artifact in the history of the world, causing some agnostic or atheist scientists to convert to Christianity.

The complaint is that Wikipedia has a liberal bias, but truthfully reality itsself has a liberal bias. Conservatism doesn't last long, because it's hard to keep things the same in life. Everything changes from time to time. Everyone knows this. The harder you fight to maintain the status quo, the worse off things will get in the long run.

I actually posted this in memory, having watched the video.

The REGULAR Bible makes me feel light-headed.

Something that bothered me recently is that he likes to talk about how Trump bankrupted four businesses, or something like that, but he never mentioned the guy has a bunch of them. In general it's usually best not to rely on one source of info if you want a full story. Fact check your favorite news source.

I imagine it will be something like

They may be a bit more broad-minded than that. I saw the infomercial, and it seems they will include some outright heretics in their sales package:

Order now, and we'll include the Apocrypha, the complete works of Ayn Rand, for no additional charge. That's right, the life's work of conservative Christianity's greatest prophet of profit, valued at $1.99 will be sent to your home absolutely free! So don't wait. Pick up that phone now!
