As covered pretty well everywhere on the blogosphere, Conservapedia, the right-wing answer to the close approximation to reality that is Wikipedia, has taken it upon themselves to edit out all that hippie crap that somehow snuck its way into the Bible over the hundreds of years that the Bible has been written and rewritten by its various authors. Twitter, being on the cutting edge of all breaking news as usual, exploded with examples of proposed edits almost immediately. Here’s some of my favorites from just the past hour.
