Conservapedia
Cut and paste from another messageboard...


For those who find Wikipedia too LIBERAL

Because they have such a faith-detroying liberal agenda, you now have an ALTERNATIVE Conservapedia! Now this online encyclopedia provides GREAT resource information. Behold the ENTIRE entry for "elephant":

"Elephants are the world's largest land animals. There are many different kinds of elephant--Asian and African. Asian elephants have smaller ears than African elephants, and are smaller in general, so can thus be distinguished. The population of African elephants has tripled in the last decade. In the past, there were many different types of elephants like mammoths and mastodons, but most creationists say that these species never made it onto the ark and that these species perished with the dinosaurs."

I'll spoil the ending regarding entries for any animal... They ALL descend from the two of their species that were on Noah's Ark!

And if you want to read a CLASSIC entry... under dinosaurs you will read, "There are a number of lines of evidence that point to dinosaurs and man coexisting. For example, explorers have reported seeing a live dinosaur ... A documentary exists starring the American actor Raymond Burr in which a dinosaur menaces mainland Japan, but the veracity of the film is disputed."

You can't make this kind of stuff up!!!

1. I love this bit:
Humans and Dinosaurs Coexisting

There are a number of lines of evidence that point to dinosaurs and man coexisting. For example, explorers have reported seeing a live dinosaur.<3> A thousand people reported seeing a dinosaur-like monster in two sightings around Sayram Lake in Xinjiang according to the Chinese publication, China Today. <4> An expedition which included Charles W. Gilmore, Curator of Vertebrate Paleontology with the United States National Museum, examined an ancient pictograph which is claimed to portray dinosaurs and man coexisting.<5><6>. The World Book Encyclopedia states that: "The dragons of legend are strangely like actual creatures that have lived in the past. They are much like the great reptiles which inhabited the earth long before man is supposed to have appeared on earth. Dragons were generally evil and destructive. Every country had them in its mythology." <7> The Nile Mosaic of Palestrina, a second century piece of art, is said to appear to be a piece of artwork that shows a dinosaur and man coexisting. <8>

An alternate theory for the inclusion of dinosaurs within many cultures is the existence of fossils. Ancient people, unaware that the ancient fossils uncovered by erosion were of extinct animals, attributed the bones to living, magical creatures. This would explain the importance of dragons in Chinese culture - there are a large number of dinosaur (as well as non-dinosaur) fossils to be found in China <9>.
