Peyton Manning — a quarterback who won only one NFL championship, despite being voted by the media and others to be NFL MVP 4 times, AFC Player of the Year 6 times, and Pro Bowler 11 times. The liberal media treated him like the Second Coming of Christ in order to oust conservative Tim Tebow from his leadership position in the swing state of Colorado prior to the Presidential Election 2012.

Mark Sanchez — the New York Jets quarterback is being touted as the team's best QB over conservative Christian Tim Tebow despite falling apart at the end of the 2011–12 season. Now that Tebow's on-board, liberals are championing the former USC star as the superior player despite his recently poor play.

Ronaldinho - looked like a wonderful player in early years, but quickly became overweight due to his 'partying' lifestyle. Fired from minor Brazilian team, he declared he's finally "just going to party"
They seem to have confused Ronaldinho with Ronaldo...

Cristiano Ronaldo his spectacular talents have been ruined by his self-obsession, vanity and cravings of celebrity. He is now officially "sad"
So, Cristiano, where did it all go wrong?

Obama weeps -- for himself, and then has the private video specially released to the public afterward to puff his image. Talking about his own past as a "community organizer," Obama sheds a tear as he builds to his self-centered point: "I became a man during that process." [5]
A Tea Party activist asks several disturbing questions about the 2012 Presidential Election. He lists six possible reasons why Obama won. Some are truly chilling. [6]

Obama article too big for editors to keep up on everything, lol
2011, Birth Certificate ReleasedMain Article: Barack_Obama_Controversies#Birth_CertificateOn April 27, 2011[181], a long-running controversy surrounding Obama's birth was largely put to rest[182] when Obama had his long-form birth certificate posted at WhiteHouse.gov.[183] Donald Trump, who had attacked Obama on the Birth Certificate issue and was then leading Republicans in polls for the upcoming GOP primary[184], was effectively knocked out of the race because of this.[185]The following is a timeline of previous events leading up to the release:In June 2008 the Obama campaign allowed FactCheck.org to look at his “Certificate of Live Birth” and take photos.[186]In July 2008 a blogger discovered a birth announcement from the Honolulu Advertiser from August 13, 1961 for Barack Obama. It has since been discovered another newspaper, the Star Bulletin, also documented the birth.[187]PolitiFact went to extreme lengths to verify Obama’s citizenship, attaining scanned copies of his 1992 marriage certificate from Cook County, IL, his driver’s license record, and his registration and disciplinary record. PolitiFact also addressed a number of concerns about the documentation.[188]In October 2008 Hawaii’s Department of Health released a statement by Dr. Chiyome Fu.kino verifying that Obama’s birth certificate was on record.[189]In August 2009 it was revealed that an alleged Kenyan birth certificate for Obama was a hoax.[190] Another website allows you to create your own imitation Kenyan birth certificates online.[191]Regardless of the consistent proof of such a birth certificate existing, deluded paranoid right wing morons refuse to except this fact.

I mean stuff like:
Georg Cantor's development of set theory in the late 19th century was initially rejected by many great mathematicians, including Henri Poincare, before it became the basis for nearly all of mathematics today. But the Bible contains many hints in support of set theory, as in the "last shall be first, and the first shall be last."

Giant sea creatures and Jonah
The Book of Jonah describes his survival in the belly of a giant sea creature for 2.5 to 3 days. Scientists declared this to be impossible due to powerful stomach acids that quickly break down any material and the lack of breathable air inside marine animals.In 2010, scientists found the following materials intact in the belly of a gray whale that had died after being stranded on a Northwest beach:[35]a pair of sweat pantsa golf ballover 20 plastic bagssmall towelsduct tapesurgical glovesOf course, many sea creatures have gone extinct in the thousands of years since Jonah lived.

Only in moderns times have scientists become aware of enormous underwater springs feeding into the oceans, and the very deep valleys at the bottom of the oceans.
But the Bible repeatedly describes this thousands of years earlier: "on that very day the deep subcrustal springs were broken open, and the windows of the sky were thrown open." (Genesis 7:11 (CBP)
The CBP referred to there presumably is the Conservative Bible Project, which aims to 'render God's word into modern English without liberal translation distortions.' So they're relying on a distorted version of the bible, written with the benefit of hundreds of years of science, in order to prove that the bible contains 'comprehension of scientific knowledge far ahead of its time'?
My brain hurts :(
― bizarro gazzara, Tuesday, 13 November 2012 15:55 (eleven years ago) link
A favorite evolutionist canard is that Leviticus 11:13-19 labels the bat, a mammal, as a bird. But this is an obvious failure of translation, as the Hebrew term 'owph did not entail the "clade" of birds, but was a non-biological category referring to any winged creature, mammalian, avian, or insect. The KJV translation as "fowl" is simply incorrect.
They're acknowledging the King James bible contains inaccuracies in translation? But don't they also believe it's 100% the word of God?

If someone is really devout, I can sort of understand how they could believe that e.g. the Bible predicts all kinds of scientific discoveries (even if the rationalizations given are pretty weak) but just... I looked up words like "conservative" and "socialism" in a dictionary when I was 10-11 and came across them in a newspaper. Do these people not have access to dictionaries? Or do they think that non-Conservapedia reference sources have a liberal bias?
