Wikipedia's New Archnemesis

euniana writes "Forget about Britannica, and meet Uncyclopedia. Formally the adoptive first cousin of Wikipedia, Uncyclopedia stands for everything Wikipedia cannot have: misinformation, satire, and lies. Does this prove that satire and humour can take off in a collaborative environment, a possibility often contested by grumpy Wikipedians? What many people don't know is that the Wikipedia article on the Flying Spaghetti Monster was partly copied from the FSM article on Uncyclopedia. Will the confusion ever end?"

Well, there are few things more funny, immature and tragic than Christianity.

As Voltaire put it about 300 years ago: "Christianity is the most ridiculous, the most absurd and bloody religion that has ever infected the world." ..and when he was in a lighter mood, he put it this way: "What! Have you no monks to teach, to dispute, to govern, to intrigue and to burn people who do not agree with them?"
