The Theory of Relativity is one of Albert Einstein's most famous contributions to modern day science. Yet, the scientist and his theory are now being labeled as a "Liberal Conspiracy Against Jesus" by Andy Schlafly.Andy Schlafly is the son of Phyllis Shlafly, the founder of Conservapedia, the ideologically oriented alternative to Wikipedia.The direct entry on Conservapedia reads:"...The theory of relativity is a mathematical system that allows no exceptions. It is heavily promoted by liberals who like its encouragement of relativism and its tendency to mislead people in how they view the world. ... Virtually no one who is taught and believes relativity continues to read the Bible, a book that outsells New York Times bestsellers by a hundred-fold.Despite censorship of dissent about relativity, evidence contrary to the theory is discussed outside of liberal universities. ... Some liberal politicians have extrapolated the theory of relativity to metaphorically justify their own political agendas. For example, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama helped publish an article by liberal law professor Laurence Tribe to apply the relativistic concept of "curvature of space" to promote a broad legal right to abortion. ... Applications of the theory of relativity to change morality have also been common. ... The Theory of Relativity enjoys a disproportionate share of federal funding of physics research today..."
