[This "Christian Wiki" has a very long article on Homosexuality, including 50 references. It has no article on charity, one of the most important of Christian values. What's up with that?]
I'm not sure charity is a particularly theological concept.

I have given up on fundies reading the Constitution before putting shit into it that isn't there, but DAMN, you would think they'd read the Bible before making fools of themselves. Hey Stupidfly, read the damn "Sermon on the Mount" in the book of Matthew! I am really becoming convinced that fundies don't read anything by Jesus, just Paul and OT tirades.
@flipper - they apparently don't even read Paul ...
"And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity." (1 Corinthians 13:13)
"And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness." (Colossians 3:14)
I've only just taken a quick cruise through Conservapedia, but it doesn't seem to even claim it is a Christian site, and really doesn't seem to be. Rather, it is a politically conservative site.
Of the things I looked up, it had little to say on love, and nothing on sanctification or holiness. Much on abortion. Not a lot on feminism, but more on that than love. EXTREMELY slanted articles on both "Republican" and "Democrat."
There's this book, bit of an unbelievable plot but some enjoyable characters, that would disagree you. I can't remember what it's called though.
Something like "The Libel" or "The Bibliography". Something like that
Christianity is about charity and treating others how you would want to be treated. It's very important. Of course, to fundies, "sharing" sounds like "socialist" which sounds like "communism" which is, to them, "evil godless communism". So, to some fundies, sharing=godless communism.

I guess that explains the "Daily Bible verse" on the main page, then.

I was looking more at the overall theme of the site. I did, in fact see the discrete reference to Bible verses, but they call themselves "Conservative," as opposed to "Christian," and it is established to "balance" what they claim is a liberal bias, not a secular one. The articles on theological ideas are short and to the point, while political articles are signficantly longer and more thorough.
So, while yes, there are Bible verses on it, the general sense I got was that it was a political site--run by and for religious people, but focusing on politics.
Mling/Rebecca, Conservapedia was founded as a "resource" for home school children by Andrew Schlafly, son of Phyllis Schlafly. He believes that Wikipedia is against Christians, America, and conservatism.
In other words, he created a wiki in order to spread the propaganda he believes in, instead of relying on the neutral and factual aspects of Wikipedia!
You are a sad, sad excuse for a christian.
In behalf of all moderate and liberal christians everywhere, I apologize for these idiots.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
