Karajou

Karajou is the username of Brian MacDonald, a sysop on the fundementalist Christian blog, Conservapedia. Karajou is one of the more high-ranking sysops and acts as the Darth Vader to Andrew Schlafly's Palpatine. He could be considered the dumb muscle of Conservapedia. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer but what he lacks in intellect he makes up for in vanity. MacDonald was a low-ranking officer of the US navy who was discharged for incompetence.



==On Conservapedia==

Karajou appears to be immune from the "Use the first letter of the first name followed by your last name" rule for usernames as by no stretch of the imagination is Karajou a contraction of Brian McDonald. He is known for his over-enthusiastic love of blocking users, often immediately after they register, usually because of geographic location. If you're from "Liberal Britain" (a monarchy, ruled by the head of the Anglican Church and governed by a Conservative party), say "bye-bye." His block reasons tend to be a mixture of "Liberal, vandal, troll" with some snark occasionally thrown in. Despite his cantankerous nature, Karajou possesses a certain, bitter, cynical sense of humour. His overdeveloped trigger finger earned him the Banhammer award from User:RobSmith who has now been blocked by none-other than Karajou, an irony which did not escape ConserVader himself. Karajou seems to police Conservapedia nineteen hours a day with only five hours sleep. Presumably his wife knows her place as the housekeeper because Karajou himself seldom leaves his command centre.

Karajou supported Andrew Schlafly in his disastrous handling of the FBI affair and blocked anyone who asked questions. After being innocently told that users were interested in how the situation was progressing, Karajou menacingly asked "And which users are interested at this time?" before blocking the users in question. Karajou later defended Schlafly's unnecessary bothering of the FBI, stating "if they were nothing more than mere vandals, I would never have contacted the FBI."



==Personal life==

Karajou served in the US navy for twenty years and was a veteran of the Gulf War where he was a general Master-at-arms without any specialisations. He served four assignments in the Mediterranean sea, one in the Western pacific ocean and one assignment with the US Navy training deployment along the South African coast however he was not in the Naval airforce. Given Karajou's inflated sense of self-importance, it is unlikely that he was in any battles as he would have undoubtedly boasted about it, so evidence suggests that for all this time, he merely sat in a boat out to sea. In addition to his regular job as an MA, he was a recruiter whose job was to encourage ex-soldiers to re-enlist. Karajou was a Petty Officer who over the course of his career never rose higher than E6 ranking and was discharged for failing to progress after twenty years.



He was educated in the Recruit Training Centre at the Great Lakes Naval Station and the Sonar 'A' School Fleet Antisubmarine Warfare Training Center, Pacific, San Diego. His service record lists service on the Samuel Gompers and Shenandoah destroyer tenders respectively, neither of which possessed any sonar, despite his education at the Sonar 'A' School, suggesting that he was a mediocre soldier at best or that his education wasn't enough to make into a meaningful career. Towards the end of his service, Karajou served aboard the O'Bannon anti-submarine ship.



==Religion==

Like all sysops on Conservapedia, Karajou believes in Conservapedia's historical revisionist version of The Bible that omits crucial parts of the text including the Logos John 1:1, the Epistle to the Hebrews and the story of Jesus and the Woman Taken In Adultery.

Like most Conservapedians, Karajou becomes enraged if The Bible is ever questioned, suggesting quite a fragile foundation of faith. When User:Jamesmackenzie pointed out the obvious ridiculousness of believing the theory of remnants of the Ark existing, Karajou, in his characteristic condescending tone responded, "You, Jamesmackenzie, are going to scour the area once known as the Kingdom of Urartu, which now is occupied by eastern Turkey, northern Iraq, and northwestern Iran, and I don't care how you do it. You can use Google-Earth or take a jet to do some hiking, but you are going to go over every square foot of that ground before you carry on with your opinion in this website. That is the only way I will accept from you the proof needed that the ark doesn't exist." Whether or not Karajou himself was willing to do this in order to prove his hypothesis, was left ambiguous.



Karajou is a harsh critic of Scientific fact, asking why, if physics created the universe, can severely disabled atheist scientist Stephen Hawking "get out of his wheelchair?"

<p class="MsoNormal">He also dislikes people of other faiths, telling former Conservapedia sysop DeanS that he would go to Hell for being a Mormon instead of a Christian.

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">* ''And still you whine like a little baby, upset that you caused your own blocking. Tell me your home address so I can mail you a box of Pampers...maybe your diapers need changing.''

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">* ''It was physics - and not God - that created the universe, according to scientist Hawking.

<p class="MsoNormal">Now, I wanted to put my question to him in this fashion on the main page, but it possibly might cause an uproar: "Stephan [sic] Hawking says God wasn't involved in creating the universe; it was physics. Well, Steve, if you know that much about the universe, then try getting out of your wheel chair!"''

<p class="MsoNormal">* ''I did explain to him some months back, and I thought I was being nice about it, is that a practicing Mormon will go to Hell for Joseph Smith, rather than go to Heaven for Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, he took it the wrong way and got upset.''
