More Google censorship

They just love Islam
"Google's search engine returns common results to most queries as you type. But the "don't be evil" company appears to be censoring its results when it comes to Islam.

Type a few words into the search field on Google's home page and the engine automatically returns a helpful list of popular, similar searches for the words you've typed in so far -- a convenient way to find the right information.

Enter "Christianity is" and you'll find results that, while offensive, at least indicate common discussions on the Internet. Likewise, type "Judaism is" and Google suggests other, potentially offensive searches such as "Judaism is false" and "Judaism is not a race."

But type "Islam is" into the search engine and Google's auto-results pane mysteriously vanishes, leading some to conclude that Google, whose mantra is "don't be evil," is censoring its search results.

This is simply another example of where google really stands politically.

But you can type in "Muslim is" and get some alternatives. Since this topic first came out last week, the number of alternative searches have been getting locked down.

Google, the slippery slope of PC search engine censorship. They must be a liberal company since they aren't for free expression. Don't they help China censor their version of the browser too?

Yes they do, and all with the blessing of one of their "major" shareholders, Al (we've only got days to live) Gore.

Obviously Christians are going to have to start cutting off a few heads to get fair treatment from Google.....
