So, a buddy of mine sent me this link to a Blame it on The Voices demotivational poster. I'll send you over there to see the whole thing, but here's a partial of it.
It goes on and on like that with Judaism, Buddhism, and Hinduism all with similar Google suggestions. Like, "Judaism is false" and "Hinduism is wrong".
But what of Islam? Islam is ....
And yes, I double checked Google to see if it was real. It is.
I'm pretty sure people have sent me something on this before in the past, and maybe we've covered it, but if we have let me just reiterate what I think is obviously going on here: Google is scared.
Because even if the suggestions are automatically generated based on a proprietary algorithm someone could get killed for suggesting that "Islam is Bullshit". Which is pretty good motivation for overriding the system.

Well. Islam is.
Right, but it really angers me as censorship is only when it comes to the violent religion, violence/terror pays...
If you want to feel better, type in “Mohammad is”
You get all sorts of good results: satan. false prophet. antichrist. in hell. dead.
OMG. Did I just call in a jihad on Google? Oops. My bad.
Thanks for the tip, BTW a johad on internet is not so bad... imagine if non of the Jihadists would ever use the net or smart-phones...
You can turn suggestions from the homosexuals off.
Try typing in “Koran is” (without quotes) and check out the suggestions.
(the suggestions are built on common searched phrases).
If you want something really fun, type in “Obama is”..
It works for me tho'. I typed "Islam is bullshit" and I got many lists from google: http://www.google.com/search?q=islam+is+bullshit&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-asource
I’m not a Christian but I’m really bothered by this.The rest of my family is Christian so it’s especially bothersome to me.
