    How come Google isn't offering suggestions for "Islam is" but it is for other religions?[^]

    I hope you realise that hamsters are very creative when it comes to revenge. - Elaine

        No, they aren't 'just another corporation'. They're an example of institutionalized arrogance. Goldman-Sachs was lambasted recently when one of their execs claimed they do 'God's work'. Sounds a lot like 'Do No Evil'. (insert puke emoticon)

          Hmm, interesting... There are a lot of quirks to that suggestion thing... If you want a good laugh, just type "Why " and see what pops up... Slightly disturbing.

            You seem to have missed my assumption where that's how pretty much all of these idiots work.

              That is interesting! I guess they are afraid of a holy war directed at them. Maybe it says more about Islam than it does about Google.

                Perhaps it speaks to Googles perception of Islam ?

                  Possibly, but blood thirsty idiots blowing people up and flying planes into buildings has me convinced otherwise. If Islam itself was more vocal in speaking out against and policing the so called extremists, maybe I would feel differently.

                    There's plainly an element in Islam that is bloodthirsty, but I always feel that acting and speaking as if they represent all of Islam, is a good way to marginalise Muslims and push them towards such extremist fringe elements. You know I'm a Christian, Islam is a wrong belief and a false God. That doesn't mean we need to assume they are all terrorists.

                      Maybe I'm missing something but when I put "Islam is" into Google, I get 3.1 million hits. If I put "Islam is bullshit", I get nearly 88,000. "Christianity is bullshit" does only slightly better at 97,000. :suss:

                                          Eternity with a bunch of religious nutters isn't my idea of heaven. I'd vastly prefer eternal slumber.
