It's cowardly or cowardice not cowardliness. And these images exemplify ignorance not cowardice. Please revise and resubmit :)
I think the poster means that it's cowardly that Google won't give any suggestions when Islam is the search query.
I think you should try, and you will see google says nothing for Christianity, judaism or Hinduism... FAKE
Actually, no it isn't bullshit, presidentduweb. I just tried it and got the same results as pictured above.
I hope people realize google just suggests the most commonly searched items similar to what you type in.
Wow... not sure that this is cowardice, but meh... there's no reason that those results should not be displayed.
I can only assume that Google did that deliberately.
it's google...the smartest guys in the room (aka universe)...this isn't just by chance - for those who think it only shows common searches...good find!
Not many take risk of searching anything to do with islam, you might just end up surrounded by suited CIA agents complete with shades entered breaking the windows :)
Just for interests sake, Google search gives the same results for 'Atheism is...' as it does for Christianity, Judaism, etc.
I just tried it and got the same results as pictured above. Looks like Google is deferential to Islam.
Never did like Google.
Just tried it and got the same results.
For shits & giggles, I tried "Mohammed is" and "Jesus is".
"Jesus is" comes back with positive suggestions, while "Mohammed is" comes back with a couple decidedly negative ones.
Posted them in case Google realizes that "Mohammed is" suggests "the antichrist". I could see them taking ones like that off their suggestion lists (like a while back when "jews" came back with some very negative suggestions).
Photos of same results here, plus Mohammed is & Jesus is results.

google is : how I form my opinions
Read this, per the article
"..Google says it’s just a software problem.
“This is a bug and we’re working to fix it as quickly as we can,” a Google spokesman told Wired.com."

If you leave off the word "is" then Google suggests things for Islam just fine. You can sit around all day and type things into the search bar until you get the result you want. If I type "Islam says" I get suggestions but if I type "christianity says" I get none.
GOOGLE is cowardice
It said the same thing about islam as it did all the rest
