Excerpt:

Google has denied favouring Islam over other religions in its suggested searches, after allegations that phrases criticising the faith had been censored.

Typing "Christianity is" or "Buddhism is" into the search engine's home page generates a range of offensive suggestions for how the user might wish to complete their query.

These include "not a religion", "a cult", "fake" and "bull----". Few of the suggested searches are positive or neutral.
