The search engine site Google has banned an ad from a religious group questioning homosexual "marriage":
Google has banned a Christian organization's advertisements promoting its stance against homosexuality, saying the group promotes "hate."
Stand to Reason, a nonprofit apologetics organization, says its "AdWord" advertisement on Google recently was pulled down. ...
[Director of Operations for Stand to Reason Melinda] Penner countered via e-mail [to Google]: "Your suspension of our advertisement illegitimately excludes one side of the [same-sex marriage] debate. If you deem the issue itself off limits, then consistency would require you to suspend all searches of the issue. Instead, your search criteria return links to sites strongly advocating same-sex marriage. …"
You will pretty much always find it the case that when a company (or government) seeks to be "neutral" on an issue that will pretty much automatically be defined as excluding a Christian or moral viewpoint. Now that's evil.
