I don't know if this is true, but it wouldn't surprise me...

Not a “reason to homeschool,” but a heads up for all parents of small children out there.

The words Jesus, God, and Allah are blocked. At first, I was thinking maybe the producers didn’t want anyone cursing. But, the word Christianity is blocked, and the words Islam and Muslim aren’t blocked. Maybe the producers want to allow slurs about Islam. ;-)

But, guess what - GEORGE BUSH is blocked!

I don’t think we should complain about it. With certain words blocked, children are unable to type negative comments about them. I noticed negative comments are not blocked for the words that are not blocked.

Here was my attempt. The blocked word was in fact quite vulgar. Image and video hosting by TinyPic

If someone is really determined, they can just split banned words into two or more unrecognizable parts creating text in different places on the screen and then click the move option and slide the boxes together to make one word. :)

I just tried this from my home laptop, and the words "Merry Christmas" (and any variation thereof), "Jesus," "Pope" and "Blessed" were blocked.

I'll be registering my complaint.

“muslim” went through, “christian” didn’t. “catholic” also went through.

Strange.

I just tried it out, and it didn't ban any words for me. I even typed a couple profanities that would make a sailor blush.

I'm using the newest version of firefox.
