I give Google a lot of credit here. They were good enough to retract their heinous snub of Easter.

Google tracks everything you do, too. Ditch them.

I know this may be going against the grain of this thread, but if Google has a policy of not doing these “doodles” for any religious holiday, then I’m OK with them not doing one for Easter or Christmas. And while having the Chavez doodle on Easter was not a good idea, I’m not offended by it. There are plenty of reasons to dislike Google — don’t get me wrong — but I can’t get too worked up about this.

I smell BS.

They are only apologizing because they got caught (in effect)

This was a DELIBERATE EFFORT on their part to ignore Easter- not some inadvertent slip-up.

Their “mistake” was dropping the veil and revealing that they are anti-Christian communists.

Lefties know they can’t do that “out in the open”, YET.

No they weren’t. They knew exactly what they were doing and they flaunted everyone with it. They are socialists who cooperate with this Gestapo government of ours because they have ideology in common. They cared nothing about Easter, Jesus or any of the religious significence.

They are just doing a half-hearted “my bad” just like a bully who says the perfunctory apologies when caught. Screw them.

We at Google honor Easter...

"...and we should've had images of bunnies, eggs, and chocolate candies, instead."

Google Apologizes to Christians For Easter Cesar Chavez ‘Doodle’

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Oh Geez. Its April Fools day. And so we begin with the tricks and jokes.

Or in Google’s case - a false, bogus and forced apology.

To Google Suits: We ignore what you say, and believe only what you do. Just the same way we do with politicians.

Concur. I am pleasantly surprised and appreciate their acknowledgment of the error.

Why would the “newly elected Pope” chime in on this? Is this satire?

in any way upstaged this Holy Christian Holiday.

Upstage? Jesus? Really? Do they think they could "upstage" Jesus even if they wanted to? 100s of millions of people come together to worship the risen Lord yesterday. A few thousand bitched about their punk web site.

Oh give me a break.
You don't actually think this is a sincere apology do you?

I don't. It was an intentional act. They're only apologizing because of all the negative publicity.

Gosh, this is an even better use of weasel words than the usual “If anyone was offended we deeply apologize” non-apology.
