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.

They DID remember to marke Islamic holidays... don’t forget - or fall for this left-handed apology.

The must be taking some serious heat. I have taken Google off as my defautl search engine and switched to Bing. I’ll try them for a while.

Does anyone want or need instructions on how to remove google?

Problem is that they don't have such a policy.

I seem to recall several years or more ago they did a special "doodle" logo for Ramadan or some other special Islamic day.

Could be I'm mistaken but I'm almost certain it was a topic of discussion here at the time.

But didn’t they do a kwanza and an eid al-fitr doodle?

However Socialism is a religion, where Man is god.

So the doodle was indeed religious.
