siberia User ID: 37081895 United States 03/31/2013 03:29 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So Google has Cesar Chavez recognized on Easter Sunday? My guess is that Eric Schmidt is following the wishes of the White House. In 2011, President Obama released a statement proclaiming March 31 “Cesar Chavez Day,” declaring, “I call upon all Americans to observe this day with appropriate service, community, and educational programs to honor Cesar Chavez’s enduring legacy.” Read more: [link to dailycaller.com] NOTE: A switch to Bing.com shows Easter eggs and is more aligned to where my head is this morning.

siberia User ID: 37081895 United States 03/31/2013 03:32 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | And this year... For Immediate Release March 29, 2013 Presidential Proclamation -- Cesar Chavez Day CESAR CHAVEZ DAY, 2013 - - - - - - - BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA A PROCLAMATION Every year, Americans all across our country pause on March 31 to remember a man who made justice his life's calling. Growing up the son of migrant farm workers who lost everything in the Great Depression, Cesar Chavez knew hard work and hardship from an early age. He labored long hours for little pay, taking odd jobs to help his family get by and forgoing a formal education to follow the crop cycles. But where others might have given up or given in, Cesar Chavez never lost hope in the power of opportunity. He lived each day by a belief as old as America itself -- the idea that with courage and determination, any of us can reach beyond our circumstances and leave our children something better. More than anything, we remember Cesar Chavez for lending voice to the voiceless. When no one seemed to care about the invisible farm workers who picked our Nation's food, beset by poverty and cheated by growers, a courageous man dedicated to dignity stood up and spoke out. Alongside Dolores Huerta and fellow organizers, he rallied a generation of workers around "La Causa," marching and fasting and boycotting for fair pay and protections on the job. They fought through decades of setbacks and fierce resistance. But through every trial, Cesar Chavez refused to curb his ambitions or scale back his hope. Step by step, march by march, he helped lead a community of farm workers to make the change they sought. [link to www.whitehouse.gov] "Even in Siberia there is happiness." — Anton Pavlovich Chekhov |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 28167778 United States 03/31/2013 03:59 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | great thread OP. Google is not a force for good in the world, but for the holding up of wrong. It tries each holiday to downplay any sense of morality, or good, or love of country, or God. Every time. That is why I never use Google, Bing works fine, as do other search engines like Dogpile. Google has set out to ignore God, and that is the truth. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 28167778 United States 03/31/2013 04:03 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | And for you morans out there, this issue is not about chavez, he can be showcased by google at any time. It IS about google's systematic, repeated ignoring of Christianity and morality. Don't tell me this is about Chavez. It is about the microscopic American flag google showed on the Fourth of July. Like leaving a 2-cent tip, it is worse than no tip at all. google hates America and God, look at any Christian or patriotic holiday on google. |

Nothing Google chooses to elevate or focus on surprises me any more. It is definitely a force for evil. And as for its tracking, well that is just one more facet of why it is best avoided.

Is it moral to instill institutionalized guilt on people? Is it moral to create a feeling of separation between people and God and make them feel like they will never atain godhood unless they follow that doctrine? Is it moral to instill shame on children when they're exploring their own sexual reality?(masturbation) Is it moral to tell people when they ask questions that all their answers are int he bible and use spiritual abuse in doing that? I laugh a bible belts christians. They don't realize half of the bible (king james) was put in there by popes in the 1400's and know nothing about astrotheology. There's nothing spiritual about christian religion. It's actually based on constantly trying to be perfect and denying or feeling guilty about your imperfections. it does nothing to create real intimacy with others and create a real relational spiritual experience, nor does it live in truth or love. It's just an institution. The only ones i respect and admire in the christian faith are those humanitarians who go out there to help the needy and missionaries. Other than that, most folks are hypocrites and so self deluded to ask that google honor "their" religion. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 1508300 Canada 03/31/2013 05:41 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The whole passion of the christ is supposed to be modelled after the story of the Egyptian god Osiris. Chrisyianity is based on old pagan traditions....especieally the Easter spring festival of fertility. Easter is always the first Sunday after the first full moon after the spring equinox....cant get more pagan than that. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 37186340 United States 03/31/2013 07:35 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So, google has literally chosen Caesar over Christ... with Caesar worship being performed in front of our eyes. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 12594543 Easter has nothing to do with Christ, you do realize this, right? It's time to put on your big boy pants and grow the fuck up.. And lastly, do you think your opinion on the matter is so fucking important that you had to start a thread instead of commenting in the extremely obvious existing thread pinned at the top of the page, you insignificant tool? You can look at the TIMES and this thread was BEFORE the pinned thread... ooops. |
