It has been at least five years since Google placed a Google Easter logo around Easter time on their pages. This year is no exception, if you visit Google.com, you won't see a special Google logo or Doodle for Easter. As you can imagine, there are many people upset with Google over this lack of a logo. I have linked to threads and threads of people complaining below.
Bing, Ask.com and Dogpile have special logos and themes up for the day - Yahoo does not. Here they are:
Here are the past year logos from Easter 2009 and Easter 2008.
Happy Easter and here are the complaint threads.

The funny thing is most of the people bitching about the no Easter logo thing are failing to realize Easter is celebrated a week later in half the Christian world...

Ummm.. simon? Don't embarass your leftist cult any further by being emotional and using ad homs. Also, you should stop using late night comedy shows for your news sources, particularly when assessing Palin's capabilities. And yes, a corpse could run the country better than someone with OBAMA's "AGENDA." Next question?

Ummm simon.. I ummm forgot to comment on Libtard. Your note that many political philosophies exist in the world is irrelevant. The TARD stands as you'd have to be retarded to assume your liberal, socialist, motivation killing, ambition destroying, sloth rewarding ways are adequate. Don't delude yourself with examples of Denmark and Sweden either. I've got articles upon articles showing cracks in THEIR veneer.

Why should anyone go on a moralistic crusade because Google (which is, to my knowledge, a secular search-engine) neglected to put up a tiny Easter-themed logo on their home page? While it would be cute, Google is under no mandate to acknowledge every holiday with a special logo. Kindly take your self-righteous indignation elsewhere.

@Anon Anon is right, except for one instance where Google had a logo for Indian Holi Day, Google has been secular (with its logos). It took them awhile to cave into the "autocompletion" of text when typing "Islam is."

@XAN, it's not limited to the religious folks by any means. There are racial crusaders (and wannabe victims) who can find racism in a piece of wood that fell on the ground. Keep that in mind.

How is this complaint worthy? Google is a freakin' search engine... not a religious outlet. Nor does a special logo in any way enhance it's search features.

The proper Easter logo would have to incorporate a warning sign that said something to the effect of "Beware: Undead zombie Jesus has risen from the grave!"

You do realize that Google is not a subsidiary of your church nor a conservative politician's pet foundation, but rather a business that has the right to choose what it wants to put on its front page? All the horrible things that go on in the world, and this is where you direct your energy. I really hope you're just a troll and not just an a la carte Christian that whines about everything and does nothing.

I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall in the hallowed Board Room where the priest(s) of Secular Search determined Charlie Chapman's birthday was a significant event to commemorate with a Doodle, but Jesus' Resurrection was not. I don't know.... Just perhaps... it was out of respect for the gravity of the meaning of Easter that a nod to Jesus was omitted? Perhaps... the utter superficiality of Google's "Doodle" acknowledgments is a tacit statement: Thou Shalt Not Take The Name Of The Lord, Thy God, In Vain", thus honoring the third Commandment. After all... is not every Google Doodle the epitomy of the theologically vain? I, for one, am delighted that the Preachers and Promoters of the Seven Deadly Sins have spared us their "Doodle" interpretation of Easter! After all... To use Jesus for profit... That merits a hotter place in hell than just promoting Lady Gaga. And, I'm Sorry... If 'baby ducks' and 'baby bunnies' satisfies you as an acknowledgment of Easter... You are part of the problem. Or, rather, part of the Original condition Easter has relieved us of. There is darkness. And there is Light. We were made to be able to choose either. And... So there the rub. Google is still the best Bible Concordance on Earth, and in history. To all who _know_ the gravity of this day... God Bless You! To all you who deny it... God Bless You. HAPPY EASTER TO ALL!

This is really sad...they can put up Doodles for stupid days but a day like Easter is out of the question? Please...what's next? Christmas? They already don't do anything for Veteran's Day or Memorial Day...I don't see why this day is any different. Is it only Christians that celebrate these days?? I guess I'm out of the loop...I have many non-Christian friends and acquaintances that I know that still celebrate Easter with the eggs and their children searching for them and all that. Is religion there? No. So why is Google acting this way? Because they're jerks and realize that if they do put up a Doodle and people click it, it will give them search results to Christian websites on the true meaning of today. Actually...Easter is a pagan holiday that was transformed for Christians. It was used to celebrate the fertility god ester. People had orgies and all other types of stuff. In no way is it supposed to be for Christians so carry on Google. I'm switching to Bing although today they just have a chick hatching from an egg. Better than nothing I suppose. I gotta have some search engine and none of them are celebrating today.

I don't care what some of you say, this IS a CHRISTIAN NATION, always has been until some people have been to laid back about it. I'm sorry but we shouldn't be careing about the other religions feelings if they haven't got a doodle because oh wait I'm sorry last time I checked this was NEVER a MUSLIM or whatever other RELIGION. And yes it's good that other companys have a bunny or easter egg on their home page but to be honest is that what easter is all about, bunnies or chocolate, NO! This is a celebration of Jesus Christ being risen from the dead so maybe GOOGLE should have a cross or something like that, which is ACTUALLY about EASTER! It doesn't matter if a person from Iran or Islam or wherever gets affended (which many actually don't care) this is our country we have LET you in, this ISN'T your country so get used to our culture because we wouldn't stick a massive cross in your country but it's ok for you to put YOUR Mosques over here? And you even had the cheek to want to put a mosque on the 9.11 twin towers memorial, hmmm.. getting out of control don't you think?!?!???? GOOGLE isn't being smart about this many christians are getting enraged about this and this IS OUR religion, our countries religion!!!!!!!!!!!!

04/26/2011 10:02 am
This is a christian nation though not anyother religions nation. Easter is a celebration of Jesus Christ and they have to realise that it's our culture, we don't try and change theirs. They don't stop celebrating things in they're country because we don't like it, its their religion AND THIS IS OURS! We should even have to have this debate, this is more inportant to our country that darwins birthday or the person who made the trains birthday. And if they are willing to show Darwins birthday that shows a little of what they care about because he was a total athiest and even if some aren't athiests; many people can get upset about showing his birthday because of what he was about, but no-ones cares about that, but they care if other religions get upset. And for your information Darwin became a christian on his death bed and said that all he had proclaimed was wrong. Thats shows that even someone like him can become a christian so they must of been something that is right in christianity. WHAT MAKES MORE SENSE we came from a sudden explosion in the sky and thats a bang and blob of jelly made humans and animals and the earth and thee way of life, sorry a blob of jelly isn't that clever. Also science says that everything comes from something but they can't tell us where the bang came from, God making us and the earth sounds more realistic?! CHRISTIANITY = biggest religion in the world! BIBLE = biggest selling book in the world! That shows how many christian people there are in this world not just our country, so yes it is a big thing that they don't think it's right to put it as a logo.

**offended. If you're gonna get on here and bash people for their beliefs, learn to spell and not look like a complete knucklehead. Oh, and this IS NOT a Christian nation. Every one has the freedom of religion here and they may worship however they want. Get over yourself and start to think about other peoples' feelings before your own. You are extremely ignorant; stop stereotyping religions and people of a certain faith. Not every Muslim is bad just because they have extremists or because they don't believe the same way as you. Oh, and a lot of people care is someone gets offended. think of it from their point of view. How would you feel if a religion that isn't the one that you are a part of was advertised all over the place and you couldn't be part of it. I think you would feel left out if Google did an Easter logo and not one for your religion. I cant believe that you are that ignorant to bash someone else's beliefs and descisions because they don't worshiip the way you do.

I understood that most Americans identified themselves as Christians, and that the founding fathers are believed by most to have established the nation on Christian principles. But I agree that there is freedom of religion. Perhaps those working at Google do not want the site to be associated with Christianity. Personally I think that sad, and not a sensible marketing strategy - at least for Google.com -but it is a free country. By the way, not everyone can spell or punctuate perfectly, as can be seen from your own post, and there is little to be gained by describing people as knuckleheads, or extremely ignorant if you are wanting to win them over to your views.

If Google chooses to avoid religious symbolism in their logo's, that's fine with me as long as they stick to it with ALL religion. I do find it odd though that Google chooses to avoid religious symbolism yet delves into politics. I expect they both have the potential to stir up the same type of negativity.

Sorry, but YOU are the ignorant one. This IS a Christian nation, was and always should be. Just like the language is English. Though our country is special because we allow people from all over to come here and be free - there is still a standard. Yes you can speak other languages and worship as you would like, but the CORE of the nation is Christian, English speaking people and those that have any self respect or any respect for our country will realize that and learn the language and expect to see the Christian symbols and holidays. We do not get offended if someone has a Menorah in their window or wears a Muslim ḥijāb - so atheists and worshipers of other religions need to accept that and know that we will not change. Other countries have other languages and religions that dominate and have been associated with the country for a long time - and if I was visiting those countries I would not be offended if I see religious symbology that was not my own or was forced to speak a language that is not my native tongue. When in Mexico, English speaking people do their best to speak Spanish, in Brazil, Mexicans visiting speak Portuguese. For Google to represent every lame ass ridiculous day on the calendar, but then blatantly ignore Easter is a slap in the face to all America and especially the Christians here (the majority). Google is either run by a bunch of Jews or Atheists, or are too cowardly to face those that oppose Christian freedom of speech. Lame ass move Google, you should be ashamed of yourselves.

Then let them put up logos for all the various religious holidays and days of significance! They obviously need some help coming up with themes and logos that are customized for each day - I mean give me a break - todays (technically yesterdays) was for the 115th anniversary of some dead dancer chick ... really?!?! Including ALL would be much less offensive than excluding the most important. YOU, my friend should think before calling others retarded - as since you have no regard for punctuation or capitalization - you seem much less intelligent than the majority of those posting on this page.

If someone speaks out against gays they are assholes, but its totally fine to bash Christians and rip them apart. To be honest I am going to enjoy watching all you that refuse to believe once the appropriate time comes, groveling and wishing you acted differently. This has ALWAYS been a Christian nation, and that is part of what makes it great. Even the Native Americans were visited by Christ. We are not excluding other beliefs, but refuse to let the rest of you exclude what we believe in - partly because once it is all said and done you will realize we are right and will wish you never doubted or resisted the truth: Christ died for our sins so that we could be forgiven for ours. Without him we are nothing. Good luck trying to find a way around it.

It is not that we hate you, but that we pity you and do not want to see your ignorance and cancerous viewpoints spread to more people that will end up suffering, rather than living forever - happily and in God's presence.

No no no no, I'm a Christian. I just hate when people discriminate against others and believe that the way they worship is the only way and everything else is stupid or not worthwhile. I mean, yeah, some of my posts may seem anti-Christian, but I'm just trying to show some of these close-minded people aren't thinking everything through. I would love to see an Easter doodle on Google. Not just eggs, but the actual meaning of Easter. Some of these peoples' arguments are extremely invalid.

A "glorified" zombie, at that. Glorified not in the sense that other people put importance to Him resurrected, but rather in the sense that He was in "glorified form". And there is no shooting Jesus after that, no running away. In fact, He attracts. He doesn't hunger for human flesh, but he hungers for human souls to join Him in His love. There is no mindlessness in Jesus resurrected. He is very different than what most people call zombies.

I have to admit, I am surprosed that there is no Easter Doodle. Google acknowledges events that range from culturally significant to seemingly insipid, and every holiday under the sun seems to get its moment..... except for Easter. Google, what exactly is the reason for this omission?
Ross Harrison
04/08/2012 03:54 pm
Technically this is a free society and google is a "supposedly" private entity so no one should be able to force them to do anything they don't want to. However, that being said, when they acknowledge things like Uri Gagarin's birthday over major Holidays like Easter that's clearly intentional and they have to know that's a slight to all their customers who celebrate that day. Truthfully that's bad business sense, or it would be if not for the fact that they have a virtual monopoly on the search engine biz.
Thats why

It is funny that people show such disdain for christians. I believe this stems from a lack of understanding about the story of Christ. I remember once when my uncle who happened to have been a Lt. Colonel in the USMC and who rarely talked about the war or told any war stories of any kind relayed an observation he made while climbing down the side of the ship he was on into the landing craft which was to take him to the beachhead on Iwo Jima. He said that all morning most of the men were staying silent and repeating prayers to themselves under their breath. All the men except for the atheists on board who had scoffed at the notion of a higher being. Until it came to crunch time in which the men had to climb down the nets into the landing craft. My uncle noticed that the same ignorant agnnostics and atheists were praying like there was no tomorrow, especially after the continued bombardment from the big battleships was making mincmeat out of the beach that they would soon be embarking for in the distance. The one thing God offers all of us is hope, and we should all recognize this not on just the holiday but throughout the year. Even if google doesn't place a little logo of a cross or an Easter bunny on it's web cover.

That's true, I've heard similar stories too, I've seen people praying to God after they'd been diagnosed with a serious illness despite of being atheists. Even Christopher Hitchens when asked if he'd changed his mind about God he said "No evidence or argument has yet been presented which would change my mind - but I like surprises” which shows he was still clinging on to some hope he had left. No faces death head on.

I liken this argument to my view of people who burn our flag. Sure we have the right to burn the flag, as detestable as that is, but I wouldn't want the right to burn the flag taken away. It is a right protected under the constitutions 1st amendment of free speech. Would I burn the flag, Hell No! I value our freedoms more than anything. If some people don't agree with christianity, so be it. It makes no difference to me. But please back off with the denigrating and belittling comments about religion. It is really ugly on people who do that.

Hoping for something doesn't make it real. Every day I hope that tomorrow I will be a millionaire. That doesn't mean it's going to happen. When a person has a belief in spontaneous money generation, that's nice for them. It's useful to have a sense of hope and happiness, even if it's demonstrably a crazy belief to have. But don't expect anyone to take you seriously when you say "This time tomorrow, Rodney, we'll be millionaires!" It's neither a productive way to approach your finances nor one which might actually lead to making money.

Also, kids use this as a search engine and they would like to see something other than what is currently posted.

As Chrsitians we were never taught our road in life would be easy. Stay strong, keep the faith and do not, I repeat, do not let the seculars take over our nation that is based on strong faith regardless of what some say. History speaks for itself.

It appears that you are trying to suggest we celebrate a more-modern down-to-Earth hero than Jesus for Easter? Traditions die hard; you're only losing good and loyal followers with a stunt like this.

I get that google is an independent company, but its pretty insensitive that they don't show Easter. Normally they do the most important thing taking place that day, which today, just happens to be Easter. But instead they are celebrating Caesar Chavez's birthday, because so many people celebrate that (sarcasm). When you are willing to have a standard on every other day but Easter and to then ignore it, its pretty annoying to those who celebrate Easter. They could at least have done a secular doodle, like rabbits or something. And all the people on here complaining about Christian hypocrisy, are being hypocrites themselves. And what does spelling have to do with intelligence. Niels Bohr (I think) had to have his mother right some of his papers as he dictated them, because his handwriting and spelling were so bad. So what makes you any smarter than another person just because your typing skills are better, or because you can more easily type your thoughts down in a concise manner. But seriously, Google not doing an Easter doodle is kind of offensive to celebrators of that holiday, just because it doesn't offend you, doesn't mean that it doesn't offend someone else (@8c7988cd3281e6cb6257a770f8c76093:disqus @5370a9847c6a48dece4b2858015be712:disqus and others)

Dude are you serious? Who cares that they dont have a logo for Christians. Do you really expect the world to honor Christ? Stop complaining. Its exactly what Jesus warned about, dont be so surprised or offended. The world crucified Him, dont expect it to glorify Him without knowing Him. And youre not making a good name for anyone representing Jesus' name with your dishonoring comments either. Jesus didnt come to have fun and dance around with those already saved, He came and died for those that hated, denied, and killed Him. He came humbly, honoring everyone with love, and you are called to do the same, even with foreign immigrants. This country cant be considered a nation of any religion. You cant decide what a nation is by majority, only Christ can judge, and He looks at individual hearts, not the amount of cathedrals, church buildings or crosses posted on hills next to the freeway. Stop your rampage ranting, its not helping anyone, and not turning anyone to Jesus for salvation is it? Jesus would wash even a muslims feet, dont forget He died for them too. Theyre no different from any other human being.

Can you blame them? They were scared! A lot of people do things that they wouldn't normally do when they are scared. It didn't make Christians who had been praying their whole lives better than the atheists...it just meant that the fear component of the atheists' brains were activated, causing them to start praying without reasoning through it. There are many people in this world who are religious due mainly to fear--fear of death, fear of no purpose, fear of the unknown happening to them, fear of not being loved, fear of going somewhere bad when they die, etc. Just because the fear came out in those people during that awful time doesn't mean they were hypocritical in nature. It's a natural human reaction to be scared of something and to have our non-reasoning, instinctual aspects of our brains take over. It has nothing to do with God--it has everything to do with doing what it took to make themselves feel as if they were going to survive. When they were able to fully reason again, I am sure most went back to not believing. The Christians were not better in that situation; they just so happened to have claim to a common coping mechanism.

Yes, a large portion of this Nation is christian, and yes we were based off of a Christian viewpoint. However, a lot of these principles that this Nation was based off of are MORALS, I bet you that in almost every single religion, killing isn't acceptable -- my point is that even though we were started by Christians, our country is not defined by any religion. And, Google is a private company and they are not required to cater towards anyones specific needs... So chill out.

For many people, Easter (like Christmas) is a "national" or an "international" holiday more than a "religious" holiday. EVERYONE knows it's Easter (or Christmas) and MANY non-Christians take part in the non-religious activities associated with the holiday. It seems there are Doodles for many holidays, birthdays, inventions, authors, performers, and who-knows-what-else that mean absolutely nothing to most people, so we're used to seeing Doodles that very often have "meaning", but what do we see on Easter (and Christmas)? No indication that it's even a holiday. WHY can't Google have a Doodle for Easter (or Christmas) - even if it's just eggs, baskets, flowers, and bunnies (or trees and presents)? In trying soooo hard to not offend the hyper-sensitve minority, Google has effectively insulted the rest of us.
You're wrong, and here's why
04/01/2013 06:06 am
Wrong. "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion" - First Amendment, US Constitution "the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion" - John Adams, Founding Father and 2nd President of the United States We also don't have a national language. Oh, and yeah: Sergey Brin and Larry Page, co-founders of Google, are Jewish and irreligious/atheist, respectfully. Neither is a Christian. And don't go running to Bing, either. Bill Gates is an agnostic/atheist.

Google has also removed shopping results for firearms and disrespected the previous president by allowing you to type "Failure", click "I'm feeling lucky", and taking you to the whitehouse.gov page with Georg Bush's picture on it. Why can't they just stick to being a search engine, quit making friendly trips to North korea, and make a droid phone that doesn't SUCK!!!

I think it is time for the public to become "we the people". If Google has no respect, then why should we? Time to find other providers.

So well put, I wish more Christians had humble hearts like you. I love your insight into how difficult it is for a world who doesn't know Jesus to glorify Him. That is where we need to start. A logo will not get us far...Our hearts will carry us much further.

Bing had a beautiful display of easter eggs (some had crosses painted on them) Easter 2013. What is COOL about an egg? An egg can help explain the TRINITY: There are 3 parts to an egg: The shell, the white, the yolk. One egg -- three parts. Google insulted 2 billion Christians on Easter 2013 with their political doodle.
