A Google searcher named Steve posted in the Google Web Search Help forums asking why does Jesus Christ not get a knowledge graph result for the search terms [jesus] or [jesus christ] but other religious figures do?
Searches for Moses, Muhammad, Buddah and many other religious figures all have knowledge graph results. Why not Jesus?
Here are pictures:
But Jesus is not worthy?

Maybe Jesus needs to use Google+ But seriously, Jesus or Jesus Christ are often used as expletives rather than describing the person. So maybe knowledge graph is thrown off by that and won't show JC as an entity.

First the crucifixion, now this? JC can't catch a break it seems.

You think "Muhammad" and "Moses" are used more in common conversation than "Jesus Christ"?

Really? Can't remember the last time someone used Gautama Buddha as an expletive. Buddha, Barry! Get it together man!

I find it interesting that you used "Jesus Christ" and not "Jesus" when you used single words for the rest.

Common words "jesus christ" or "holy moses" or even "holy shit" Holy shit can be used interchangeably between Mohammad, Moses, Buddha, Jesus or any other holier than thou action figure

It also excludes SATAN, which is another holier than thou action figure attached to the Christian persuasion. Jesus and Satan were never mentioned in Torah, so kudus to Google for not mentioning them. I like Google more very day!

There is a knowledge graph for Jesus but you have to be using a blessed internet connection to see it. If you don't see it then you must be a guideline breaking web spammer.

Speaking of holy figures, I wonder if St Durante (wmw editorial guy) will ever be included on the knowledge graph!?

It's interesting if you look at the Freebase classifications that Jesus is the only one that has a common "Notable For" value. The others include known Knowledge Graph panel types such as Religious Leader and Military Commander. This might be something to consider...

Uh no, all Muslims wear the same so that doesn't mean he looks like that, he doesn't has a face, or he had one but it was years ago so they couldn't probably capture it

Muhammad started the Muslim faith, so originally he wasn't a Muslim. Same as the religion prior to Jesus were not Jews.
