Google Sun Worship: "Be Not Evil!"

Google Sun Worship?
(Image from Christianity Today)

I've heard of sun worship, and I use Google religiously, but I've never heard of "Google Sun Worship." Apparently, however, the practice is controversial enough to warrant a critique at the ungodly hour of 9:00 a.m.!

Clearly, or rather unclearly, something is up, but I can't find out precisely what. I've tried Googling the expression "Google Sun Worship," but that mostly just returns me to this very post! Test it yourself.

What's Google trying to hide? The company that reminds itself to "Be Not Evil" and that has so very recently vacated China in an attempt to live up to that motto is now already -- during this Holy Week! -- involved in some heathen sun worship that we can't locate even using Google's Advanced Search Engine?

Talk about internet censorship!

I demand that Google come clean on its links to sun worship, so I call upon Larry Page and Sergey Brin to explain themselves here in the comments section of this Gypsy Scholar post.

My blog won't be difficult for them to find. It's a Blogspot blog . . . owned by Google.

I'd be very, very careful in choosing toes to step on Jeffery.

Remember the effort it took last time your blog got shut down.

But . . . but . . . JK, what you're implying would be such an evil thing for Google to actually do!

Great photo - Sun Worship is where it's at indeed, though I think you might find more about it at Google then at the 9AM sermon being advertised! A Freudian slip perhaps, bearing in mind the solar template around which Christianity was built?

Thanks, Mr. Sams, for joining me in my celebration of April 1st.

So you're using April 1st as a cover to broach the truth without getting "your blog shut down."

Clever man!

Well it is we should worship the sun!

I have to be 'clever', Mr. Sams, since my blog was shut down once for a week . . . though that seems to have been an unintentional error on the part of Google.

But I'm not really so clever. I'm just good at sounding that way.

Carter, that would be the glorious resurrection body, I presume.

The sun is actually one "god" I can actually see deserving of praise. Without it's warm rays of light, we'd be human popsicles.

Instead we worship gods that are petty and cruel, and continue to plague mankind with suffering.

But this video says TV theme song says it better than I can write it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-tyFqjfSIA&feature=related It's from Hercules: The Legendary Journeys.

But I haven't worshipped snakes yet, maybe they have the key to my salvation.

It looks like the gods continue to plague me with shoddy writing skills. The first "says" should have been omitted.

Here's the 15 year-old TV theme song link again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-tyFqjfSIA&feature=related

This is a great example of a theme song that explains everything you need to know about a show without ever having seen it before and also about the futility of religion in the process.

John, I've not trusted the sun god since that severe sunburn that I received as a child . . . but he's active, definitely!

By the way, links are easy to make if you follow the instructions under "Leave your comment."

That seems to have worked -- thanks to the miracle of technology.

My friend, the ones that posted that sign, must have forgotten to put a comma at the end of "google".
"Some questions can't be answered by Google.
Sun Worship. 9 A.M."

This must certainly be a reunion of some sort, to study the subject of "Sun Worship".

Maglor, your comma looks like a period!
