Google sued for aborting anti-abortion ad

Feeling Lucky is not a form of birth controlA UK-based anti-abortion organization just wants you to keep your baby — and their own high search ranking. So when the Christian Institute's ad for "news and views on abortion" was denied by Google on the grounds that it mingled religion too closely with anti-choice politics, they sued. It's not that Google doesn't ever take pro-lifers ads. Secularian anti-abortion site Stand Up, Girl turns up on searches for abortion, "abortion good," and "abortion wrong." All that Google's saying to the Christian Institute is that so long as Jesus stays on the sidelines, they're happy taking ads for fetusporn sites.
