Q: Did you make this website because you hate Google?
A: No! In fact, I like Google a lot! I particularly like Google's tool bar. If you don't already have the Google tool bar - you can download it for free HERE.

Q: Do you think Google hates religious people?
A: No! Google is merely a search engine that lists stuff found on other websites. Google can't be held responsible for what other people put on their websites.

Q: Do you work for Google?
A: No.

Q: How did you get your results?
A: I entered the following phrases (including quotes) into Google's search engine: "Christians people are known for", "Muslims are known for", "Buddhists are known for", etc... I then listed the things that came after the "are known for" part.

Q: There was some very hateful/ignorant things on your list! Why did you include them?
A: I wanted to accurately show the results for each search on Google. Editing out offensive things would defeat that purpose.

Q: How did you decide what to list and what not to list?
A: I used the same rules that I used for "Google Your Race":
1) I would NOT edit the content of what I found. Regardless if it was stupid, hateful, racist, inaccurate or even misspelled - I would list it as shown.
2) I would skip a search result if it was repetitive. If it said the EXACT same thing as an earlier quote - I'd skip it.
3) I would not list something that did not make sense. For example, if the result was something strange like "I longbow that asian people are known for the and online like too that." I would skip it.
4) I left it up to my own discretion as to how I listed something with an odd sentence structure such as "It has never been widely believed that humans are known for not being great."

Q: Why did you make this website?
A: To generate traffic and have fun.

Q: How come "Christians" were listed first? Do you hate them more?
A: What!?! No! The religions are listed from most popular to least popular.

Q: I'm a member of the ______ religion. How come my people were not listed?
A: I only included the most popular religions and did not bother to segregate them into sub-religions. For example I did not separate Christians into Catholics, Protestants, Anglicans, etc...

Q: I'll have you know that the ______ religion has over 5,000,000 worshipers world wide! How can you say that is not popular?!?!
A: Sure, that's popular. But that does not put it in the category of "most popular". For the purposes of this project I decided that a religion needed at least 12,000,000 adherents to get listed.
For those of you who are interested - here are the estimated populations of the most popular religions worldwide:
Christians ------------------------- 2,116,909,552
Muslims --------------------------- 1,282,780,149
Hindus -------------------------------- 856,690,863
Buddhists ---------------------------- 381,610,979
Sikhs ------------------------------------ 25,139,912
Jews ------------------------------------- 14,826,102
All Others ---------------------------- 814,146,396
Non-Religious ----------------------- 801,898,746
Atheists ------------------------------- 152,128,701

Q: Why did you include "Atheists"? That's not a religion.
A: Picky-Picky!

Q: I did my own searches for "_______ are known for" and found completely different stuff! Why?
A: Did you remember to include the quotes?

Q: Even when I include the quotes, my own search results for "_______ are known for" are completely different. Why?
A: I did my "Google Your Religion" searches on July 26st 2006... Google is constantly updating and changing. So search results can vary dramatically from one day to the next.

Q: Why are there some irrelevant images shown on some pages?
A: Google is a great search engine, but it is not infallible. That is why a search in Google's image search for " Christians " can result in something irrelevant like a drawing of a pretty woman. Or the image search results for "Atheists" can include a photo of some guy at a bus stop.

Q: I'm offended by your website! Some day God will punish you for this blasphemy and you will burn for all eternity in the fires of hell!
A: That is not a question.

Q: How do you respond to people, like me, who are offended by your website and warn you that "...God will punish you for this blasphemy and you will burn for all eternity in the fires of hell!"?
