"Kosher" search engine unveiled for devout Jews

A censored search engine called "Koogle" enables devout Jews to search the Internet without fear of running into objectionable material, such as photos of women or bacon. It also blocks users from buying anything online on the Jewish Sabbath. The site has Hebrew and English versions.

I tried it -- I clicked on the English version and typed in Jesus. The result: Page not found.

Jesus isn't Kosher!

I'm not Jewish, but I'm glad Hasidic Jews in Israel have a search engine they can use and still maintain their standards of purity. Many practicing Christians all over the world install filtering software on their own computers with the same idea. However one achieves it, preventing temptation is a good thing.
