On the right top corner of Google, there is a "Settings" link, click on that to change your Search Settings.
On the Search Settings page, under Safe Search Filtering section check the "Do not Filter My Search Results" option to see if it helps. I generally select "Do Not use Google Instant" option as well but that is up to you.
PS. I use dogpile which is an accumulative search engine.

A search engine by its very nature provides filtered and biased results based on a very complicated algorithm. Do a search for SEO (search engine optimization). A SE takes into account many things for what and where it will place a site in it's index. There is a war going on behind the scenes between most webmasters to achieve the top results and get the most traffic form Google and other SE's.
The question becomes are the SE's applying their rules blindly. Most are going to follow that route since it's the foundation of any good SE. When a SE begins manipulating results outside of the blind results they won't be in business for very long.
its is true.. Google and a lot of these search engines work with the corrupt goverment, who are trying to hide and filter out information from reaching the public.. I hate all of this corruption.. New World Order.. All of these people who control the world, and the naive public who allow it, because they are ignorant.. Open your eyes people, we are experimented mice also,
I'd ask for details, but that would take the thread in a direction that's off-topic for this forum. IMO, it's far more likely to be a security measure, to avoid angering jihadists. Read the article at the link in my earlier post.
BTW, these things the OP is complaining about are not "search results," they're autocompletes. I don't understand why anyone should care at all about what is suggested on the list of autocompletes.
[quote=Cunucu Beach;16076477]Here is what I get when I enter "islam is" into Google:
Keyed it in and got the same 10 drop down results, agree with Bowie.. Why even bother with the drop downs? Could not care in the least what Google recommends/suggests.

I do, I never learned to type properly and make frequent spelling mistakes because I can't see the screen. I hit submit and Google will give me easy link to correct spelling. It's easier than proofreading every query.

Now there you have a point, Google in that respect is ok

Now if they could only come up with right click menu to turn entire paragraph that is all capitals into lower case I'll be set. I'll hit caps lock instead of A sometimes.

I can't believe it took the second page for someone to rightly explain that.
This is not "filtering".
Kudos.
maybe christians should start blowing themselfs up for their beliefs and maybe they will get special consideration too whine ass, thats the suggestions anyway if you hit enter im sure someone would have something negative to say about islam. cant make anyone happy... christians arent happy unless muslims are pissed and they arent happy if christians are alive and not worshipping allah... well most of them.. i have met a few down to earth and not so angry.
