It is a good thing. We use those names which are suppose to be sacred in every possible and impossible situation and in the process trivialize them. 5 Likes |

Afamdman: Why does DSTV censor the words JESUS CHRIST, GOD. Anybody noticed that?because they are used as curse words like f.uck, shi.t etc. They are not said with any belief in it. |

akraym: Jesus! The topic is more than a year old. What is it doing on fp now. The mangement of DSTV should be in a better position to address this; that's if they will anyway. On your comment, the clueless moderators on Nairaland apparently lack needed brain power to identify worthy topics. There is a thread with pictures; showing serious decay @ a Police barracks, so much that sticks are used to support parts of buildings from crashing down. They'll rather wait for Channels and Sahara to make the story go viral instead of them to do the needful here on NL 6 Likes |

didnt notice that, always on discovery ID. |
Re: DSTV Censor Words Like Jesus, God: Why? by Nobody: 12:37pm On Nov 17, 2013 |
that is how to operate when rendering services to a poly-denominational consumers... you sensor names/articles that people regard sacred and or blasphemous to their beliefs. unlike some clueless pentecostal-minion-nollywood movie makers that center every topic on one religion and make the other religions (traditional, etc) seem evil. 4 Likes 1 Share |

I hear Jesus almost everytime on africamagic! But as of recent! They are beginning to censor too many words! Its so annoying! I wonder why they would censor 'Hell' |
Re: DSTV Censor Words Like Jesus, God: Why? by thechosenone: 12:40pm On Nov 17, 2013 |
That's because lots of people have turned 'Jesus' and 'God' into swear words and that's blasphemy. I also noticed 'God' and 'Jesus' are censored in cinemas |

I have been wanting to ask this question, the censorship of abortion, idiot, foolish, ashawo ish e.t.c. Is understandable, but God, jesus Christ I don't know, beside is only on Africa Magics |
