Mobile networks told to ban 'Jesus Christ' from airwave

Mobile networks told to ban 'Jesus Christ' from airwave: "The Pakistan Telecommunications Authority is banning the name of Jesus Christ from any text message sent in the country.

The government's telecommunications agency has given mobile phone companies a list of 1,695 words and informed them that they have seven days to implement filters in their systems that would block the transmission of the words.

The official list includes a number of English language slang terms for sexual acts, religious words and other words Pakistani religious authorities consider obscene."
