God is Not a Four-Letter Word

vixaliciousOn my flight today to Seattle, the in-flight movie was The Queen. I was happy, because I had wanted to see it but hadn't made it while it was in the theater. I thought it was quite good, except for one bizarre moment with a deer, and really enjoyed it.
Except apparently Delta thinks the word God is a curse word. They bleeped it out every time. I find this quite upsetting, because no matter what your faith or lack there of, God is not a curse word. Neither is Buddha, or Allah, or Zeus, or any other deity. I don't think anyone would have been irreparably damaged by hearing the phrase 'for God and country' in this movie, considering it's a tenant of the monarchy of Great Britain. I don't get it. That Delta would waste time and money on such an unnecessary exercise.
