Music and censorship

It's been something like over a year since I last tuned in to a radio, so while this may be old news to everyone living outside my cave, it is new to me. In the song, It ain't a scene, it's an arms race the word God is censored. Instead of: "it's a god damn arms race" it's now "it's a *drum beat* damn arms race." Since when has the word god become offensive?! So, "god" is censored, "gun" from the song Teenage Dirtbag's censored, yet Khia's My Neck, My Back gets uncensored airplay. Oh wise ones of the spacing world, how the hell is that possible? Pray do tell me. I thought that the point of radio censorship was to make the listener's listening experience "wholesome" and "good" :p No, but seriously, someone please try to explain to me who worked out such an equation, and what possible logic was behind it.
 
I will now depart in a much more confused state than when I logged on.

ah the wonderful subject of censorship! the million dollar question is who censor's the censors? For the few making decisions for the rest, what gives them the right? how did they get to stand on a higher plain and decide what should or should not be. Who serves the servers (thank you Kurt Cobain). I could go on but it's still too early. Perhaps I will come back when I'm a little more lucid to leave my humble opinion on my most favourite topic...:-)

Hi.  My initial reaction is that "they" censor it because it's an expression taking the Lord's name in vain.  That's my guess, but on other fronts, it is troubling that The Who song, "Who are you?" doesn't get the silent treatment, but Steve Miller?  "Funky shNit goin' down in the city"?  This, too, is bullshNit!  Censorship blows, no matter what the medium.

Grrrr at the radio!  I never listen to it unless I'm stuck in traffic and want to know why there is residual pinhead slowing.  While the sensors are on a rampage, why not yank all recordings by Fergie off the air? Hmmmm censors...WHY?
You are only wearing pants because you stole mine while I was in the shower, so my nude interpretive dance number is dedicated to you.  *cue music*
I MISS YOU ELLA!!!!!!!!!!
Love~*R*~
