Me So Holy allows users to put their faces within a religious figure

“Me So Holy” is an iPhone app that allows you take a face shot and insert it into a portrait of Jesus or some other religious figure.

Apple says it contains objectionable content and is in violation of Section 3.3.12 from the iPhone SDK Agreement and has rejected the app.

Apple agreement says, “Applications must not contain any obscene, pornographic, offensive or defamatory content or materials of any kind (text, graphics, images, photographs, etc.), or other content or materials that in Apple’s reasonable judgment may be found objectionable by iPhone or iPod touch users.”

“Me So Holy” developer, Benjamin Kahle begs to differ of course, comparing the recently rejected Nine Inch Nails app which was subsequently approved.

Kahle added, “You may be familiar with recent snafus over the baby shaker app and the rejection of the Nine Inch Nails apps. Our question is, is religion really to be placed in the same category as these violent apps? Sex, urine and defecation don’t seem to be off-limits, yet a totally non-violent, religion-based app is. We feel that Apple is being too sensitive to its perceived user group and are disappointed that this otherwise creative, freethinking company would reject such a positive and fun application. The message to developers is that they should think inside the box, rather than outside it.”
