Default MICROSOFT WORD SHOULD NOT BE RACIST

I wouldn't describe this as racist but it does seem a little inconsistent -
if not downright bizarre. There seem to be a lot of hardcoded AutoCorrects
which capitalise proper names, and many which are not capitalised but which
are flagged as spelling errors with the capitalised version suggested as a
correction. Amongst the latter category is "jesus".

When I enter the word "Muslim" in lower-case in Microsoft word, it does

not
automatically capitilize it. However, when I enter any other faith, like
Christianity, or Judaism, or even Hinduism, it automatically capitilizes

the
word. I would like to know why this is. I'd appreciate a quick response or
else I will go to the media.
