Apple pledges $100K in Calif. gay marriage fight

Associated Press - October 24, 2008 10:53 PM ET

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Apple Inc. has joined the short list of publicly traded companies to oppose a ballot measure that would ban same-sex marriage in California.

The Cupertino-based computer and iPod maker said on its Web site Friday it made a $100,000 pledge to defeat Proposition 8.

The statement says Apple views the initiative as a civil rights issue. An Apple spokesman declined to elaborate.

Jeans maker Levi Strauss & Co. gave $25,000 last month to fight the initiative.

Same-sex marriage became legal in California in June.



Wow is about all I have to say...........................................

Will letting them be married have any effect on your marriage? If you answer "yes," then please explain.

Is the marriage of two "cornholing fairies," as Blackie calls them, any more of an abomination in the eyes of your God than a bride in a white dress, the Christian symbol of purity, walking down the aisle to be married in church, knowing full well that she's slept with all of the groomsmen and half the men in the church? Not to mention half the men in The Home on any given Saturday night. If you can honestly answer "yes," please explain.

If you're going to talk like Fred Phelps when it comes to homosexuals, at least be as consistent as he is and condemn the inherent hypocrisy in most of the rest of the religious world.

Recently I've been attending The Church of the Beautiful Game. Starting next Sunday, I'm switching to The Church of the NFL Sunday Countdown.
