Quote# 87914
Some of the most popular vehicles for this subliminal propaganda are children's television shows, books, and toys. By getting their ideas into the minds of the young, they hope to be able to do the most damage to traditional values and belief. Shows like Pokemon, which features animals "evolving" into new forms, and popular movies like Jurassic Park and X-Men provide a continuous cultural fog of Evolutionism that is impossible for innocent children to escape from.
Apple Macintosh:
However, these propagandists aren't just targeting the young. Take for example Apple Computers, makers of the popular Macintosh line of computers. The real operating system hiding under the newest version of the Macintosh operating system (MacOS X) is called... Darwin! That's right, new Macs are based on Darwinism! While they currently don't advertise this fact to consumers, it is well known among the computer elite, who are mostly Atheists and Pagans. Furthermore, the Darwin OS is released under an "Open Source" license, which is just another name for Communism. They try to hide all of this under a facade of shiny, "lickable" buttons, but the truth has finally come out: Apple Computers promote Godless Darwinism and Communism.
But is this really such a shock? Lets look for a moment at Apple Computers. Founded by long haired hippies, this company has consistently supported 60's counter-cultural "values"2. But there are even darker undertones to this company than most are aware of. Consider the name of the company and its logo: an apple with a bite taken out of it. This is clearly a reference to the Fall, when Adam and Eve were tempted with an apple3 by the serpent. It is now Apple Computers offering us temptation, thereby aligning themselves with the forces of darkness4.
This company is well known for its cult-like following. It isn't much of a stretch to say that it is a cult. Consider co-founder and leader Steve Jobs' constant exhortation through advertising (i.e. mind control) that its followers should "think different". We have to ask ourselves: "think different from whom or what?" The disturbing answer is that they want us to think different than our Christian upbringing, to reject all the values that we have been taught and to heed not the message of the Lord Jesus Christ!
Given the now obvious anti-Christian and cultish nature of Apple Computers, is it any wonder that they have decided to base their newest operating system on Darwinism? This just reaffirms the position that Darwinism is an inherently anti-Christian philosophy spread through propaganda and subliminal trickery, not a science as its brainwashed followers would have us believe.

Well done! Have 3 Internets and a box of Kleenex.
@ Old Viking.
Wow, I hadn't know about Hume's refutation. Thanks for that. Looking into it, I see he's an amazing guy, he actually refuted Paley's argument two decades before Paley made it!*

P.S. Quintessentially trivia; Charles Darwin had the same rooms at Cambridge that Paley did before him.

You have to be kidding. Do you really think that the original fruit in your creation myth was an apple?
If you are using windows what do you think about Bill Gates unapologetic liberalism? Is he a commie too?
You couldn't possibly be using Linux if you think OSX is "commie".
People like you are so unbelievably ignorant and misinformed. Hopefully you all will soon die off.

It is a parody site but it seems very familiar to real Christian nonsense.
I have heard numerous republicans/evangelical christians claim that linux is "commie" and Mac is atheist propaganda because of the Darwin kernel.

I really hope this is a poe, because I thought everyone knew the origin of the apple of Apple Computers was a reference to Isaac Newton and the falling apple. That's computer history 101.

when Adam and Eve were tempted with an apple3 by the serpent.
The Apple III had a reputation for being a piece of crap*. Maybe it would have worked OK for Adam & Eve, but Satan probably would have had better luck tempting them with a Powerbook or iPad.
*Because Steve Jobs didn't like the idea of a cooling fan because they're "noisy and inelegant" and with no cooling vents, the PC board overheated and warped, causing chips to come out of their sockets and the computer to crash. One of the favored means of fixing the problem was to pick up the computer and drop it on the desktop in hopes of reseating the chips. The Apple II emulation didn't work, either.

If you don't like Apple, don't buy its products. Problem solved.
That you have to go into an off-topic rant about the company is pathetic.

There is no such thing as Evolutionism.
Just as there is no anti-Christian bias inherent to Apple Computers.
Look, you lockstepped groupthink mob of morons just don't get it, so I'll use a popular movie quote in the hope someone in your scrum is individual enough to take note:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"A *person* is smart. *People* are dumb, panicky animals, and you know it."--Agent K, excerpted from the movie MIB (Men In Black).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you think differently than those around you, you are not part of a scrum of numbskulls.
If you don't, you have very, very few (if any) original thoughts.
And may you win a Darwin Award when you blindly and faithfully march off to your inevitable doom, you cartilaginous freak. (meaning boneless, not just spineless, else I would have called you invertabrate, *dick*)

I almost freaked out there for a second, until I learned it was a parody site. Damn, that scared me for a moment.

@dfmfundies:
I didn't say the tossbag. Posters mentioned Apple because the fundie POE mentioned Apple, for which I have no particular feeling. Some posters also agreed on the cultish behaviour of diehard Apple users; apparently they happen to be thin-skinned as well.
I notice that corporate apologetics still use the Nike defence: "everybody else is doing it, why do you pick me?". It's true, but it doesn't make anyone look better.

GOD DAMN, MOTHERFUCKING, CLASS-FAILING LUNATICS!
Open source is NOT the fucking same as communism! Any person that thinks that is clearly an insane, overstimulated idiot! Darwin OS is open source, so what? I'm an open source software programmer, and I use Linux. Does that mean I am a Commie? NO! It means I'm willing--not forcing people--to share what I've made, for the greater good! Subliminal messaging is a FUCKING LIE! I hate that anyone even THINKS of this kind of shit!
