(Ir)religiosity

I am a part time apple employee and very proud to associated. they promote this diversity in their stores and corp offices in who they hire and how they manage their employees. It is a very fun enviroment to work in no one is afraid of expression. I also applaud apple in this decision.

This is excellent information! It's refreshing to know that these sometimes faceless companies are interested in such things.

anonymous - i am failing to see how warren's decision here is not the one that is rotten to the core. when i read the new testament and study the life of jesus -- one who stood for the outcast, accepted the unacceptable and offered love to those his society and religion held at arm's length -- i come to the conclusion that warren here is in no way, shape, or form "faithfully and practically applying Christian faith to challenging social issues" nor is he displaying courage. at best he is showing us all how religion can be used to exclude and marginalize others. warren has done some remarkable and commendable things, but this is not among them. rather, this decision is indicative of the bigotry that is all to typical among so-called religious leaders and i find it to be completely antithetical too the heart of the christian faith.

In this matter Apple's decision is rotten to the core. In contrast Warren has consistently demonstrated a fine grasp of faithfully and practically applying Christian faith to challenging social issues. In this instance his courage in speaking out is remarkable and commendable.

i hadn't heard about warren. that's too bad. though i can't say i'm all that surprised.

thanks for the comment on the new layout (it is funny how RSS keeps you from noticing things). i'm turning over a new leaf -- and rethinking my blogging. mainly because i suddenly don't have as much time as i used to. :)

Yeah, on the same day that Rick Warren endorsed Prop 8. Sigh. Two hipster religions battling it out.

nice new blog style, btw. Hadn't noticed it yet, thanks to RSS.
