Mac lovers (like me): something to consider.
Apple announced it is donating $100,000 to the “No on 8″ campaign, citing its history as one of the first California companies to offer equal benefits to its employees’ same-sex partners: “We strongly believe that a person’s fundamental rights–including the right to marry–should not be affected by their sexual orientation. Apple views this as a civil rights issue, rather than just a political issue, and is therefore speaking out publicly against Proposition 8.”
According to the article, Google has also given money to the “No on 8″ campaign. This sort of thing won’t lead me to stop using their products, though it should give one pause to consider where the profits from some of your spending is eventually ending up. Granted just about every corporation we interact with will at some point or another do something or other that opposes what God has established in his Word, so this sort of thing isn’t exactly new, but I really don’t like the thought of some of my money (by association) going to defend gay marriage in California.
