Showing posts with the label Apple

An Apple ad that captures the essence of the season in a most surprising way.

I have always been an 'Apple' - man, starting with my first Apple 2+ in the early 1980's right through to my iPad and iMacs of today. Here's a seasonal offering from them that's creative in the way it presents a new paradigm for looking at how today's youth are using their products. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Gay rights groups attack iPhone confession app for Roman Catholics | World news | The Observer

Give me a break. What did they expect from something that the Church approved of as a preparation for confession? I have not purchased this app but I hardly find this surprising. It is the teaching of the Catholic Church that homosexual acts are intrinsically sinful because they are unchaste. In other words, they are sexual acts that take place outside of the sacrament of marriage and are therefore a major sin against chastity. One should not expect a church instrument to say anything else. In fact, it WOULD be a story within the Catholic world if the app answered in any other way but as it stands, it doesn't really budge the 'surprise meter'. Fr.

An app for the penitent: Bless me, Apple, for I have sinned - The Globe and Mail

Here's a wonderful example of how the MSM has no idea how to report religious stories. The headline and first paragraph state that the church has approved the use of an iphone app to be forgiven of personal sin... in lieu evidently of going to confession. You have to read all the way to the last line to discover that absolution still requires a trip to the confessional... "for now, anyway."
