Only deluded idiots buy a watch to NOT TELL TIME as the primary goal.

Who’s next?

I can't speak for others, but I have always admired Apple's engineering skills. It is this business of a Multi-Billion Dollar Corporation led by a Homosexual forcing a State government to gut a religious freedom bill that has turned me into a "Apple Hater." Till recently, I had no beef at all with Apple. Now I regard them as part of an Evil Empire, and a potential threat to my beliefs and eventually my life.

Exactly

America respected and admired Steve Jobs.

This evil militant queer Tim Cook and his faggot flying monkey comrades will get ZERO support from conservatives.

I know this is not a thread about Christianity, but this just has to be said ... and said ANYTIME that homosexuality is brought up.

Homosexuality is a sexual sin, as are the sexual sins that heterosexuals commit ... and ... the Bible condemns them all as sins.

HOWEVER, homosexuality is a special one, as far as the Bible is concerned in that the condition or desire or action of homosexuality is “a judgement” from God.

Many people think homosexuality is simply a sin and it then deserves judgement, as a result of that sin ... but no ... the Bible describes a PRIOR SIN and that “being a homosexual” is the “resulting judgement” from God for that prior sin. In other words, homosexuality is the “end result” of that judgement from God. Keep that mind and read what God says here ... and see what that prior sin is!

— — —

Romans 1

15 So, as much as is in me, I am ready to preach the gospel to you who are in Rome also.

16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.

17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.”

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,

19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them.

20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,

21 because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.

22 Professing to be wise, they became fools,

23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,

25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.

27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;

29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers,

30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful;

32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.

— — —

The key verses are here ... which shows the prior sin and then the resulting “judgement” for that sin ...

20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,

21 because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.

22 Professing to be wise, they became fools,

23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,

25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.

27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;

Homosexuality is evidence that God’s judgement IS UPON THAT PERSON!

You are a small thinker.

Even here on FR we have people who bought smartphones to do literally thousands of things rather than just using the phone.

So... Why are you on this thread?

Perusing the titles of various threads, this one was the most interesting at the time. The guy asked why people wanted this device, and I felt I had a reasonably good answer. I still think my answer is the best explanation for what we are seeing.
*******************************************************************************************************
So YOU (who does not want an Apple Watch) can divine the reason why we buyers of Apple products buy those products but we folks who actually buy those products don’t have a clue and incorrectly think we’re buying them for their technical utility?

I think he's convinced that no gay person ever set foot or heaven forfend! had sex in his house without his knowledge– even prior to his owning it.

And the used car he bought was never driven or serviced by a homosexual, and the clothes he wears were not designed, manufactured, transported or sold by a gay person. The server at the restaurant where he had lunch might have been gay– because you can't really spot them anywhere– but best not to go back there. Hotel rooms? Ewww.

Gay-ness is the big disqualifier. Laser-focus on it!

Because if you're really trying to stamp out homosexuals, you can't be too careful. You must avoid Apple.

But if you use a PC, don't worry about it– Bill Gates only donated $200 million to Common Core. They could have gotten by without that money, right?

Did Ford tell you to buy all those cars??

It doesn't make any difference when Henry Ford died. He was a Nazi Loving Jew Hater. By buying so many Ford cars you obviously have no problem with supporting a Company that helped kill 6 million Jews.

You are confusing smartphones with DUMB WATCHES. It’s no doubt why based on your responses who the small thinker is here.

“BTW I never said I was uninterested in the topic.”

And three sentences later,

“I said I was not longer interested in these endless tech trinkets.”

Uh...wut?

I haven’t seen anyone here, on the list of 700+ Freepers on the Apple Ping List support the gay lifestyle or support any gay agenda ... while at the very same time as that ... They do like and buy Apple products, as do I. That will continue.

As far as homosexuals themselves, I gave God’s position on the matter, in Post #106 ...

I said I was not longer interested in these endless tech trinkets.

Uh yes, that’s what I said.

Why are you so angry that I find all the latest so-called “must have” tech gadgets redundant and useless?

Why does this bother you?

Is it because so many others just simply getting burned out on all these latest wizbang toys?

Look, I don’t care if ya wear these watches on both arms and both ankles. Go for it.

And I noted you evaded the question

Why do you care about my time? Why would you care about what I might or might not be interested in?

What’s up with your homeowners association mentality?

What a lot of people don’t realize is that homosexuality is actually “the judgement” itself ... more so than it is the sin (which it is, too). In this case of Homosexuality, there is a prior sin for which God judges those people, and “homosexuality” is that resulting judgement.

It’s like it’s a person with a sign on them - when they are a homosexual - that says ... “I have already been judged by God, and the proof of that is that I am a homosexual!”

See Post #106 ...
