The Apple Watch Is Neat, But That Is All

PEOPLE have been raving about the Apple Watch, so it is probably time for a rant from a devil’s advocate.

For starters, Apple’s smartwatch is neat, but that might be the only thing it has going for it. If the product’s intended function is providing you with around-the-clock health information, then there are a lot of roadblocks that need to be addressed.

Here are five: (...) 1. Battery life is as terrible as you would expect. 2. Too little screen for too much information. 3. It is too big. 4. Even the positive reviews are negative. 5. The Apple Watch could still fail. (...)

“Now, if you get the heterosexual community to stand up against HETEROSEXUAL IMMORALITY ... across the board ... then we could absolutely squash the homosexual agenda. The problem is not with the 3.8% ... but the problem is with the Heterosexuals!”

Keep putting Mr. Cook up hight on your shoulders. That’ll go real nicely around here.

How about the problem is with companies like Apple who continue to put “leaders” like this male ass poker into power and authority over 1/2 trillion dollar corporations. “Money over morality”.

Got it.

It’s God’s law.

Are you saying God takes back seat to Apple?

You are no Christian. You are no conservative. You belong over at some moonbat web site worshipping Clinton and Obama.

Okay, I’ll try ...

To be a homosexual is to wear a sign that says ... “My homosexuality is the proof that I have been judged by God.”

Now, there is really no other sin that I am aware of ... in which the sin is “the judgement itself.”

If you’re a thief, you will be judged, but that, in and of itself, is not the judgement. If you are a murderer, you will be judged, but that is not a judgement in and of itself. If you are an adulterer, you will be judged, but that is not the judgement in and of itself.

In the case of being a homosexual ... that very thing IS THE JUDGEMENT!

“THAT” makes it a very special thing.

[IncPen]

The LGBT group is a mere 3.8% of the U.S. population.

That's an interesting but meaningless number.

Nearly 50% of the population voted for Obama and his gay agenda in 2008, and some number– probably north of 25% of those who voted against Obama– also support the gay agenda, out of love or fear. Those are the numbers you have to consider.

And you know what?

The idiots attacking conservatives on this forum think that 'The Revolution' is about the gays, but it's not about them at all. They're a vehicle, useful pawns to undermine those who actually oppose the radicals now in power.

So by attacking conservatives on this forum in the name of 'gay hate', they're actually doing Obama's work.

[IncPen]

It’s God’s law.

Are you saying God takes back seat to Apple?

You are no Christian. You are no conservative. You belong over at some moonbat web site worshipping Clinton and Obama.

I think God can take care of Tim Cook and the other homosexuals, as he sees fit.

The way I look at it, you are disrupting and dividing a conservative forum; you are doing the Devil's work, by your own math.

Why be in an icu when a watch can gather the info I want? You can ignore your health all you like, but I’m interested in staying alive another 50 years, and if the price of one hour in icu can help me last that long, then I’d expect you’d wish me well with my Watch. I could be dead four times over already, so yeah I’d like to leverage technology to see my children’s children.

I’ll just tag you as a mean crank who wishes ill on any who disagree with your Luddite views, and duly ignore you. Up yours, Marxist.

[DiogenesLamp]

In the case of being a homosexual ... that very thing IS THE JUDGEMENT!

Okay, maybe I get what you're getting at, but even if that is so, this does not address the potential threat from their ambitions.

I do not believe they are content to leave people alone. I believe they are driven to keep demanding more and more concessions and that they will never be satisfied until they believe everyone accepts and affirms their behavior as normal and acceptable.

I believe the Nazi term is "Gleichschaltung"

[Up Yours Marxists]

Typical communist tactic. Attack the messenger.

The only divide is in your head. Choose a side. Pick Satan for convenience to your ever-growing list of earthly possessions, or pick God for justice and guidance.

I believe you’ve already made a choice. Good luck in whatever it is you are seeking.

[Star Traveler]

You said ... “It’s God’s law.”

Well, the thing here is that you’re JUST AS DESERVING OF DEATH (as the Bible says) ... as much as the Homosexual is. ALL (including the homosexual) are going to the same place ... UNLESS ... they have personally accepted Jesus, the Messiah of Israel, as their personal savior, having their sins forgiven.

Now because you are a sinner deserving of death doesn’t mean to me that I will refuse to buy something from you or sell something to you ... because if I did that with Sinners, then I couldn’t buy or sell anything ... :-) ...

God considers your sins just as FILTHY and DESPICABLE as the Homosexual, and you are just as deserving of death as they are! So, concentrate on your salvation in Jesus, the Messiah of Israel ... first ... so you’re FILTHY SINS are covered, and then you can give the Gospel of Salvation to others.

[Up Yours Marxists]

Oh, I get it. I sin, others sin, so it’s “OK” to participate in that sin and share God’s grace with others who sin. Because, hey, we all sin. So, let’s all sin together and cook marshmallows around the campfire of sin.

Where on God’s green Earth are you getting this ridiculous crap from??? It certainly isn’t from the Holy Bible.

[DiogenesLamp]

Now, if you get the heterosexual community to stand up against HETEROSEXUAL IMMORALITY ... across the board ... then we could absolutely squash the homosexual agenda. The problem is not with the 3.8% ... but the problem is with the Heterosexuals!

I wrote some commentary on this issue the other day.

I think what we are facing here is a systemic and circumstantial problem. If you want to get even more technical, it is a relatively modern variation on this phenomena.

[Star Traveler]

You need the “rest of it” that I posted ... along with that 3.8% ... :-) ...

— — —

The LGBT group is a mere 3.8% of the U.S. population. The problem is that many heterosexuals “cover” their own SEXUAL IMMORALITY by supporting the LGBTs. They know that to say that the LGBT Sexual Immorality is “bad” ... while their own heterosexual immorality is “okay” ... is TOTAL HYPOCRISY. That’s why you’ve got so many heterosexuals covering for the homosexuals ... they don’t want the finger pointing back at themselves!

[IncPen]

That’s hysterically funny.

You’re joking, right?

[Star Traveler]

ALL SIN ... including yours, since you’re in the human race ... is deserving of death. There is ONLY ONE WAY (for ALL, including Homosexuals) to be forgiven for their sins and be saved ... and that is by accepting Jesus, as the Messiah of Israel, the promised one, as your personal Savior.

That is the Bible.

[Up Yours Marxists]

Ok. Then forego the Bible. Put Mr. Cook on your shoulders and shout on the rooftops how much of a “great Christian” he is. Are you Episcopal, or perhaps Presbyterian???

Stop with the babble and stick to the point. Amazing how such a simple discussion of a crap product by a lost company spirals into a spiritual discussion.

[dragnet2]

I’m just baffled

I bet it looks funny when that happens.

You've been chasing me all over this thread.

Do you work for a dial an argument call center? Maybe you should do a, "A Day in Life of Apple" thread where anything other than praise is not tolerated.

BTW, I'm just pulling your leg here.

People get shot and beaten over certain types of sneakers, so I fully understand people getting all excited over their favorite products.

Buy one and support that 8 0cent an hour wage overseas.

One big problem with your snarky little comment. It ain't true. The workers on Apple's assembly line are being paid three to seven times the Chinese national minimum wage. . . and their standard cost of living is far less than the cost of living in the US. If you were to pay a factory assembly line worker in the US seven times the federal minimum wage they'd be making $52 an hour, a handsome income in relation to the cost of living. Even at the three times minimum, that's around $22 per hour. The same is true in China. They make good wages working on Apple lines.

Whenever a new assembly line for Apple products open, thousands of applicants vie for each job opening because they are very desirable jobs. Sorry, the 80¢ per hour is a myth.

[Star Traveler]

If Homosexuality is involved, it’s a spiritual problem, per Romans 1 (as quoted above). There’s no ignoring that. And also, it’s a HYPOCRISY PROBLEM by the Heterosexuals because of their own sexual immorality. If we solve the Heterosexual Immorality Problem, the Homosexual Problem will be solved as a result of it! The real problem here, is with the Heterosexuals!

AND ... “companies” are not lost. There is no such thing in the Bible. People are lost or saved, and “companies” consist of many different kinds of people.

Next ... where did I say Tim Cook is a Christian. I don’t even know of you’re a Christian ... and yet here I am still talking to you ... Christian or not ... LOL ...

As far as what I am, I do believe my Freeper page is fairly clear on it ... I’m a Christian who is a Dispensational Evangelical.

ON my Samsung I can down load movies, music etc for free. With Apple you have to sign up and register and then pay.

There is a lot of free music and movies on Apple also. Who told you there wasn't?

Your Samsung is Google Android. . . and it is watching you all the time and collecting your data for Google to sell.

As for living off of past positives:

Add to that the fact that Apple iPhone 6 and 6 plus has garner 35% of the market share in South Korea, Samsung's own home market!

And upon how many of these other sins does God rain down fire from Heaven and burn entire cities alive?

Ask Hamburg and Dresden.
