Apple CEO Tim Cook is speaking out about his sexuality, for the first time openly since he was accidentally outed by a CNBC anchor back in June. He’s coming out publicly to announce that he is proud to be gay, and to speak about the things his sexuality has taught him — and how his coming out may help others.
Back in June, a CNBC anchor was discussing the story of John Browne, a former CEO of BP, who left his job after being publicly outed by a tabloid paper. In response, host Simon Hobbs commented that there are many openly gay CEOs, and listing Tim Cook as one of them. His co-hosts quickly moved to silence him.

Being a sodomite is no more a “gift from God” than is being a murderer or an adulterer. These people who are mocking Him and ignoring His own Word will be judged by Him.
RE: To which “god” is he referring?
In Ancient Greece, the Twins Castor and Pollux, were the gods of Homosexuality.
a mortal named Leda was seduced by Zeus who came to her in the form of a swan. Leda gave birth to an egg from which emerged Castor, Pollux and Helen (yes, eventually of Troy).
The identical brothers were inseparable, and had a deep affection for one another, for which reason they were often worshipped as gods of homosexuality (afterall, they were sons of Zeus).
Helen, a great beauty, was constantly being abducted and in need of rescue, which the brothers were usually successful in accomplishing, however, her beauty was eventually to lead to the Trojan War.
Castor was a skilled horseman, and Pollux was an unconquerable boxer. They took part in the voyage of the Argonauts, and with Orpheus they calmed a storm, for which reason they were also worshipped as the protectors of sailors.
” So let me be clear: I’m proud to be gay, and I consider being gay among the greatest gifts God has given me.”
Really? I don’t know if I would be proud to be gay. I’m thanking God that I’m not!
Coming out of the closet.
Or the box.
Or the crate.
Or the bushel.
Or whatever.
Would you like a parade too fruitcup?
How did Apple ever get away with using that name anyway? Apple was/is the name of the Beatles production company which after looking up is still in business and has been around a lot longer than Apple computers.
Look at this, they had to use the name “Applerecords” because Apple the computer company is using the “Apple.com” website.
How did Jobs get away with that? I heard Steve Jobs was a big Beatles fan so what kind of idiot steals a name like that? That would be like me being a fan of Bill Gates and calling my record company “Microsoft”.
Not from the God who gave us the Bible. Some other god.
"Neither of you WOULD be here right now."
Romans 1:18-27 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
Apple — it figures.
Hey Tim.. THat wasn’t god that gave you that “gift”.
RE: How did Apple ever get away with using that name anyway?
From Wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Apple_Inc.
The name Apple was chosen because the company to beat in the technology industry at the time was Atari, and Apple Computer came before Atari alphabetically and thus also in the phone book.
Another reason was that Steven Jobs had happy memories of working on an Oregon apple farm one summer.
Perversion is not a gift.
Apple CEO Tim Cook: “Being Gay Is Among The Greatest Gifts God Has Given Me”
That and Preparation H
Um, I don’t quite know every passage in the Bible by heart, but I sure don’t think that one of God’s “gifts” includes this pervert’s sexual desire to play around in the feces of other dudes.
There’s fruit right on the lid.
No mystery, there.

Roger that comment. The heat of the Lake of Fire will burn his butt so bad that he will regret that comment for all eternity. It’s gonna be hot where he’s headed, so I would plan on getting one of those heat suits.
With Preparation H running a close second.
