Christians pissed at Steve.

I don't agree with their app, but they have a point about Apple's selective censorship.

I think it's funny that Apple exploded onto the scene with their anti-Big Brother ad only to become Big Brother.

Suing their customers, censoring apps, proprietary hardware and software, etc. They're starting to make Microsoft look good at PR, and that's HARD to do.

Seems like a bad business decision.

Considering the nature of most Apple users, it seems like a sound business decision to me.

Not that I support it. But mostly because I don't support anything Apple does. They're evil.

This could turn away possible "christian" iphone customers, while if they quietly approved it not a single iphone user would throw their phone away.

I sez.

Sure, sure, but only the most reactionary and conservative of Christians. You know, they ones that are usually not very tech savvy, and unlikely to buy an iPhone in the first place.

Sweet. Two groups of idiots look bad at the same time.
