Holy iPad Slayer! Company Releases World's First Christian Tablet

Velcroman1 writes "Steve Jobs worshippers need not apply. But if you're looking to get in God's good graces, or you're simply in the market for a family-friendly tablet, you may want to check out Family Christian's Edifi. Billed as the world's first Christian tablet, its genesis came with the inevitable intersection of technology and religion, according to Brian Honorable, a technology supervisor at Family Christian, the group that sells the tablet. 'We wanted to be able to offer our customers the ability to use our Holy Bible application, which has 27 different English translations of the Bible,' Honorable said."

Re:Resistive Touch. Move along.

Collection of books aside, this is not even a good tablet. It's a resistive touch screen. I wouldn't even consider getting anything that's not capacitive these days.

Con men seldom worry about things like including up-to-date technology in their products.

When you can convince people that they need special religious hand-held computers instead of the evil secular hand-held computers, I'm pretty sure you can convince them that multi-touch and dual-core processors are the devil's work.

Hell, I'm surprised that they're not just selling a piece of glass glued to a piece of plastic and telling the customers to pray harder. If you think I'm exaggerating, you can go on cable TV right now and buy a special "prayer handkerchief" that is guaranteed to make your prayers more effective.

In the world of religion, "plug and pray" is a feature, not a bug. And you know why? Because His ways are not our ways. I know this because today Mitt Romney said those very words in a speech to a group of voters. "His ways are not our ways". I'm not kidding. He wants to be President.
