    from theregister.co.uk :

    Apple promotes 'Godless Darwinism and Communism'
    By Drew Cullen
    Posted: 22/04/2002 at 16:07 GMT

    Dr. Richard Paley is a teacher of Divinity and something called Theobiology at Fellowship University, which we guess is somewhere in America.

    He's a doughty fighter against anti-Christian hatecrimes, and a fierce opponent of Evolutionism. In his capacity as a member of the OBJECTIVE: Landover Baptist Shutdown ()Landover Baptist is a spoof publication) web site, Dr. Paley has written an article called Objective: Creation Education, an expose of evolutionist propaganda.

    A prime exponent of such propaganda is - Apple.

    The real operating system hiding under the newest version of the Macintosh operating system (MacOS X) is called... Darwin! That's right, new Macs are based on Darwinism! While they currently don't advertise this fact to consumers, it is well known among the computer elite, who are mostly Atheists and Pagans. Furthermore, the Darwin OS is released under an "Open Source" license, which is just another name for Communism. They try to hide all of this under a facade of shiny, "lickable" buttons, but the truth has finally come out: Apple Computers promote Godless Darwinism and Communism.

    Accompanying the article is a picture, captioned: "Hypnotically encased iMacs trick unsuspecting computer users into accepting Darwinism"

    Apple, Dr. Paley notes was founded by long haired hippies, and has "consistently supported 60's counter-cultural 'values'".

    But there are even darker undertones to this company than most are aware of. Consider the name of the company and its logo: an apple with a bite taken out of it. This is clearly a reference to the Fall, when Adam and Eve were tempted with an apple2 by the serpent. It is now Apple Computers offering us temptation, thereby aligning themselves with the forces of darkness3.

    Apple exhibits cult-like qualities, its constant exhortation through advertising (i.e mind control', Dr Paley says) to 'think different' is disturbing. Think different from what?

    "The disturbing answer is that they want us to think different than our Christian upbringing, to reject all the values that we have been taught and to heed not the message of the Lord Jesus Christ!".

    In a short biog on the site, Dr Paley reveals that he has led "successful boycotts against Sears and Piggly-Wiggly and has spearheaded the movement to stop Evolutionism from being forced on the children of Marian County". His favourite passage from the Scripture is Genesis 1.

    Clearly, Dr. Paley is not a man to be trifled with. We wonder what he would make of BOFH, the code name for the Bastard Operator from Hell? You can find his dissection of Apple here.

    OBJECTIVE: Landover Baptist Shutdown, is looking for members to help "combat Americhrist Ltd. and other purveyors of anti-Christian bigotry on our Internet".
    Its Web host is TruePath.com ("True Path your Christ-Centered Web host"). which seems real enough.

    But what about Fellowship University? or Piggly-Wiggly? or Marian County? Or Dr. Paley? Is it the creation of Landover Baptist itself. A tribute site, even?

    Update
    Piggly Wiggly is real! It's a grocery chain with 600 outlets in 16 states and there's even a Web site at PigglyWiggly.com. ®

    'Furthermore, the Darwin OS is released under an "Open Source" license, which is just another name for Communism.'
