Plenty of CEOs are vile, unscrupulous pigs who cheat on their wives and sexually harass female employees, but you won't see this sort of backlash against them because it isn't the current political hot topic.
The Bible specifically says that only certain regulations from the Old Testament are still in force.
Acts 15:19-20
19 “It is my judgment, therefore, that we should not make it difficult for the Gentiles who are turning to God. 20 Instead we should write to them, telling them to abstain from food polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from the meat of strangled animals and from blood.

It is very much a religious issue for many people.
I'm sorry. My uncle runs a center for people with severe head injuries. The very week the helmet law went in place, his new referrals dropped 90%.

And yet wouldn't gay marriage be an example of a homosexual act? Or are gay marriages like some heterosexual marriages?
You are assuming that homosexuals were born that way. That research has since been disproven, BTW.

Because the judge is friends will the Apple lawyers since she worked for them for 6 years prior to becoming a judge. Does that help?
