I don’t think God blesses America in some special way. The God I worship is far too big and grand to be limited to fifty states…. We think of ourselves as a chosen people, and unique in God’s eyes, but everyone s unique in God’s eyes…. There’s nothing wrong with feeling good, but love of country is not the same as love of God, and they should not be confused.
— The Reverend Peter J. Gomes, Minister of the Memorial church and professor at Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts. Quoted in the Boston Globe, September 14, 2003

No on Prop 8
October 24, 2008
Apple is publicly opposing Proposition 8 and making a donation of $100,000 to the No on 8 campaign. Apple was among the first California companies to offer equal rights and benefits to our employees’ same-sex partners, and we strongly believe that a person’s fundamental rights — including the right to marry — should not be affected by their sexual orientation. Apple views this as a civil rights issue, rather than just a political issue, and is therefore speaking out publicly against Proposition 8.
