I don't think Jimmy Z is quite understanding what "Mr." Cook is getting at in "his" Bloomberg Business Week column. "He"'s not puffing "him"self up over "his" "achievement" in jamming "his" coaxial cable into other "men"'s USB ports (or vice versa, if "he"'s a "catcher" and not a "pitcher"). It's the cultural statement it makes, a major corporate CEO (the "evil robber barons" of society in any other context, remember) "coming out of the closet" and unabashedly "hugging the root". It's straight out of Romans 1:32: "[A]nd although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them."
Most likely it's a corrupt public relations ploy to curry favor with the tyrannical "First Gay President".
Or so I gather from some of the jaw-droppingly insane rhetorical inversions "Mr." Cook burbled forth:
Cook says that while he never denied his sexuality, he never publicly acknowledged it, either.
Stop the tape. Now what was wrong with leaving it at that? Don't ask, don't tell. Tim Cook is choosing sexual perversion and eventual eternal damnation, at least for now, but that's "his" choice to make. It had (past tense; now it's the entirety of his professional identity) no requisite bearing or effect on the performance of "his" duties as Apple CEO. I've said this many times, and I'll reiterate it here and now: In my 26-year accounting career I probably had at least one homosexual colleague, and perhaps more. I know there was one individual that everybody suspected of "putting from the rough," but none of us ever inquired. Why? Because it wasn't any of our business, any more than you would ask your production manager how wildly his wife's boobs jiggle when she's riding him cowgirl style. Privacy is inherent to romantic intimacy. Some things are not - or ought not be - the topic of public discourse.
Until now. Now Tim Cook isn't the CEO of Apple, "he"'s the QUEER CEO of Apple. Company directives have probably already gone out to all Apple employees requiring them to emulate the boss's "lifestyle" on penalty of summary termination. And it really it wouldn't have to be that, er, "explicit"; certainly the message has been received loud and clear by any evangelical Christian employees Apple may still have: "Your kind is no longer wanted here; get out."
Don't think so? Remember what happened to Brendan Eich last spring?
"So let me be clear: I'm proud to be gay, and I consider being gay among the greatest gifts God has given me," Cook said in the article. [emphasis added]
Which "god" would that be, Tim? The Great Cosmic Trouser Trout? Next thing you know the Lavender Lobby will be saying that the LORD Himself is "gay," and they'll be re-writing the Holy Bible in their own Dirty Sanchez image. Indeed, that, along with outlawing heterosexuality and mandating homosexuality, are about the only items they have left on their "shopping" list.
Tim Cook has made the biggest "splash" in the bathhouse, but "he" wasn't the first:
Cook's public declaration that he is gay comes a little more than two months after Robert Hanson — the former CEO of American Eagle Outfitters Inc. — wrote a piece for Time in which he talked about being an openly gay man for as long as he's been in business and running companies.
Hanson is currently the CEO of luxury jewelry brand John Hardy.
There are no other publicly gay CEOs of major companies. United Therapeutics Corp. CEO Martine Rothblatt, who was born male and is now female, has been open about her transgender status.
They're just the vanguard, purple penguins. There'll be plenty more sexually confused CEOs where they came from, and a like rising "tide" of anti-Christian persecution to match.
It harkens back to this Scriptural passage:
For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to pits of darkness, reserved for judgment; and did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when He brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly; and if He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to destruction by reducing them to ashes, having made them an example to those who would live ungodly lives thereafter; and if He rescued righteous Lot, oppressed by the sensual conduct of unprincipled men (for by what he saw and heard that righteous man, while living among them, felt his righteous soul tormented day after day by their lawless deeds), then the LORD knows how to rescue the godly from temptation, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment, and especially those who indulge the flesh in its corrupt desires and despise authority.
Ultimately, God will win. But it's going to get unimaginably worse before it ever gets better.
