"Ninety percent of the politicians give the other ten percent a bad reputation." - Henry Kissinger

Silly pamphlet:
"Steve Jobs - you started in lowly circumstances...a garage in Los Altos, California. You founded Apple Computer and took a bite out of the rest of the industry. You pioneered a whole new way of computing.
Yes, you were ousted, but you went on to form Next Computer.
Then you came roaring back to Apple and became the King of Computer Style.
You co-founded Pixar. You brought us OSX. You invented the iPod, iTunes, and iDon't know what else.
Your critics said you had a Reality Distortion Field, but you created your own reality.
What could possibly come next? Nano-tunes? Ectoplasmic operating systems? Celebrity status on other planets?
Steve, you have done wonders for our Wired life.
But life is more than wires. Silicon can't satisfy the soul. Hi-tech won't heal the heart.
We'd like you to meet someone who is kind of like you. Someone who also started out humbly. Someone who had a good career. Someone who also took a fall and then, kind of like you did, came back to life.
Maybe you know who I'm talking about, Steve - it's Jesus the Messiah. He was born in a donkey's feeding trough, even more humble than a garage.
He was killed, but not in a power coup. He said it was his purpose to die - so that you and I could be made spiritually whole.
(You'll pardon the pun, but when Adam and Eve took a "byte" out of THE "apple," humanity lost something that no GPS system could ever locate.
When he rose from the dead, it wasn't with a new company but with new life for all of us who trust in him.
Steve, you might be able to run circles around circuits. But reality is found in Jesus. iKnow and uShould too, since your life story and his have more than a few things in common.
Besides, you know something about operating systems. Isn't it time you asked God to give you* a new OS?
Now that would be the best NeXTSTEP for you, * Steve."
The pamphlet was by Jews for Jesus. They can go fight it out with Jews for Judaism.
