The Church Of Mac - Takes Love Of Apple To Religious Level

Written by Tim on Thursday, March 13th, 2008 in MAC, Television.

Former “Mac Genius” Tony Edwards has taken the sometimes fanatical love of the Apple Inc. to it’s logical conclusion by creating “The Church of Mac”. Edwards portrays the fictional character, “The Reverend Doctor Bobby Newton”, whom he describes as “a mash-up of Stephen Colbert, Dr. Michael Beckwith (of Oprah fame) and The Onion.”

Edwards’ website, features a series of video iPodcasts, in which “Dr. Bobby” gives computer advice to “brothers and sisters in Apple”, leads them in the recitation of “Steve’s Prayer” and invites Mac users worldwide to sing Apple hymns with “The Church of Mac Gospel Karaoke”. Although Edwards is no longer associated with Apple, the podcasts have been approved by the company and are freely available at the iTunes Store. (more…)
