He does have a point... the symbol of the Apple computer is an apple with a bite out of it.
One could stretch a bit (no pun intended) and conjecture that this represents Mans fall from
grace..even celebrates it. The apple bitten is the symbol of mans separation from God.
It is the affirmation of taking in the forbidden fruit (of course Clinton bit but didnt swallow)
the missing chunk swallowed is the joining of satan to man...and sin inculcated. Man who now
possess the knowledge of good and evil...and satan's lie that you will be like God ...
Or Maybe Not.

Time to re-read your Bible. The "fruit" is never described as an apple, and --since apples are not native to the Middle East-- it is very unlikely that it was an apple. The myth that the fruit was an apple comes from northern European painters of the Renaissance.
