Dear John,

<p>For too long, huge corporations have turned a quick profit by ridiculing Christian beliefs, and sure we&rsquo;d stay quiet.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Now, Apple TV has crossed the line. And we&rsquo;re going on the offensive.</strong></p> <p>If you missed our earlier emails, here&rsquo;s the short version of why so many Christians (and, frankly, a lot of non-Christians who value decency and respect) are livid:</p> <p>In a shocking scene from Apple TV+&rsquo;s &ldquo;Your Friends &amp; Neighbors,&rdquo; two intruders break into a church, stride to the altar, and steal bread Christians recognize as consecrated hosts. They dunk it in jam, smirk through a mock prayer, joke about the body of Christ, stage a fake confession, and cheapen the pews with a sex act while the abandoned sacred bread lies on the floor.</p> <p>I was shocked and furious when I saw what Apple allowed to be streamed on its platform. I think you would be too. This wasn&rsquo;t satire.</p> <p>&nbsp;It was calculated, approved, and broadcast into millions of homes around the world.<br /> A direct attack on the Christian faith and Christians&mdash;and they thought we&rsquo;d do nothing.</p> <p>They were wrong.</p> <p>Over <strong>200,000 peopl</strong>e have already signed our petition. We&rsquo;ve already rattled Apple.&nbsp;</p> <p>But this is just the beginning.</p> <p>Now we&rsquo;re preparing a full-scale <strong>boycott campaign</strong> to confront Apple in the public square and make them regret ever mocking our faith.</p> <p><strong>But to do it right, we need your help. That&rsquo;s why I&rsquo;m asking for your help with a one-time gift today:</strong></p>

<p><strong>If we stay silent, Apple wins.</strong></p> <p>They&rsquo;ll take our silence as permission to mock us again&mdash;and go even further next time.</p> <p>Because when blasphemy is met with apathy, it spreads. What&rsquo;s sacred gets pushed out of public life&mdash;and replaced with contempt. Young people&rsquo;s hearts turn cynical and cold.</p> <p>That&rsquo;s how your Christian rights and values die: not with violence, but with mockery met by silence.</p> <p>Apple loves to preach &ldquo;diversity&rdquo; and &ldquo;inclusion,&rdquo; but then mock Christian beliefs. The same company that tiptoes around other faiths and foreign regimes had no qualms streaming a sexualized attack on Christianity into millions of homes.&nbsp;</p> <p>They think we&rsquo;re easy to ignore. They assume we&rsquo;ll shrug, scroll, and forget.</p> <p><strong>Let&rsquo;s prove them wrong.</strong></p> <p>Your one-time donation will help us launch a massive, visible response&mdash;with newspaper ads, banners in major cities, vans circling Apple&rsquo;s HQ, and a global Christian boycott that hits them where it hurts.</p> <p>This battle won&rsquo;t be won in a day. But if we rise together now, we can make Apple feel the full weight of what it means to mock the world&rsquo;s largest faith.</p> <p><strong>Chip in today and send a message: blasphemy has consequences.</strong></p>
