No one takes Christian rock music seriously, not even most Christians. It\u2019s not a lack of ability among the musicians performing it that negates its popularity. Rather, it is the repetitiveness of its subject matter.<\/p>\n

Christian rock ended up this way because the starting point for writing any Christian rock song is, and must be, that we\u2019re going to write Christian music. You\u2019ve already eliminated 99% of all possible topics from your art before creating it. The result is a song that accomplishes the goal of being Christian, but not much else.<\/p>\n

Now Hollywood, and for that matter, nearly the entire world, has the same problem.<\/p>\n

Living In A Messaging First World<\/strong><\/h3>\n

My daughter started college for the first time this week. She\u2019s a high school senior, but also a genius, so she\u2019s getting a jump on credits at the local county community<\/a> college. Or she will, if she ever gets past the part in her math classes where she wastes time writing essays apologizing for her whiteness and lamenting the existence of men.<\/p>\n

If this were only something she was being subjected to in college, I\u2019d be mostly concerned about how the school is wasting her time by not teaching any academics. But it\u2019s not just at school. This messaging is everywhere and in everything, and it\u2019s been that way for a while.<\/p>\n

boring<\/strong> (adj.)<\/em> \u2014 marked by excessive repetition or predictable sameness that results in mental fatigue and diminished engagement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

What\u2019s more, it\u2019s not just in everything; it\u2019s the first thing<\/strong> in everything. Architecture courses start out by making statements about equity and cop violence, and then later get around to bridge geometry. It\u2019s no different than those Christian rock songs that start out being about Jesus, before they\u2019re allowed to become music.<\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t make music better, and it\u2019s probably not good for bridges. Maybe that\u2019s why so many have collapsed in recent years.<\/p>\n

How Ideology Makes Your Entertainment Boring<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Because it\u2019s everywhere all the time, it\u2019s boring. It\u2019s in our entertainment too, which should be the one place we can go not to be bored.<\/p>\n

Case in point: Apple is planning to release a hot new show called The Savant<\/em>. Guess what it\u2019s about? A brave lady investigating how terrible white people are.<\/p>\n
