There's BILL MAHER.
He found a copy of The Bible as re-written to interest Millennials. Here's one of the revised Ten Commandments.
"THOU SHALT NOT STEAL. EXCEPT THINE MUSIC ONLINE."
OK, this was a comedy bit. It was based on two facts: a) a strong percentage of Millennials in America identify as agnostic or atheists, and b) they believe the Internet is their playground to get everything FREEEEEEEEE. Oh yes, and to post selfies, bully classmates, arrange hook-ups and drug pick-ups and be as hedonistic as possible. But not the hippie brand of it, which was peace and love. This is piss and shove.
Bill Maher, a Liberal in most situations, is old-fashioned when it comes to piracy. Part of the reason is he saw first-hand how it destroys sales. His documentary "Religulous" was, of course, pirated all over the Internet so people didn't have to go into theaters or wait for a DVD. He was not happy about it and said so on his show. But back to the Millennials who are indeed growing up agreeing with Bill in one way: that religion is ridiculous.
America used to be an overwhelmingly Christian nation. No more. IF I'M BEING HONEST, how can anyone believe silly fairy tales about God impregnating some Jewish woman, and this half-breed going around walking on water and turning water into wine until his Dad turned his back and watched him get killed by Roman soldiers?
Secondly, when kids grow up to a world sinking from terrorism, pollution and disease, what else would they do except lose themselves in the opiate of the masses known as The Internet? And since the economy sucks, how much money do they have to spend on music? I mean, after they've bought their $400 basketball sneakers, or spent $1600 a ticket (to a "legal" scalper) to watch an NBA finals game, where a hot dog and a beer costs $25.50?
So it was, that on Bill's 5/15/15 show (lucky number) he offered a comic bit on how Christians could re-write The Bible to bring Millennials back into the flock.
However, another reason America is no longer that sour Puritan-ethic Christian nation that had blue laws shutting down stores on Sunday, is that the immigrants are almost all NON-CHRISTIAN. And as we saw from that bombastic ending to the Boston Marathon not long ago, they include psycho-Muslims.
The show began with an interview with Ms. Ayaan Hirsi Ali, the author of "Infidel." She was born in Somalia, subjected to "female circumcision," and managed to migrate to Holland. Amazingly, this was a Muslim who did NOT believe in all the psycho rules of her religion. She was even elected to the Dutch Parliament. BUT...the Dutch Douches eventually put the pressure on her, since they'd rather not upset the Muzzies who killed Theo Van Gogh, and Ms. Ali had to flee to Cal E. Fornia, where she ended up on Maher's show promoting her latest book.
Maher loves this lady, and you can understand why. She is attractive, articulate, and her books ask Muslims to "PLEASE STOP" behaving like 16th century lunatics. This is hard when, as Bill Maher pointed out, the people of most of these Arab and African nations strongly support anti-gay, anti-women, anti-semitic and harshly conservative views.
Ayaan Hirsi Ali asks for changes: No Sharia Law. No abuse of women. No throwing gays off roof tops. Who knows, she may also agree with Maher: "No Stealing the Music."
