What happened to Media?

[Joods]

.....

My main suspicion is the reason for this is that God and religious belief in general have suffered a massive decline over the past ten years. Even many irreligious people a decade or two ago woudl claim that religion is a good thing basically and Christianity informs there world view.

bold mine. 

Got any proof that irreligious people ever said this? 

This seems to be a less and less common viewpoint with each passing year.

Irreligious people don't have that viewpoint. That's one of the things that makes them irreligious. Again - proof?

If one isn't as connected to God, I have heard one's intellect becomes more clouded and confused.

Where did you hear this? Your pastor? Your head? Of course this is the opinion you hold. You're brainwashed by the close-minded religious world. 

Maybe this is the reason so much junky fast food equivalent and nihilistic television is so popular. Maybe that is why there is little to no inspiration for new ideas.

 

One doesn't need religion to have "inspiration" for new ideas. I don't think you really thought all of this through much. 

Or maybe in it's 80 some years of existence, Hollywood and television are almost fresh out of ideas and can only really rehash what already has been done. Any thoughts?

Can't really say why tv is so mundane now. I have been a "cord cutter" since 2012. If I want news - I come here because someone is always on top of the important stuff I'm interested in. 

Have you bothered to check out the Sci-fi channels on cable? They'll probably stimulate your mind more than the reality tv crap that peppers networks now these days.
