Oh, I know all about that -- I've written articles on _Left Behind_ and
stuff like that -- but there's no "industry" yet.  It might be feasible to
tell young people to avoid secular music and listen only to Christian
bands, thanks to the fact that there are so many bands out there and the
production values aren't too shabby these days, but there's no way you
could tell them to avoid secular films and watch Christian films only.  
There just isn't enough product, and most of it is pretty crappy.

He still does, actually, depending on whether you think Silent Planet
Records is a "Christian" label or not.  :)
