 I don't mean to be a troll, Liberty Gal, but are you sure about the database stuff? I was just in an liberal urban Texas bookstore and I was shocked at the amount of wall space dedicated to Christian literature. I mean even bookstores who are clearly idealogically left have a serious business interest in Christian lit and Bible sales... Or maybe this is just a Texas urban sample.  
 This might be an example of the difference between the population and the bureaucracy. 
 I mean, the suspicious part of me says, yes. Also I think every book and video we consume is probably in a database :-D

sometimes, a lot of times, silence is more deadly than confession
