According to Faber, religion has changed significantly. Jesus, for example, has become part of the family on the parlor walls, and the Christian message has changed, too:
He's a regular peppermint stick now, all sugar-crystal and saccharine when he isn't making veiled references to certain commercial products that every worshipper absolutely needs.

According to Faber, religion has changed significantly. Jesus, for example, has become part of the family on the parlor walls, and the Christian message has changed, too:
He's a regular peppermint stick now, all sugar-crystal and saccharine when he isn't making veiled references to certain commercial products that every worshipper absolutely needs.
In other words, the message of Christianity has been hijacked by advertisers who use religion to sell more of their products. The moral essence of religion, therefore, has been removed and replaced by materialism and entertainment.
In Faber's opinion, this is a negative change. He wonders, for example, if God would even recognize Jesus. He has been hijacked by the media and given a commercial value.
For Faber, this negative change to religion goes hand in hand with censorship. Just as the media and the government have destroyed education and learning, they have also destroyed religious morality and the concept of piety.
