It's ironic that today's New York Times chimes in with a lengthy article on
the new trend of camouflaging religion to sell it more effectively on the
web:

[...]
Mr. Reese and his Web site, www.tothenextlevel.org, embody an increasingly
popular strategy for evangelism in the Internet age. In the segmented realms
of the Web, said Tony Whitaker, editor of a guide for online evangelists,
sites that use overtly Christian material will reach only people who are
already Christians, while everyone else can click by. Unlike Christian radio
or television, the new medium calls not for powerful religious symbolism or
rhetoric but for the absence of them, he said.

So it looks like there may be job growth for IAs who are adept at
misdirection and bringing Madison Avenue to church sites.
