Criticism
Christian pop culture, being so widely available, has been open to much criticism. One charge is that Christian pop culture tends to be superficial, a lot like pop culture. Cultural items that require extensive experience, training, or introspection to be appreciated seldom become items of popular culture. Another claims that Christian pop culture is rooted more in sensationalism than reality.
Within Christianity, it is often criticized for being too secular. It is sometimes seen as being pushed by corporations to produce public consumerism, despite internal claims that it is based upon spirituality.
