GRAND RAPIDS, Michigan (AP) – – Rolling Stone magazine declined to run an advertisement for a new translation of the Bible aimed at young people, the nation’s largest Bible publisher said Wednesday.

Who cares? Rolling Stone has gone downhill in the past 10 years. It’s too pop-culture. The covers are always trashy, at first glance it looks like a porno mag. I’m tired of seeing Christina Aguilera or Britney Spears sprawed on a bed with a tiger and wearing some sort of a loin cloth. (I exaggerate.)
