Bible Question: Is being a Gothic and being Emo a part of Satanism? |
Bible Answer: Goth Subculture - Religious Elements 'Many Goths reflect the religious trends of popular culture and are usually nominal or devout Christians. Atheism, Agnosticism, the New Age, Gnosticism, Shamanism, Wicca, other Neopagan traditions, and other minority faith groups are generally represented more frequently amongst goths than in the general population. Though only a few Satanists or Luciferians are goth, and this is rare, there is a public perception that goth is frequently associated with Satanism due to an incorrect association between Marilyn Manson, his fans, and the goth movement. There is no one common religious tie that binds together the goth movement itself.[4] 'Spiritual, supernatural, and religious imagery has frequently played an important part in gothic fashion, song lyrics, and visual art. In particular, aesthetic elements from Catholicism play a major role in goth culture. Reasons for donning such imagery vary between individuals, and range from expression of religious affiliation, satire, or simply decorative effect.[4].'
