Goths often wear Christian crosses or Christian crucifixes, which many regard as a pre-Christian religious symbol. Others wear New Age/ancient Egyptian Ankh symbols. Some do this as expression of their religious beliefs, some for satire, and others because they like their appearance.

Religion is frequently discussed on the Goth newsgroups. Many songs, band names and album titles have Christian themes. 6

The public incorrectly commonly associates Goths with Marilyn Manson.


(btw im wearing a marilyn manson shirt atm )

Pardon my ignorance but, around here Goths are just Freaky Little Kids who don't fit into the "In" group so have to find an alternate!

Doesn't seem to be anything to do with religion round ere!

Apart from the "Not Washing" religion! . . . They stick by this like glue!

LOL
LOVElife Reviewed by LOVElife on . Goths Rule Goth in its simplest form, is a subculture. A group of people who feel comfortable within each others company. There is no specific thing that defines what you need to do or be to fit into the goth scene (except of course the implied black clothing). People in the goth scene all have different musical tastes, follow different religions, have different occupations, hobbies, and fashion sense. Rating: 5
