First of all I'd like to say that it is generaly thought that goths are either worshipers of Satan, Vampires, Witches, Atheist, or whatever type of ungodly religiouse activity that has become the serio type for goths. I on the other hand am none of those, I am a Reformed Christian (and Christian/ goths may be rare, but I am not alone), I belive that I am saved by grace an not by anything in and of my self, I belive that The Lord and my Savior The Son of God, died upon a cross to save the liveing and the dead, to save ALL who call apon his name. I was once in darkness but I have seen the blinding light and it is wonderfull and beutifull, and if you are still in the darkness I urge you to take up your cross and follow Him, for he will save your soull. If you are looking for the light but you can not find your way through the darkness I would hope that you would find a church, and if you are a teenager find one that has a good youth group, I have come so much closer to God through my youth group, (Thank you Stan, and Thank you Robyn). If you have any questions conserning Christianity, please, please writte to me I will answer your questions or I will find an answer for you. We are commanded to honor and worship Him in ALL that we do, so I thought that I should inform you of my religious belifes so that there will be no FALSE speckulations, and I will not be seen as one who is ungodly.
I would also like to say that you can not judge who I am and what I am by the cloths that I wear, and my outward apperance. I wish that goths would not have such a bad name, but that I can not change, but I can change my bad name, and make it 'good' (or as good as it can be in this earthly, mortal life).
I am sure that you may ask why I am goth if I am Christian, and if you are not well I'll tell you anyways. I am a deprest person, I have faced many trials in my life time, all people face trials, but this is my way to deal with my own inner emotions. I read some where that because most goths wear black cloths as a symbol of death and that Christian/ goths can just look at it as a reminder that we die unto our sinnful man everyday.
I suppose I should also talk about the issue of the worship of death, I do not worship death, but I am fasinated with it, I don't know why. It may have something to do with my fathers death, but I am interested in death. I know it sounds morbid, but death is beutiful because it is an escape from this hellish world in wich we dwell, but I do not worship it.
I also must say, Not all goths are deprest, or suicidal, or self mutilators, I have been and on ocassion still am all of these, I am trying to stop the self mutilation, and I haven't done it for awhile, I am only suicidal when something really bad happens, or when there are alot of little things going on, and I am deprest alot, actualy most of the time, but thankfully I have a few friends who can really make me happy, but it sucks because most of those people I only e-mail because they live too far away to actualy call. Don't assume that a person is a certain way or not a certain way just because of the way they dress.
