- I wish I had more time to go into it further, but there is not a firm
- relation between Devil-worship and the Gothic subculture. For example,
- many of the people here are pagan/wiccan/heathen. There are also a
- large number of Catholics and recovering Catholics attracted (for obvious
- reasons) to the gothic aesthetic.
-
- In my opinion, there are two branches of what is known as gothic, and
- one of them is more Heavy Metal/Satan oriented. Fortunately, I do not
- have to deal with that here.
