not to bash, but...people need to get over their preconcieved notions of how a christian should look. i understand that some believe that a christian should be the neatest most clean cut and ship-shape individual, but honestly, i find that quite unbiblical.
not to bash, but Christians need to realize that just because they don't have to fit some clean-cut mold (of which i've never been accused), they don't have the freedom to dress/act in any way they please. the counter-culture clearly represented by the below picture is obviously not a very Biblical one. besides, Jesus said that the children were to come, not to be frightened away. remember, there is a difference between breaking out of pseudo-Christian molds and embracing clearly worldly molds.
and the fact that it was just for 2 hours and only for fun seems to be completely missed...but what the heck. i'm not saying we can dress however we want to, but just not all the people who wear "goth" type clothes are demon worshipers and crak addicts. some of them simply like black. just the same as not all people who dress like preps are not lookin to get laid...they just like the style of clothing. not all people who wear cowboy boots and hats are cowboys. a persons clothing can tell some about the person, but you shouldn't judge them by what they are wearing. for example, there is a guy in our church who was into demon worship prior to becoming a believer. he still has some tattoes left from that...but he is not still a demon worshiper. and as so many people say....
The thing is... usally they only dress that way because of the attention they get. They don't care if it's negative or positive... SELFISHNESS-NESS-NESS
or maybe they want the attention cause they want people to notice them...and maybe love them a little. they may not seem like that is what they are trying to get, but you'd be suprised at how many of them will admit to it.
i am a firm believer in the saving grace of Jesus Christ. aside from that, i have been described as an inteligent daredevil. i love motorcycles and ride mine as often as i can.

"appearances can be decieving."
I still like dessert pizza.
you tell em Joe! a goth is a goth, not necessarily a devil worshiper. for example: he/she could just simply be a humble vampire.
