I know a lot of Goths who are Christians, and while this surprised me at first, I actually think that the icon-worship and preoccupation with sentiment, as opposed to reason, of Goth, makes it a very attractive proposal to Christians, (especially Catholics, but not just them.) What other mainstream youth cult has such a fixation with love over death, eternal bonds, the struggle against darkness, and blood symbolism? People expect Christians to be annoyed by the way Goths hijack religious imagery, but why would they? They'd have to be very humourless not to appreciate this skewed compliment.
