Changes
'''Goth''' in modern usage is an obsession with black symbolism a term often given to a style of music, a type of dress, and anti-religious expression. It manifests itself among youth by wearing black clothing/or a subculture; all of which were originally derived from bands such as Siouxsie & The Banshees, black hair dyeBauhaus, and zombie-like behaviorthe Cure. It can appear Goth fashion typically consists of a conspicuous affection for black clothing (descended of [[SatanPunk]]ic or antiand its general preference of monotonous color patterns in attire),effeminate dress for both males and females and makeup of course though generally only to accentuate the features of ones face and a hearkening back to the days of Glam-[[Christian]] in naturerock to which it also traces its roots.
== Criticism from the Christian point of view == It is often labeled as [[categorySatan]]ic or anti-[[Christian]] in nature, although a large Christian Goth community exists, and Goths are not necessarily anti-Christian. Though some goths are Christian, some of them are atheists, anti-Christians and even [[Satanist]]s. Often these non-Christian goths walk beside normal youngsters. Goth culture has its roots in music. It comes from gothic/death/punk rock and from gothic metal, which are very doomish styles of music, without hope and fun. This kind of music is characteristically melancholic. Also, many goths like to play role-playing games and especially [[LARP]]s. They play vampires and so on in these games. At least some subsets of Goth culture can be clearly seen as a [[cult]]s such as the EMO (see external link). ==External links==*[http:ethnicities//christiangoth.com/ Christian Goth .com]*[http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-400953/EMO-cult-warning-parents.html "EMO cult warning for parents"] [[categoryCategory:roman historyCulture]]
