I don't think it's quite accurate to associate Goths with anti-religious sentiment, especially as I know people who are associated with Christian Goth ministries that get people to go to church who never would otherwise. I will concede that it's a stereotype, but it's not essential to the identity of being a Goth. DanH 00:37, 18 August 2007 (EDT)
