Today I learned that there are Christian goth bands.

Christians culturally appropriate almost everything so they can have their own sandbox version that is compatible (or more accurately, that they can control) with their beliefs.
@amorablackrose There are Christian Metal bands so this doesn’t come as all that much of a surprise. Are they any good?
@amorablackrose Eh, I'm an atheist. If people want to explore their faith via a particular musical style, that's fine by me, it's all fictional. Your Life On Hold's Buddhist stuff doesn't bother me, so a Christian band's wouldn't either.
@crinolinerobot yep. Each to their own. We each come to our understanding/beliefs(or lack thereof), in our own way, and in our own time. As long as people aren't trying to convince others that their way is the "only right way", live and let live etc. One person's fiction is another person's reality.
@amorablackrose This is news to me … and yet, I feel as though I was prepared for the revelation.
