QUESTION : Doesn't the Bible say not to judge?

ANSWER: Yes. However, you probably don't understand what that means. It means not to judge unrighteously, it means not to judge using your human judgment, and it means not to judge hypocritically. In other words, don't substitute your judgment for God's, and don't judge other people when you are guilty of impenitently engaging in the same sins (i.e., Don't cast the first stone).

However, there are several verses in the Bible where we are told to judge.

"Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment" John 7:24.

"But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man" I Corinthians 2:15.

"Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?" I Corinthians 6:2.

Many Goths take the first verse mentioned here as an excuse for me not to judge or preach to them, however they do not understand what this means either.  By saying "Judge not according to appearance", this verse is teaching not to pass judgement on someone who is deprived or underprivileged. It is saying not to think you are better than someone else just because they cannot afford to dress or live as well as you. It is in no way telling you not to judge someone for dressing like a freak in whorish Goth clothing, fishnet and PVC, because the Bible teaches that dressing in a perverse and depraved sexual manner is a direct offence to God.

QUESTION: Doesn't the Bible teach you to love your neighbor?

ANSWER: I fail to see how this is relevant? Many Goths have made this point to me, however I ask them in return to look up their dictionary and tell me the definition of the word 'neighbor'. Because they must have a different translation to mine.

Let me make myself clear. Our Church is situated in the Country. Our neighbors are FARMERS, NOT GOTHS. So I ask again, what's your point?

QUESTION : You say all Goths are freaks, perverts and homosexuals. Well my son is a Goth, but he is a decent kid who has a girlfriend. They seem like very happy and well adjusted teenagers.

ANSWER : You may not realize it, but you have just hit the nail on the head. They ‘seem’ like well adjusted teenagers. Yes, your son may indeed have a girlfriend, and everything may ‘seem’ normal to you. But do you monitor his every move? NO! Because I would be willing to bet that when you are not around he gets up to all sorts of sick twisted perversions. He probably has 2 or 3 male friends who anally rape him on a regular basis. He also probably drinks babies’ blood, and engages in orgies with animals, some of whom will be dead. His girlfriend is probably having lesbian sex with many of her so-called ‘harmless’ Gothic friends also. ALL Goths are deviants. Make no mistake - your son is in very real danger here.

QUESTION : Why do Goths smell?

ANSWER : Ahhh... This used to be a joke I'd often tell at our Church. "Why Do Goths smell? - So that blind folks can hate them too". ha ha. But in all seriousness, this IS a very big problem. The personal hygene of a goth, or lack of it, is a very serious matter. We used to think that Goths stank worse than tramps and vagrants due to the fact that most of them were fat ugly losers with serious depression, and were too suicidal to bother bathing or taking care of themselves. But lately we have found out different.

This real answer of course is a relatively simple one. Goths go out their way to dress like the dead, they want to look like corpses. It really doesn’t take some fancy degree in the study of mental illness and psychotherapy mumbo jumbo to put 2 and 2 together, and realize they want to smell like corpses too. The reality is that Goths want to stink. They take great pride in it. Bad personal hygiene to a Goth, is like smelling of excrement to a faggot. Goths want to smell as bad as possible, and some even go as far as washing their bodies in month-old pigs blood, and letting it rot all over themselves. The stench of a Goth is unbearable to most normal folks. You know a goth walked past me in the street just the other day stinking of puke and horseshit and stale urine, and a woman I had never met turned to me, gesturing towards the goth, and said "Stinking bastard!". It was quite disgusting. You see these losers with their greasy long unwashed hair, normally dyed black or whatever stupid color they felt like that day. Goths can generally dye their hair a different color every day, since they have so much spare time on their hands like the worthless welfare-cheat jobless scum they are.
