The Devil is not real? Well to say that would be to implicate that you actually know who the biblical devil is. It would be stupid to say that this band is satanic as that general term is a bad joke all together. The essence of evil is not an image of dark or horror themed montages like portrayed in the media as A christian I could give you a much deeper understanding of the actual devil. Slipknot nor Marlyn Manson are satanic and they are no more evil then anyone else in the world including my self. I definitely enjoy all types of music especially metal but often times I ask why so much image gets caught up in the mix up of music but the simple answer to that! The selling point is attention in order to get more peeps interested they dress up which is a very simple and intelligent choice it also helps group there fans together with the image in its self. I am not going to give you in depth info on the biblical devil but I will tell you this the current image you see that looks exactly like pan from greek mythology is the absolute stupidity of the catholic churches in effort to demonize other beliefs. Look up the word syncretism! If your going to blame anyone for problems in the world look no further then humanity that is a truth which also can be found in the bible.
