A guy who I used to work with went to a private catholic school. One day he brought this paper to us. The school had sent every kid home with a flyer for their parents. They had decided to warn parents that the child they know and love, may just be....GOTH. And apparently that means they are Knights In Satan's Service! Read the notice below.
Listed below are some warning signs to indicate if your child may have gone astray from the Lord. Gothic (or goth) is a very obscure and often dangerous culture that young teenagers are prone to participating in. The gothic culture leads young, susceptible minds into an imagined world of evil, darkness, and violence. Please seek immediate attention though counseling, prayer, and parental guidance to rid your child of Satan’s temptations if five or more of the following are applicable to your child:
- Frequently wears black clothing.
- Wears band and/or rock t-shirts.
- Wears excessive black eye makeup, lipstick or nail polish.
- Wears any odd, silver jewelry or symbols. Some of these include: reversed crosses, pentagrams, pentacles, ankhs, or various other Satanic worshiping symbols.
- Shows an interest in piercing or tattoos.
- Listens to gothic or any other anti-social genres of music. (Marilyn Manson claims to be the anti-Christ, and publicly speaks against the Lord. Please discard any such albums IMMEDIATELY.)
- Associates with other people that dress, act or speak eccentrically.
- Shows a declining interest in wholesome activities, such as: the Bible, prayer, church, or sports.
- Shows an interest in death, vampires, magic, the occult, witchcraft, or any thing else that involves Satan.
- Takes drugs.
- Drinks alcohol.
- Is suicidal and/or depressed.
- Cuts, burns or partakes in any other method of self-mutilation. (This is a Satanic ritual that uses pain to detract from the light of God and his love. Please seek immediate attention for this at your local mental health center)
- Complains of boredom.
- Sleeps too excessively or too little.
- Is excessively awake during the night.
- Dislikes sunlight or any other form of light. (This pertains to vampires promoting the idea that His light is of no use.)
- Spends large amounts of time alone.
- Requests time alone and quietness. (This is so that your child may speak to evil spirits through meditation.)
- Insists on spending time with friends while unaccompanied by an adult.
- Misbehaves at school.
- Misbehaves at home.
- Eats excessively or too little.
- Eats Goth-related foods. Count Dracula cereal is an example of this.

(Hold up! What the fuck is Count Dracula cereal? Do they mean this)
(Yeah man...he looks Goth & Satanic to me!)
_______________________________________________
- Drinks blood or expresses an interest in drinking blood. (Vampires this is how to attain Satan. This act is very dangerous and should be stopped immediately.)
- Watches cable television or any other corrupted media sources. (Ask your local church for proper programs that your child may watch.)
- Plays video games that contain violence or role-playing nature.
- Uses the Internet excessively and frequently makes time for the computer.
- Makes Satanic symbols and/or violently shakes head to music.
- Dances to music in a provocative or sexual manner.
- Expresses an interest in sex.
- Masturbates
- Is homosexual and/or bisexual.
- Pursues dangerous cult religions. Such include: Satanism, scientology, Philosophy, Paganism, Wicca, Hinduism, and Buddhism.
- Wears pins, stickers, or anything else that contains these phrases: “I’m so gothic, I’m dead” , “woe is me”, “I’m a goth”. (o_O)
- Claims to be a goth.
If five or more of these apply to your child, please intervene immediately. The gothic culture is dangerous and Satan thrives within it. If any of these problems persist, enlist your child into your local mental health center.
