I was just flipping through some youtube pranks , and for some reason some kid had a video of him (marilyn manson) speaking about how millions of religions have benn worshiping a dead guy on a stick . And obviously you know who hes talking about and if you don't then leave this thread , and look up Jesus Christs crusifiction . Anyways this guy ( you can even call him a girl ) is a class A freek . And I would like some one to tell me why he isn't . I still don't know how peaple can agree with this worshipper of the anti christ .
So do you think this guy is a freak of nature , and do you agree with him on what he says about religious topics ?
Well, it is sum what accurate, but completely anti-semetic. I don't see what peoples problem with religion is. I mean, how is it harming them that some people need something to believe in? I'm not religious, but I believe in God and I don't see why people can't come to the conclusion that something controls everything. It may not be God that most people believe in or it could be. So I think that they're just as bad as everyone who knows that god controls everything. The only time we will ever figure that out is when we're dead.
He brings up good points, like how the crucifix is the largest mass marketed peice of merchandise in the world. I am not a religous person, but I do accept there is a God or at least some all-knowing all powerful being, but I do agree with Manson on this point.
I still don't know how peaple can agree with this worshipper of the anti christ.
He was rasied under his mothers religion (Episcopalian) while growing up and attended Heritage Christian School in Canton, Ohio from the first to tenth grade. Just becasue his lyrics attack religious belifes and settings doesn't make him a worshipper of the anti-christ
He just tries to make a point that religion can create a band-aid for the harsh reality that we live in. He calls it the God band-aid in this video at about 9:57 mins. He gives examples of how people can commit terrible acts and then say they believe in God so it's okay. All he does is look at things from a different view point, but because of the way he looks and what he sings about people use him as a scape goat.

its not ok. if a christian came up to me and killed the guy next to me and said its ok, it wouldnt be. i have to agree with him on that particular peice. not the whole thing.
Religion is crazy. Ever hear of the movie "religilous" i think... it was about a comidian who got on stage and said " I belive in....." And he would say characteristics of a religion without saying its name. And they were all real. At the end people would say "That does not exist." or "your making that up." And he would say "Christianity" or "Islam". You would be surprised.
On a unrelated note, he is like Lady GaGa's boyfriend, if your read Rolling stone magazine.
He isn't because he just does it for publicity, and it works. He makes himself as socially repulsive and offensive as he can to attract attention. Attention = Record Sales and Concert Attendants = Money.
I think Johnnypants is just plain ignorant. The reason he looks the way he does is because it's meant ot be a fusion of genders. His name Marilyn Manson is meant to be fusing the beauty of Marilyn Monroe and the disturbing evil of Charles Manson, the point is that there is alot in everyone that people don't realise. He looks that way because he likes metal so to fit the bill he needs to look darker. He is actually a very intelligent man, he made up all the shit you hear about him and it worked because people talk about him. It's just like when he got The Spazzies to open at his shwo whe nI was him. It's all about working people up so they blurt out an opinion for themselves.
Also, do you have any proof of him saying he worships the anti-christ? Because I have seen none. I hope you feel like a fool now, if you don't then reread what I said.

For one thing, yes, Christians do worship Jesus, who is by physical nature, a dead man on a stick. Manson has a dislike for religion - does that define him as a freak?
You can't call him a girl, because he's a male shock-rocker who has shocked your socks off apparently. I have to assume you're very young if you've not heard of Manson before now. He, similar to groups like Alice Cooper, or perhaps farther away but related, Gwar, uses shock value with image to make sales (as previous people have already posted). He also had an interesting childhood, and he actually has a great amount of insight.
He isn't a freak more than any of us are. I would suggest you read his book, The Long Hard Road Out of Hell, and then perhaps YOU will have some insight, rather than making irrational assumptions because you saw ONE youtube video.
Well he is a little creepy but really how can you believe in a guy on a stick
Its Jesus Christ on a CROSS ! Can you get that through your brain .
its not ok. if a christian came up to me and killed the guy next to me and said its ok, it wouldnt be. i have to agree with him on that particular peice. not the whole thing.
His eyes always scares me . He loves demonic things so much he looks like a man posse set from a demon . (he probably is ) The real thing that makes me sick is that he removed some body parts from his stomach so that he could drink his ...... Im not going to say it because there are kids under aged here , but you know what I mean .
They're called contacts, they don't make hima freak. Also, what demonic things does he love?
You can't even resight the lies properly. The rumour is that he had his bottom set of ribs removed so he could perform oral sex on himself. Like I said, all those shocking rumours were spread by his public relations team. Learn to read. YOu fail.
Lol, it seriously amuses me how much people freak out if someone says quite the opposite of what they believe. Shock = attention, people! Now, he didn't say something that was wrong, did he? After all, Jesus was pretty dead when he hung on his cross...
Worshipping the Anti-Christ makes Christians cringe, I know. After all, the beast is trying to ruin our world right? Well... from what I've seen, it's hardly satanists who do that. Actually, deeply religious people are more likely to do so, out of a misguided sense of how the world should be. As far as removing body parts, I can't find anything about that. If you're referring to that video where he looks like a mannequin, yeah duh - special effects. Besides, if he didn't have a 'ackage', I doubt Dita von Teese would've stayed with him as long as she did.
Seriously people... freedom of speech also implies the freedom to adopt a certain image, and it's very much possible not everyone agrees with that image. Not agreeing with it, but allowing it to continue is exactly what free speech is about

Sorry I missed the ribs part -_- But how is that not freakish ! I think its disgusting , and and disturbing.
think Johnnypants is just plain ignorant. The reason he looks the way he does is because it's meant ot be a fusion of genders
Why and the world do you think I said you could call him a girl !?!?!?
know that and why do you believe in him?
Because we baptist have the bible to prove that he is real.And in the bible it says things will happen on earth and they did! Theres much more but I got to scoot , because I actually have a job unlike you people = )
