Religious Beliefs

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Yup. But far more entertaining in his role as Gareth Keenan. :lol:

Eldritch´s past lyrics have been steeped in Christian iconography, especially the whole idea of The Sisterhood project. Does anyone know what religion his childhood is rooted in?

I would guess (from the Adrenochrome lyrics) that he was brought up a Catholic. But it's just a guess.

Thank you. I thought something was going on in the Catholic sense.

If he wasn't brought up a Catholic, then I'd imagine he was very "high church" Church of England.

Of course, from what I understand from interviews and so forth, I don't think he's a believer these days.

Well if you're suggesting that religion is a drug then I did cold turkey many years ago.

Commited aethiest although I have slightly more tolerance for other peoples beliefs than some would say that their beliefs accord my position but I'm nice like that.

Actually I'm not but I like to occasionally pretend that I'm not callous just to see how it feels. :?
Something pithy.

Religious?

Definately not. I stear clear of all that organised stuff.

Anybody willing to believe in a book (the bible/Koran or anything for that matter) that was written, and then re-written again and again throughout history by a man and then expects you to worship an invisible entity really should have their head examined.

There's only one person you should believe in - that's yourself.
