Burning Times On-line Special Honors:
'Reverend Manson' Many of you veer Marilyn Manson as evil and/or disgusting. Well
listen up!!! To those who find him "disgusting"- prejudice is ugly not him. To those who find him dangerous - Take a moment to listen to his lyrics. You might learn a thing or two. To those who think he's putting on an "act"- Most people are putting on an act. People dress "normal" so the "normal" crowd will applause and come back for the next show. To those who thinks he's trying to make a statement - Who isn't? The most common statement people are trying to make is: 'I am just like you, do not fear me, accept me.' At least he's not afraid of what people think. To those who are repulsed by his appearance - Do fat people repulse you? How about pimples? Scars? What about dark-skinned people? Do hippies repulse you? How about gay people? Do people with pink hair repulse you? What about short people? Guess what type of person repulses us? A person who is repulsed by the appearance of any human. Prejudice comes in all shapes and fashions.
You don't have to like him, But if you want to spit on him, stone him, ban him, lock him up, take off his make-up, burn him on a cross or dress him in your fashions, then history has taught you nothing. We urge you to question the roots of your disgust and/or hate. EVERYONE ELSE WHO EITHER ENJOYS, RESPECTS OR MERELY TOLERATES MARILYN MANSON, WE ARE THANKFUL THAT WE SHARE THIS EARTH WITH THE LIKES OF YOU. THE
BOTTOM LINE: TOLERATION NOT PERSECUTION "Hats off!, Mr. Manson. I salute your "wicked" ways, a witch in drag (with a bit more flare than most). There is beauty in the dark and the light can often blind. ~ A Master |
The unspeakable needs to be heard.
