Christanitys war against the devil has always been a fight against mans most natural instincts-for sex, for violence, for self gratification- and a denia of a mans membership in the animal kingdom.

The idea of heaven is just Christianity's way of creating a hell on earth. - Marilyn Manson with Neil Straus pp. 164 Currently, the record companies that own Marilyn Manson are called: Interscope (c) and Nothing (c).
