| Oh yeah I forgot to say that they are called Satanists becuase of their rejection of God, or rejection of the way the world currently is. Most Satanists want a better world (not just destruction which the name Satan implies), which alot of people dont get. I think Marilyn Manson is mis-interpreted the same way. | |

| Brick how can their be Satan with no god? I'm not big on satanism, but if that is their beleif then yeah they are some stupid mother fuckers. If you beleive in Satan, in turn you beleive in god right? Bah, fuckin idiot people I swear. Some people will do anything for attention, like say become a satanist? Anyways, great song, gotta love the chrous. | |

| Muzzy...I just may shoot you, motherfucker. Honestly, next time you attempt to criticize somebody, it would help you to have at least a basic idea of what you are saying. Not only have you proven to me that you are ignorant on the subject of Satanism, you have also proven to me how funny you are to laugh at! Hail Satan! | |

| I am not sure if this has already been mentioned here, but this song, "The Reflecting God" was the one that influenced Kip Kinkler(sp), to set up bombs all over his house.. kill his parents, then go to his school and shootup some fellow students and teachers. I am sure Manson did not intend to have one of his songs interpreted in such a way, though. | |

| For those saying satanism is hypocritical because to believe in Satan you have to believe in God is missing the point. Satanists don't believe in either Satan or God (since to believe in one you believe the other). You are your own God. And just like any other religion there are countless variations of Satanism. And yes this song rocks! | |

| People really misunderstand this a lot, Manson DOES NOT worship the devil. I really don't know about satanism but I'm sure theres some steps in it, for example there are many sides to a religion (so probably same w/ satanism) MM's a smart guy, believe me, he doesn't worship the devil. | |
