Being goth doesn't make someone evil. Goths aren't satan worshippers (although some satan worshippers may be goths, the two aren't connected), they're not necessarily into drugs. To me, it only means that he or she has a darker aesthetic than perhaps is mainstream.

A person who loves reading Edgar Allen Poe, is interested in the supernatural, gets a kick out of Tim Burton movies and doesn't necessarily feel he/she looks best in bright colors is eminently more gothic than, say, some kid who puts on Crow makeup and a black cape bought from Hot Topic and sashays through the mall giving all the "normal looking" people dirty looks.

Also, I have never considered Marilyn Manson to be goth.
Let me tell you. I'd beat my son real good if he wore white makeup and all black leather. He'd get beat real good. Now if I had a daughter that did it, I'd send her ass to a Swiss convent and I'm not even Catholic. I don't want the freak children. Well certain physical freakness I can live with. Webbed feet, ok. 3 eyeballs, probably not. You get the idea.

Now Marilyn Manson needs his ass beat to. It's obvious he is Paul from Wonder Years and nerd boy is rumoured to have had ribs removed so he can provide himself oral sex. Great, Kevin and Winnie would be proud.
