15, or a song on the Marilyn Manson album The High End of Low, which features one of Vincent and I’s favorite songs, We’re From America.

Marilyn Manson is still the prominent horror-metal figure around, so even though he’s become one of the biggest fuckups around, he still rules. We got to see a drunken performance by him back in August, and he still has presence. Even if he’s a complete ass.

According to this article on USA Today written by the uh…. Religion New Service (serious WTF), 59% of Americans believe in Hell, but 74% believe in Heaven. Now look, I know if you’re viewing this site from outside of the US you already think we’re all idiots, but I think maybe this statistic has a reasonable explanation – there are plenty of people who believe some form of an “afterlife” or a “happy after death place Nirvana thing” and that can be described as Heaven, right? So there are more of those people than there are Christians who believe in “Hell.” I’m sticking to it.
