Only very young goths who don't get out much.

When they're 30, they'll have kids and allotments and ride their bikes a lot.

It's cute.

Out of the couple hundred Wiccans I've met, I've only met a couple that were Goth-sh.

Wicca is a polytheistic religion. We believe in god(s) and goddess(es). Many either do not believe in the Christian god, or believe that he is one among many gods but is not what he is described to be by many Christians. Most Wiccans honor the Prue-Christian pagan gods.

I have yet to meet a Wiccan who was Goth, however I won't doubt that there are perhaps a few who are, but they do not represent the religion as a whole.

They believe in dual deities: A God AND A Goddess

Here is some GOOD information on Wicca:

Yes, Wicca is duo theistic. They believe in a God and a Goddess who are equal and united.

And it is for anyone, not just Goths. There are plenty of Gothic Christians, Jews, atheists- etc, goth is just a style, they can be whatever they want, we all can be.

Wicca is a religion. Goth is a subculture. While goths are welcome among Wiccans, so are everyone else. There's nothing particularly Gothic about Wicca.

Wicca is a modern, polytheistic religion with ritual generally centered upon a patron god and goddess. It stresses polarity and balance, as well as responsibility for ones own actions. Wiccans see the physical and spiritual worlds as being intimately connected. Wicca is an esoteric religion, with the real truths of it being learned through experience, rather than through instruction. The various practices of Wicca are to help people find those experiences and lessons. Wicca has no prophet and no holy books.

So, no, Wiccans do not believe in the monotheistic god of Christianity.

I'm having trouble connecting the question with the description.

Wiccans are polytheistic
