i happen to know at least two individuals who have carved satanic messages in their arms, and they are not insane at all. they actually are regular teenagers who are in school and hold steady jobs, they do admit though that the music by marilyn manson lead them to experiment with drugs and also lead them into doing this action of self-mutilation. and our youth is suffering, they see marilyn manson as a role model, and the ones who do see him as a role model are doing just the things that the two teens that i know are doing, they dress up in all kinds of outragous clothes, they get mistreated in schools by teachers and other students, and this brings them into a state of depression, which makes them very vulnerable to act out such lyrics as marilyn mansons, thus they self-mutilate and sometimes kill themselves, you do not have to be insane to perform such actions, no idea where that came from? and this does deal with evolutionary psychology, i admit it deals with it in a very abstract way, but our society is more and more accepting this type of behavior and the line must be drawn somewhere or our youth is in great danger in future years
