EMOS BELIEVE THEY GO TO THE 'BLACK PARADE' WHEN THEY DIE! -
05-18-2008, 08:32 PM
THIS article has me in shock! FINALLY, The TRUTH about Emo is being recognised - That it is a CULT! And a dangerous one at that!
It is a FACT that ALL Emos practice sinister initiation ceremonies, similar to those practiced in Satanic cults, involving self-harming and self-mutilation!
It is a FACT that when Emos die they BELIEVE they all go to 'The Black Parade'!
These, and many other FACTS discussed in the article below, tell us Emo is indeed a CULT, as I have stated all along, and possibly a more fatal cult than the Goths!
We must do all in our power to steer our Children clear of this wicked and Satanic lifestyle. A lifestyle of self abuse, cross-dressing, acting effeminite and committing suicide - BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!
Quote:
Why no child is safe from the sinister cult of emo
Hannah was a happy 13-year-old until she became an 'emo' - part of a sinister teenage craze that romanticises death. Three months later she hanged herself. Here, her devastated mother tells other parents: No child is safe
On the night before she died, she came into their room, kissed her father Raymond on the cheek and cheerfully told him: "I love you, Dad."
The following day Hannah's mother Heather went to check on her daughter and found her hanging by a tie from the top rail of her bunk bed.
From Fresh-faced to suicidal: Hannah Bond pre ‘emo’, left, and weeks before her death
She screamed for her husband to come, but try as he might it was too late: there was simply nothing that he could do to save Hannah's life.
In the unending bleakness of the weeks that have followed, the couple have fought to make sense of what happened.
Why on earth did their daughter — a popular, intelligent and attractive girl — do such a thing?
They could find only one clue: Hannah was what is known as an "emo".
Some describe it as a cult or a sect, but in reality the term — derived from the word "emotional" — encapsulates a trend that is becoming hugely popular among Britain's schoolchildren.
A trans-Atlantic import, its followers dress in black, favouring tight jeans, T-shirts, studded belts and sneakers or skater shoes.
Hair is all-important: often dyed black and straightened, it is worn in a long fringe brushed to one side of the face. Music also plays a critical role.
Emos like guitar-based rock with emotional lyrics. American bands such as My Chemical Romance, Good Charlotte and Blink 182 are particular favourites.
No doubt many adults would ask: "So what?" On the surface, it all sounds typically teenage — angst-ridden, over-dramatic and tribal.
No different, in fact, to the Goth subculture that first emerged in Britain during the early 1980s.
There is, though, growing concern that there is a deeply unhealthy undertone to the emo movement.
Some time before her death, Hannah's parents, who live in Kent, noticed scarring on the inside of her wrists.
When they questioned her about it, honest and open as ever, she told them she'd inflicted the wounds herself and that it was part of an emo "initiation ceremony".
Only after her death would they discover how she had secretly chatted online to emo followers all over the world, talking about death and of the "black parade" — a place where emos believe they go after they die.
A check of Hannah's home page on social networking site Bebo revealed her pseudonym, Living Disaster, and that she'd decorated it with a picture of an emo girl with bloody wrists.
Another picture showed a child's exercise book scrawled with the words: "Dear Diary, today I give up."
While Hannah's wrist injuries may have been slight, the issue of selfharm among adolescents is causing growing concern in British schools.
My Chemical Romance made it to No.1 in the UK chart with Welcome To The Black Parade in October 2006 - the 'black parade' is a place where all emos believe they will go when they die
New figures show that the number of children admitted to hospital due to injuries inflicted on themselves has risen by a third in five years. In 2002/03 there were 11,891 such admissions; in 2006/07 this had risen to 15,955. In both periods, there were more than three times as many admissions of girls as of boys.
Crucially, those who self-harm are more likely to go on to attempt suicide. While there is a multitude of reasons for this epidemic (exam-related stress and bullying to name but two), it is hardly surprising that the emergence of a sub-culture that appears to glamorise self-harm and even suicide is being regarded with alarm.
Inevitably, criticisms of emo culture are laughed off by those who consider themselves to be at the heart of it.
It's just a music thing, they say, and anyone who takes it further has something inherently wrong with them.
"If you listen to the lyrics, you will see there is nothing that promotes suicide; and even if there was, no right-minded person would listen to it and think: 'Now I'm going to kill myself,' ' a self-confessed emo wrote last week on a music website following the inquest into Hannah's death.
"I don't think anyone can say that there is a link between emo and suicide — it's just a myth.
"Emo has become an easy target for ridicule like this; but the bottom line is emotional does not mean suicide."
That is true, of course. But as any parent will tell you, adolescent children can be highly irrational.
They are also easily influenced and may be illequipped to deal with powerful emotions that can be magnified by a sense of "membership" to a sub-group that revels in self-pity.
It is something that Lorraine Harrison is all too aware of. She has three daughters, the youngest of whom is 11-year-old Levi, a girl who classes herself as emo.
Recently, Levi asked her mother: "Just why do people kill themselves?"
"When she asked me that, it made me shudder," says Lorraine, 46, from Alston in Cumbria. "I managed to keep calm and explained to her that people's minds are very disturbed, and often they don't really want to die. But inside I felt sick with worry that Levi is thinking about such things."
From being the sort of girl who dressed in pink and played with Barbie dolls, now Levi will wear only black.
Her favourite T-shirt is patterned with skulls, and she spends hours in her room listening to music by My Chemical Romance.
"Their lyrics seem to be associated with depression and self-harm, and I feel shock when I listen to them," says her mother.
"Levi seems to have gone from being a lively girl who enjoyed having friends around, to someone who has become quite introverted."
When the topic of suicide was raised, Lorraine became so concerned that she telephoned Levi's father, David, from whom she is separated.
"He reminded me that I used to be a rebel, too," she says. "I was a punk rocker for a while, and he reassured me it was probably just a phase that Levi would grow out of.
"But I don't feel it is like the punk rock movement. That was about a zest for living and seeing life from a different angle. We didn't harp on miserably about dying."
Efforts to snap Levi out of her emo torpor have so far met with little success.
Before Christmas, Lorraine bought her daughter a wardrobe of brightly-coloured designer clothes and jeans, but they have barely been worn. She has banned Levi from dying her hair black, but is worried about clamping down further in case it causes further rebellion. Levi insists that her mother is worrying unnecessarily.
"I think many of the concerns around emos aren't true," she says.
"To me, emos skateboard a lot, dress in darker colours and listen to alternative rock music.
"It's also true they probably think about feelings more than other people.
"I do get teased for being an emo because some people at school think it's just about suicide and self-harm.
"But I think you would have to be depressed already to self-harm — and I'm not depressed.
"I like going out dressed in emo clothes because it causes a stir. There aren't many emos where I live, so people look at you.
"It makes you feel individual."
That sense of rebellion and non-conformity is something that 21-year-old Jennina Taylor-Wells can relate to.
Now a student at Oxford Brookes University, she became an emo at 16.
For her, it was also about making a statement.
"I was going through an unhappy period at school," she recalls. "I grew up in the wealthy area of Cheshunt in Hertfordshire, and I was surrounded by spoilt rich kids. I felt that being an emo gave me a defined individuality."
Looking back, she acknowledges that the "cult", as she calls it, was heavily linked to self-harm and depression.
Many of her friends were actually taking prescription antidepressants.
"In hindsight, I can see that being involved with such a cult can be dangerous if you are a vulnerable personality.
"There is a very dark side to being an emo, which is about dressing in black and listening to music with very deep lyrics. That could tip a vulnerable person over the edge."
In recent years, the growing reach of the internet and social networking sites such as MySpace, Facebook and Bebo has meant that the influences to which teenagers are exposed are not controlled by mere geography.
While this can have positive effects, Professor Stephen Briggs, a clinician in the adolescent department of the Tavistock Clinic, says it can also adversely affect the way teenagers develop.
"With mobile phones, the internet and Facebook you can create a virtual world that means you need never be alone," he says. "It means that you don't ever have to be out of sight — and that doesn't allow an adolescent to experience that sense of being a bit separate, of finding one's self.
"It means you don't have a chance to mature on your own; to know who you are."
Just what directed Hannah Bond's behaviour on that tragic September night last year will never be known.
At the inquest in Maidstone, Kent, Vanessa Everett, head teacher of Mascalls Secondary School where Hannah was a pupil, admitted there had been problems with emos harming themselves.
Everett added she thought it "probable" that Hannah might have been influenced by another emo girl at the same school who had attempted suicide a year earlier.
According to a fellow student, she was a close friend of Hannah's and one of a large number of emo pupils.
"The amount of boys and girls who seem to be into it is incredible," the teenager told the Mail. "I reckon there must be 15 to 20 per cent of pupils who are emos. A boy in my class has recently got into it and he's changed completely.
"He used to be normal but now he harms himself, he's dyed his hair black and he wears dark clothes and a really long black coat.
"He's got loads of plasters up his arms and cuts and marks. I tried to ask him about them but he ignored me."
It also emerged that in the months leading up to her death, Hannah had begun to use the internet more, secretively surfing the web on the family's laptop.
Her mother told the inquest: "About a month before [Hannah's death] I noticed that she was addicted to it [the internet].
"There was a definite change in her desire to be online."
On the night of her death, Hannah had spent the evening at a friend's house — also an emo and one who had also cut himself, telling his mother: "We're emos, we all do it."
Hannah had wanted to sleep over and was upset at having to leave.
When they got home, Mrs Bond told Hannah to go to bed, adding that they would discuss the matter in the morning.
The teenager turned to her and said: "I feel like killing myself."
Breaking down in tears, Mrs Bond told the inquest: "I think I said: 'Don't be so silly — we'll talk about it in the morning.'"
An hour later, Mrs Bond went into her daughter's bedroom at the family home in East Peckham, near Maidstone, and found Hannah's lifeless body hanging from the metal railing of the top bunk.
Returning a verdict of suicide, Coroner Roger Sykes said: "She had become an aficionado of the emo fad and she was a user of the internet, which enabled her to contact other emos all over the world, in particular America.
"But she was a very well-liked girl who had many friends and was doing well in school. In her mother's words, she had 'everything to live for'.
"The emo overtones concerning death and associating it with glamour I find very disturbing. It is not glamorous; just simply a tragic loss of such a young life."
The 200 friends and family who attended Hannah's funeral will no doubt echo that.
But not everyone seems to have learned the lesson.
In a tribute book set up at Hannah's school, one pupil left the following message: "I hope you enjoy the black parade."
Naive, misguided or just plain stupid.
But then, that's always been the trouble with some teenagers. And the danger of emo.

It's sickening, brother.
They think when they die they're going to join Satan's army as ghouls in a lame marching band of doom. Nothing but overzealous cheerleaders to a losing army. Pathetic.

Sir, no-one, AND I MEAN NO ONE in the My Chemical Romance fandom, or of any "emo" fandom belives that they are going to the "black parade". Gerard Way, frontman and lead vocalist for this band thought up this story, following a man as he dies of cancer. Personally, as a member of this fandom, I can repeat what I said before: NO ONE BELIVES WE ARE IN THE BLACK PARADE. You guys should SERIOUSLY do 2 things!
1. research research reseach, BOTH SIDES OF THE STORY.
and 2. If you dont like it, ignore it and go back to reading your bible or going to church. not everyone wants to be saved

May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

I was originally coming here to try and rationally explain a couple of things on the side of Frank Iero & My Chemical Romance, however, I'd like to take a moment to point out how offence the 'emotes' on your page are.
For example:
Bit harsh, considering you're supposed to be omnibenevolent. Believe it or not, when they said love your neighbour, they meant everyone. Not just the people you live next to.
Anyway, on with the show.
Whilst I agree that these lyrics are hardly appropriate for a younger age group, I believe the album is not sold legally to anyone under the government approved 'appropriate' age. Just going to throw that out there. So if anything, you should complain about the government condoning the album. If the album was so 'unholy' then it would have been banned. Am I correct?
As for the whole emo cult thing you're going on about, I'd like you to take a moment to think before you speak. I am a huge fan of My Chemical Romance, and other bands, which would be considered 'in the same category, such as Family Force Five [[ A christian band. ]] You should also know I am not an Emo, and that I am a Baptist Christian. [[ BritishBaptist, you get it? ]] Not all fans of the band are 'emo'. Emo, is more of a category that some teenagers fall into, because people oppress their creativity, or bully them, etc. So I don't feel that your hostility towards anyone who has a different opinion, is helping the situation. If anything, it's going to make matters far worse.
Regardless, I would like to point out that you don't have much faith in the people around you, if you believe that they would take something so literally. If you took the time to research the meaning behind the song, then maybe you would have a different opinion. Unfortunately, you interpretation of the music, has lead you down the wrong path.
If anything, you should start worrying about bands like 'Gorgoroth'. If you need something to complain about, that at least I'd probably agree with you if it were about them.
P.S. Enjoy this quote from John 2:9,10 about hate. You all seem to be doing a lot of that recently.
He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.
John 2:9,10
John also said...
If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
John 4:20
[[ These quotes were taken from my bible, as with the way things are shuffled around these days, I have no idea where exactly they'd be for you. Apologies. ]]

If you are who you say you are, you have a lot of explaining to do.
Why do you lead children astray?
Why do you promote suicide?
Why do you promote drug use?
Do you lie?
Ever been to Birdsboro, PA?
Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

So, God got it wrong did He?
John:7:24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
1st Corinthians 6:2 Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
1st Corinthians 6:3 Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?.
Mal:3:18: Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.

I know this might sound like a hostile question, but it's meant with the best intentions! I'm purely curious, as I know there are many different versions of the bible. Which bible are you reading? I was always taught that you shouldn't judge others.

God is not omnibenevolent and neither are we. I think you confuse benevolence with love. We love our neighbors so much that we want to give them a fighting chance to avoid Hell! It is out of this love that we do not coddle anyone or condone their sinful lifestyles. How could any True Christian™ not share His Word with vile sinners, such as the Unsaved Trash in this very thread? The fact that so many of them react poorly is just a sign of the demonic forces acting in their horrible lives. Satan doesn't let go easily!
Revelations 6:16
"And said to the mountains and rocks,
Fall on us, and hide us from the face
of him that sitteth on the throne,
and from the wrath of the Lamb"
