Get the gothic puppets mug.post-gothic christianity is a multicultural, all inclusive, especially considering black christian traditions in north america, philosophical construction of christianity that is especially uniquely artistic and individual in scope. Occasionally artists who are post-gothic as christians will include christianity as part of their artistic ouevre, and within this ouevre they have developed the history and culture of post-gothic christianity.
Post-Gothic Christianity is not necessarily theological, it is oftentimes ironic in scope, political in purpose, and it is completed by it’s flaws, including the flawed contributor to the post-gothic christian purpose. Post-Gothic Christianity is prominent especially for questioning the white supremacy of all historical christian traditions, and the “Arian” beginnings of the Christian Church, in Rome, namely Gothic.
Contemporary Romans by and large are more accepting of Post-Gothic Christianity, on the whole, than they are of Gothic Christianity.
One Post-Gothic Christian alive and producing theology today is Kanye West, a black billionaire who is both a musician and an entrepreneur.
