He is an ordained Minister of the Church of Satan. Which (assuming you can really call Satanism a "religion" ) suggests he is technically a Satanist. Although he has publicly said that "Satanism is only part of what I believe, along with The Bible and Dr Seuuss."

He's an Antichristian. “AntiChrist Superstar”

Holey Drawers?

Whatever sells the most cd's

Any thing that makes him money. The boy's a walking marketing scheme. I know a lot of people who either went to school with him (my ex-sister-in-law graduated with him) or his family (cousin's best friend was a co-woker) and they all say the boy's an act and nothing more.

1) "Myth 3: Marilyn Manson is Anti-Christian While it is true that the second Marilyn Manson album was entitled Antichrist Superstar, the concept of the album delved deeply into aspects of apocalypse, revelation, and observance of society in general. In numerous biographic materials, it has been revealed numerous times that he attended a Christian school during his youth. As he grew, he was eventually turned off from the fundamentalist teaching of the religion, so much so that he perceived it as more focused on teaching fear rather than teaching values. Having said that, there is very little indication that Marilyn Manson is against faith or belief - but more so against the corrupt establishment controlling religion. "I refuse to be forced to believe in other people's interpretations of God," Manson once said. "I don't think anybody should be. No one person can own the copyright to what God means."" This quote and much more interesting information here: http://www.thetrukstop.com/articles/2007/myths_of_manson.html 2) "No one can accuse Marilyn Manson of being biased against any one religion. As the name of his fall tour indicates, he's opposed to them all."

What he reproaches most to religions and to Catholicism in particular is that the adepts are to a certain point "slaves" of this Church which dictates everything they must do, just as their television… " Source and more interesting information here: http://www.manson-world.net/us/philosophie.php 4) "Challenging the Myths of "family values," liberal civilzation and endless technological progress, Manson's misanthropic music reminds listeners that the extermination of the entire human species still looms. He offers not just an epistemology of liberation but a call to social action that has always been at the heart of American revolutionary politics, whatever its outward form resembled."
