I didn't consider Goth a religion, although it can be classified as being such.
Subcultures take on the aspect of religion, and therefore you can say that a subculture has its own music, language, attire, and behavior. You said yourself that a "Mall Goth" is not an actual Goth. Therefore you just showed us that within your Goth experience that you have separated yourself from those Goths who fit not the pattern that you and your group prescribe.
You called the "Mall Goths" posers, therefore if they are posers then they are hypocrites, a.k.a "poser."
I asked "Since you recognize that all life and things die, and realize death is apart of life, what is your view of an after life?"
Do you believe in speaking in tonngues and the Spirit gives the utterance?
Do you believe in the water baptism in Jesus name?
Do you paint your fingernails black?
