TV • TV Coverage Dozens of Bible-wielding Mexican evangelical Christians prayed for the soul of Marilyn Manson on Thursday in a protest against a planned concert by the shock rocker. About 100 people sang hymns and prayed outside local government buildings in the center of the northern city of Monterrey, where Manson, infamous for ripping up Bibles and invoking Satan on stage, is to play on Nov. 5. "We are praying for him so that he can know God and become transformed," said demonstration organizer Arsenia Campos, whose daughter was killed last year by a young man who later said he was involved in a Satanic cult.

"We ask you Lord to enlighten the authorities and bless the community to avoid all evil," said Sonia Ruiz, a housewife. Monterrey is one of Mexico's most conservative cities. Manson's album "The Golden Age of Grotesque" topped the U.S. sales charts in May. The rocker won a civil suit in Minnesota in September brought by a security guard upset at Manson rubbing his crotch against the guard's head during a concert. Variety
