I'm not the most religious person in the world. I'll be the first to admit I'm not even totally sure if I believe in the whole "God vs. Satan" thing either. Not wanting to turn this into a religious debate or "if you dont believe in God you go to hell" type of thread either. But, lets just say you are just a 'spiritual' person...that is, you believe people have 'souls' and there is some sort of an afterlife where these souls go to.
So the story goes.....
The first vampire was actually an evil soul that was so jealous of humans that this evil soul or demon overtook a human body and "posessed" it. This demon was a "blood demon" ...it craved human blood and supposedly gained 'powers' from consuming it. Not totally unplausible. That is if you believe in Angels, Demons, "Demon-posession", ...and take what the Bible says for its word. More than one passage in the Bible mentions "fallen angels" and them taking human form, posesssing human bodies, "laying with the daughters of man" and even bearing human children who became "giants".
So, if you believe in those things....why couldnt there be the possibility for Vampires as well? All we're really talking about is humans posessed by evil spirits with a lust for blood, and with the ability to spread their demon posession through a bite and create more vampires. "Oh but "God" wouldnt let that happen"...right. Why not? "He" has let many other unspeakable things happen all throughout history.
I'd like to see how constructed of a debate we can have here. I want to hear your views. Do you think it's possible for there to be vampires? Can you back up your side with logic? If youre a Christian and you take the Bible for its word....do you select what you do and dont believe in the Bible?
