Re: Christian Vampire Novels
In any fiction the idea is to remember it is FICTION!!!! There will always be a few screwballs who take someting too far but for the most part 99.9% of people both Christian and non christian are able to seperate reality from fantasy.
I do have a harder time with the idea of trying to merge Christianity with vampires, etc than just straight out vampire fantasy stories. My complaint being that when you mix truth with fables you pollute the truth part. That is my objection to the DaVinci code. I love some fantasy stories and a lot of science fiction ones but don't like my Christian faith being polluted with fantasy, especially fantasy that is heresay as was the case with DaVinci Code.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
