why do you think that "god " or whatever you beleve in put us here i really do not get it if god is so good why did he make us with so many improfections...... i do not get how all of the vampires came to be here it is like it is what he wanted us to look like but we were to evil and he like started over or did he just put us here wile he was in a bad mood ... i do not know these are my thoughts on this how do you feel we came to be here?
as to that last post...NEVER EVER stop thinking...but reading more is a good thing...and as to why god made us the way we are.....simple diversity works as a good explanation to me
Nah...if God wanted to really screw with us he would've created something to make us hate each other so much over such a pointless matter, that we would lill ourselves for a foolish notion.......
Ooops!
Forget I said that.
Simple answer. God loves variety. If he didn't there would only be one type of tree, one type of bird, etc.
all that only works if you belive in GOD, that said, we could simple be the top of the food chain the next top preditar
I don't believe in god but i do think that you should read more and think less.
what if the problim is she reads to much an dosnt think for herself enough an form her on opinions? no offense to the creater of this thread
Ummm... The reason why I stated God was because she spefically mentioned God at the beginning [okay exactlly stated: "god " or whatever you beleve in put us here]. So I guess to cover the "whatever you beleve in put us here" people, think how boring it would be if everyone were exactly the same.
ok so you all know i do not beleve in "god" i think he is a loser wit h a bible of bed time stories .......
i believe in evolution....i don't think "god" created us.
-ecstasy
you might as well believe in a god or satan or heaven or hell.... what does it matter.... it just makes you think... if people wouuld just read they would find that many people have done all the thinking for them and they dont need to waste their time.... BloodThirst is right .... less thinking and more reading and you will be fine
Sh!@ happens. Somtimes there's no reason. Try not to think too much about it. It'll give you a headache.
why do you all say that i should not think you make me feel like a dits....*tear*
It is perfectly alright to think. But once you do begin to read more. You will see that others have too thought of the same questions you wonder.
why not?
He is bloody God people come on now. He needs not a reason for what He does. I am sure you guys have just bloody done something for no reason. i KnOw that i have.
my suggestion if you wish to get God at all, is to talk with Him. the Bible so not such a good idea for this endeavor though, it only tells of what He was like 2000 years ago.
*scratchs head*
i don't see why he/she/they shouldn't have made us
Well because of the whole freedom of choice we can do what we want. If I remember correctly vampires originated in a legend linking Adam and Lilith (Lilith I believe was a babylonian goddess of some sort, and supposedly Adams first wife). Anyways their offspring where some sort of vampires I believe. Then God banished her from Eden and made Eve
hon you are not a ditz! don't ever think that. it's just that this is a really touchy subject for some people. I think what you need to do is stop, take a deep breath, and enjoy life. Who cares about what or who made us? we are born, we live a life that is filled with good and bad and ugly, then we die. Simple as that. So don't go sweating the little things and enjoy yourself! *BIG HUGS FROM YOUR DEAR FRIEND NADJA*
Dont think and just believe what your told/read??? What the hell kind of advice is that?
Why Vampires?
Why Not?
~dont think so hard you might hurt yourself~
god, whatever that means, created a place for us to be with resources and stuff. it is on us what we make of it and apparently that is what we made of it
It just happened.
There more unanswerable queations like,why the world is full of injustice why war,why pain etc....
First off I just wanted to state that the bible isnt just telling what God was like 2,000 years ago. It tells of God AND Jesus among other things and is also filled with prophecies of the future to come. But I am a Christian and dont want to fight about this touchy subject so thats all I am going to say...
I agree with Daermon, never stop thinking.
It is so hard to believe that some omnipitant being could really have made evey tree and animal for a unique purpose... thats why I dont really believe it. I dont honestly know how to contemplate the prpose of vampires, as not everything is always purposeful... however mystery is vital, to maintain the mystery in these elements ;-)
It isn't good to stop thinking. But it also isn't good to strain your brain over something that just isn't worth it. Questions are good but my view on these sorts of subjects is it's just another worthless thing to worry about. To me no matter what being you are it's important to live. Higher powers and why we're here seem irrelevant when compared to surviving in this world.
Good point. but theres nothing wrong in a bit of healthy mind expansion to take us down a peg or two... so often we get obsessed with surviving, that we froget to think outside the box.
yay we agree. questioning things are always good always a point in survival. never accept things and fall into a zombie like pattern. but it will drive yourself and others around you crazy if you keep asking "WHY WHY WHY"
Of course it would, but when I have spent the past year studying philosophy, and someone asks for my opinion, then it can't be helped :-)
its funny how when we question another species existance we automatically question our own exsistance... How vampires got here and how we got here are two unsolved mysteries... along with how did the earth get here and how life came about being... According to the bible God created these creature very much like us except they lacked a soul. He was dissatified with them and created Adam. Lillith became Adam's first wife but then God created Eve and shunned his first creation. After Cain killed Abel and God banned Cain from his family, Cain went off to the city that contained the original creation and Cain married Lillith and their children started our vampyric species... now this may or may not be true but its what I have heard from many kin... feel free to correct me or add to it...
I've basically heard the same adpatation, LadyAshlee. However, thats also making an assumption. Like questioning existence is brought onto ourselves, religion is always brought onto one religion in particular, instead of something that may contradict our theories.
Well, for me I belive that there has to be something out there bigger than us or whatever, but I dont believe in the little jagged pill called Christainty persay, but we might have been put here to be his "play things", for me there are many different ways of looking at this topic, but don't think I'm closed minded for not beliving in the exact deffinintion "god" or whatever. Umm sorry if this didn't help at all I go into rants sometimes lol.
God put us all here for a reason... Though this reason is not bluntly in our faces, it is there... We just need to look for it...
I have just become the Reverend Lycian, and have, after all this, does god still hate me?I am
only lowly vampire. Has he left things to feed on?
I must say that i have to agree with Gylanah on this one
To each his/her own...If there were no "evil", we wouldn't know what "good" was, and the world would be a pretty oring place and we'd all be drones. But, yes, it does seem like a lot of us get shit on way m ore than "normal" ppl!
God said, "Think for yourself. Question authority."
*smiles and winks*
There are many "gods" but the one you speak of is more known to the American and to "trust" him is written on the "root of all evil". Isn't that an oxymoron? The bible contradicts itself as well.
That is why I am a religious Satanist.
StarryEyesSix, i like your point, but isn't it more defining one thing with its oppositre in our own society than actually admitting that the two exist in some form?
stormie- Lovely quote, and considering I went to a christian high school, I love admiring the power that is held by a book of age old editing and conradictions *waves a falg of atheism, mixed with a cynical agnosticism*
As I do not believe in God, I cannot honestly refer to anything of knowledge specifically wen referring to selection byan omnipitant, but as StarryEyesSix mentioned, if good and evil are indeed existant, then maybe that answers the question in terms of the existance of vampires.
I was having a simular conversation such as this one with my loved one the other day. Perhaps, what ever reason we are here is for all of us to meet. Though many believe in living and seeknig alone, the rest of us would like to see others views on what they think they might be. It's simply because everyone wants to know more. It's human nature to want, and we must admit, though the most of us are born into 'darkness,' we all start off believing we're humans.
i was just wondering how many other christians there are on this site....
we are not the evolution of people we are the beginning of a predator put here to entertain a blood thirsty god
god put us here? I`d never heard this. Do you think he has anything to do with our
unweldy immortaly and our constant thirst for human blood?
i dont think any one will ever no the answer but you need to read more and think less
I don´t belive in Gods. We al caned here for an reason it is just up to you to understand wath yours is....
There is a god, whether it be a single, or multiple, someone/thing had to have put us here, and we are vampires because variety is needed, and wasn't intended to be such an outcastal idea...
Evolution baby..,...humans have to evolve somehow,but here's the catch the kindred get to choose the one who seem fit to survive the transformation.
well if god exsisted than he is just a little boy with an ant farm , that created teh ants fo rhis own ammusement and without variety he would bore easily, hence vampires and differnet races and what have you.
I think we are all here for many reasons beyond our knowing why.
heres one for ya god did exisit we evolved and vamps made up to scare ppl or jus twisted minds
I think everybody here made valid points-and we're not telling you to read more because we think you're stupid honey-but some things can only be answered by more learning- that is what makes u unique-a true and questing brain-undead not withstanding, I think that God as was said above loves variety-after all, like Robin Williams once said "you think God doesn't get stoned? Look at a duck billed platypus"
i personaly dont believe in God so if vampires are here then its not his doing. however if there is a God then there must be an opposite i.e the Devil so it could b his bright idea to creat vampires. not to say that all vampires are evil coz there not lol
I think God was just wanting to have fun and made many types of humans... God has a sense of humor too.
although i agree with lilithskye i also have to say that Vampyres started as an imperfection in it self i was once a virus to humans in which they adapted and became the perfact form of the human. although they have many true weaks points they make up for it with there massive stronge points
i agree. read more n think less... the answer will come to you...young one.
Bad or evil it dose´t matter becouse everyone has ther own place in this freaky world...
...And why NOT vampires? I don't think your a dits. I think your question is very pertinent. Many things were taken from the bible in the Laodecia concil, when emperor Arian decided what should or should not be known to chritianity. Including the Book of Enoch, where he speaks of Nephilims, and, in my interpretation, The Fallen became in fact vampires. They were giants, and there was no food left for them, so they started to feed on humans. Don't you see a resemblence? This, of course, following the line of the bible. On the other hand, Man stoped having real mass predators a long time ago, so vampires can be just a question of evolution. An old breed of many strings ready to take control over the over growing populated Earth. Read, yes, but NEVER stop thinking. That is what will make you numb and dumb.
