†Beware†
Far too often in the "Vamp Scene" we hear Elders, Orders, Houses, Covens, and other groups or individuals say:
"We are an ancient organization from the mists of time and our origins lie before the beginning of humanity. Our god/tradition/philosophy is the oldest in existence."
As a fledgling I fell for this as well. With hindsight I can now view it for what it is: a foolish attempt to achieve ego-gratification by trying to create an aura of illusionary superiority. The true Strigoi Vii I have encountered really don't care to engage in this sort of vampire one-upmanship. We know Our lineage and spiritual species has been with humanity for millenia in one form or another through many incarnations. Ours is one agreement and perspective on this. However, We have the collective strength to say, "We still don't know all the details." Many of Us have found little bits and pieces of the answer, and putting this together is like assembling a jigsaw puzzle with thousands of pieces. We have better things to do than engage in pointless debate about Our tradition like members of mundane fundamentalist religions. We would rather live Our lives to the fullest, look to the future, achieve personal mastery of the mortal coil, and seek results from the Mysteries.
Whenever an organization or group demands absolute and unquestioning faith from it's members, they are exhibiting the first sign of being a cult.
