Amarantha I totally agree, and i liked the links to non-christian christmas stories. I come from a family of total atheists but christmas is the mos important time of year for us because of the "magick" as my dad calls it. yes gifts are a large part of christmas but...

fiction

underworld

Amarantha I'd probably choose vampire simply because i wouldn't want to lose control of myself every month, and i also reckon being a werewolf would be harder to hide from people. of course it also depends on which vampire myth/legend/story we are working from and the...

Amarantha I think every myth has its roots in truth, despite how absurd they may become. There are of course the real vampires such as vampire bats, bloodsucking insects, and peculiar human diseases which can induce vampire like symptoms such as an aversion to...

As i understand it, when Lucifer was cast out of heaven a group of other angels fell with him. Does anyone know if this group of angels has a specific name. I don't mean Satanists, or any religious group comprising of humans...

Amarantha Oh, wow. I have exactly the same problem. My friend insists that Stefan is better 'cause he's more loving and blah blah blah, and tat damon is just psycho crazy! i will never understand her. Our arguements can actually get quite bitter :P But yeah, Damon wins...

Amarantha As was previously mentioned people fear what they don't understand. People also like to try to sound educated by discussing matters they really don't know anything about. there are actually some positive aspects to satanism, but people always overlook those...

6 responses

Amarantha Tagging helps people to find your discussion which in turn increases the odds of people commenting or contributing which results in more opportunities for you to respond and earn money for those resonses. I always tag discussion that i start, though i rarely...

Amarantha Wouldn't that depend on how you view oppresion? The full body covering is not a part of islam (islam, i believe, only requires the covering of hair) but rather an enforced custom of muslim countries such as iran, iraq etc. I personally would feel oppressed if...
