I believe that they can, some say if your bitten as a Christian, your a Christian vampire. but if you don't want to harm anyone, and you believe in God, than anything is possible. It is also a myth that vampires fear the holy cross, it is not true. I am a Christian Vampire, and I don't drink peoples blood. If I get a cut, I always suck on it, But I don't do that to anyone else. I am what you call a Lifestyle Vampire, The kind of Vampire that does not suck peoples blood, they don't suck the energy out of them, they just dress like them, and wear cool Vampire contacts, and sometimes get some plastic fangs to look like the real deal. and yes, Lifestyle vampires are REAL vampires... and they are the best vampires to be if you a Christian one.
Vampires are dead people and once you're dead you 'have a very hard time' changing your mind about anything. A vampire can change his opinions at the intellectual level but all emotions, character traits, etc are pretty well set for eternity. What ever person you were when you 'died' will be the sort of person you are as a vampire. Now if you were deeply religious before you died then you will be deeply religious as a vampire. Count Dracula had deep religious convictions which made being a vampire difficult for him.
Vampires are not satanist. That is like asking if a vegetarian is an animal lover. People assume this based on movies and the media but vampires can be christian, buddhist or etc. Vampirism is just the need for the blood or external energies of others to remain healthy.
Vampires are commonly thought to be repelled by Christian crosses, and by garlic. You can wear a cross necklace, and possibly hang strings of garlic in your kitchen - it's good both for repelling vampires and for seasoning your food.Of course, in the real world, people do not need to protect themselves from vampires, since vampires are mythical creatures (although there are sometimes people who think that they are vampires, and there are lots of people who like to pretend to be vampires or at least want to look like vampires).
The thing about vampires and crucifixes is a trait unique to Count Dracula. In his life-time the count was a great defender of Christianity against the invading Ottoman Turks who were Muslim. His great christian bias followed him into him undead existence and caused him considerable conflict and angst. Most vampires do not have a thing about crucifixes.
are vampires true are vampires true
Is it likely that the church would designate a saint to protect and care for evil beings that can't face crosses and holy water? ____ A saint is recognised by the Christian Church and beloved. Vampires..... not so much. Any saint for vampires would need to fit those criteria. Interestingly, the Catholic Church (who come up with the Saints) list proof/evidence of saintliness as being preserved once dead, preserved perfectly, as if still alive. They say vampires are preserved but smell terrible, which leads me to believe they were just talking about badly decomposing corpses. Not real vampires. ('Cos crosses do nothing, garlic is nice). Still, a saint for vampires would need to be one themselves, but the Church isn't going to like that idea, are they?
yes vampires are real, bats are vampires. but human vampires are not real
Some collective nouns for vampires are a vein of vampires or a clot of vampires.
There is no such a thing as vampires... but there is such a thing as vampire bats. And no, vampires do not have the same powers as Twilight vampires do.
