I can sympathize with the shoulder injury, not fun to deal with - best of everything with recovery. Speaking of personal experience...how would Alucard be around a romantic interest when he finds out they had renounced their Catholic faith some years prior? This may be triggering for those that experienced this as I had. A number of factors played into the decision such as growing up in a oppressive/abusive household, living with constant anxiety and fear of persecution and manipulation from family members and congregation. But they had broke free and severed all ties to that life and now live as they please. They have become more jaded towards the denomination...and of course I'm sure they would have a field day with Father Anderson. I enjoy your writing and dedication, please take care. PS - I've gotten into reading Vampire Hunter D due to reading many of your older asks involving him <3
As You Believe
šThank you for your concern on my shoulder š I have gone to using the tablet. I can use my left hand for typing and let the right side rest.
This is in my opinion and an easy one for me. There will not be any religious bashing. I for a period of time was a strong opinionated and (renounced Christianity) agnostic.I start this ask with a quote from Dusk till Dawn. Jacob is the father and a disillusioned pastor. I believe this movie quote explains this the best..
āÆļøā¢Jacob Fuller: (Dusk till Dawn) Every person who... chooses the service of God as his life's work has something in common. I don't care if you're a preacher, a priest, a nun, a rabbi or a Buddhist monk.
Many, many times during your life you will look at your reflection in a mirror and ask yourself: am I a fool? I'm not going through a lapse; what I've experienced is closer to awakening.
ā®ļøā¢One final thing, it is not good enough to tolerate others but one should feel compassion for themā¦
š·Now to Alucard's response..
ā¢So there is some historical debate if Vlad III Dracula was forced to convert to Catholicism from Greek Orthodox in order to marry his second wife who was from Hungary. I think a cousin to the king Matthias Corvinus. Also the Sultan Mehmed's Father tried to force Vlad to convert to Islam.
Note; By the way, Christianity only dates back to one century ec. Islam is a 7th century starting spot. Technically 'baby' religions. Hindu is the oldest recorded.
ā¢With this bit of history, Alucard wouldn't care. He completely lost faith and cursed God by denouncing his religious faith then becoming the first Nosferatu.
The Vampire King would be pleased that you found a more peaceful change considering what happened to Him. And what was going on in your mortal life.
Your heart isn't filled with blind rageā¦
ā¢Remember that Vlad would have severed ties to the last of his family of cousins (in Moldavia for example) Besides the church.
ā¢The Unholy King fully knows what fear and persecution is. How a family manipulation and a congregation can befull of judgment which leads to tearing down a person versus lifting one up.
ā¢Alucard would discuss what are the beliefs besides Christianity. Though You would need to educate the Impaler King that killing Muslims is wrong. Persecution of the Jews even today and not adding to it. There isn't (shouldn't have) a sanctioned crusade to wipe these people and religions.
They have a right to exist.Though the sigils offer more control on his violent purging except for Naziā¦
But of course.. darling.
