For those of you wondering about furry comics and what they are, below is the title page of an online furry comic which attempts to present the Bram Stoker Dracula tale as a furry comic. You might find this to be quite interesting. No, this is not a “Christian” effort. It is simply an online […]

G.K. Chesterton on fairy tales
The unexpected discussion on vampire tales has now morphed into a discussion on publishing issues in the Christian world, as you can see from some of the comments on my previous posts. This brings up the question of what is the purpose of a Christian writing in the area of fantasy? Why bother with fantasy […]
Christian vampire stories
Every time Father Orthoduck thinks that the subject of vampires has gone the route, something else will come up that he thinks is worth mentioning. In this case, author Sue Dent has written in and verified that her tales not only truly reflect a Christian mindset, but even have been good enough to become finalists […]
Palliative sedation of terminal patients
There is a tough subject that has been being debated in American medical circles for well over a decade. That subject is palliative sedation for, “a patient who is suffering from a terminal illness and who is experiencing great pain. . . .” The wording is from a 1997 Supreme Court decision.

Vampires and Protestant theology
Father Orthoduck is as surprised as Father Ernesto, but following is a continuation on previous vampire posts. The original Bram Stoker tale on Dracula was widely based on Roman Catholic theology.

Christ’s coming to Earth began the victory march that eventually overthrew the gates of hell and won the victory over Satan.

Christmas Eve 2009
St. John Chrysostom’s Christmas Homily: BEHOLD a new and wondrous mystery. My ears resound to the Shepherd’s song, piping no soft melody, but chanting full forth a heavenly hymn. The Angels sing. The Archangels blend their voice in harmony. The Cherubim hymn their joyful praise. The Seraphim exalt His glory. All join to praise this […]
The furry universe and vampire chick-lit
Well, I did not think yesterday that my vampire chick-lit post would lead to another one, but it does give me the opportunity to promote a Christian writer who is working in the area of Furry Science Fiction or the Furry Universe. His name is Ken Pick and he has been published in a Christian […]
Vampire teen chick-lit
Do you know what chick-lit is? Chick lit is genre fiction within women’s fiction which addresses issues of modern women often humorously and lightheartedly.

Although sometimes it includes romantic elements, women’s fiction (including chick […]
