No, Sophia, I'm not trying to pick on people of faith.
There is a reason that I explicitly said in the following post when someone else mentioned an actual religious comment that I wasn't wanting to go down that road.No, what I was getting at was the typical protection myths for vampires. I thought it was a fairly logical progression from my comparison in her paranoia and the "terrorists" being our version of the boogeyman (CHECK UNDER YOUR BED).
So in other words, yeah, my problem is that I think the woman is (like most of the other people in this thread) just looking for another thing to check the closets for every night before tucking her kids in, turning on their nightlights, and covering all the mirrors lest Bloody Mary come through.
