I have been amazed at the attraction to the Twilight Series among professed believers. it strikes me as odd that Christians would be drawn to such occult icons as vampires and werewolves, even if they are not your typical vampires and werewolves. It also strikes me as odd that Christians would embrace this series of books and movies without ever questioning the motive behind the series. Obviously, the author, and lots of others, have made piles of money off the series. It may surprise you to learn that there may be a more sinister motive behind these popular books and movies. Did you know that the author of the Twilight Series is a Mormon, and that she uses the books and the symbols and metaphors they contain to spread her faith? There is an article at Touchstone by John Granger that is well worth a serious read. At least take the time to check it out before you drink the KoolAid!

Hey, here’s an idea for the Christian community, what if we returned to reading the Word of God instead of drivel like this that weakens the soul and has the potential to lead us into error? Just a thought!
