The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

A thread was posted recently asking for the origins of Vampyres, and a reply to this thread tried to explain that Vampyres came from a planet thousands of years ago. This planet was where the asteroid belt is now. According to this reply two planets collided and formed the belt.



I would like to discuss the questions surrounding this idea.



The asteroid belt lies between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter and contains thousands of small rocky bodies called asteroids. For the most pasrt these asteroids are no more than small bits of rocks.The largest is Ceres with a diameter of over 400km.



There are two theories surrounding the origins of the AB. The first is that thses asteroids were left over from the formation of the planets and due to the constant collisions with each other they were not able to form into a planet. This theory is supported by the vast majority of scientists as well as myself.



The second theory is that a planet existed long ago and was destroyed thus forming the AB.

The second theory while not supported by main stream scientists can not be ruled out, however what can be ruled out it the notion that the planet could have maintained life and the idea that there were two of these life sustaining planets is nothing other than science fiction as I shall prove.



If the entire AB was pulled together its mass would be less than 1/2 that of the moon. Which means that if there were two planets they would both be no more than 400-500km in diameter, to small to hold an atmosphere. Secondly the distance at which the AB lies the conditions for life greater than microbial life dose not exist. It would be far to cold for anything to evolve.



Let us say that these planets did exist we must also look at this, should it hold an ocean the tides would be so extreame due to Jupiters gravity that they would overcome much of the dry land each time the planet rotated.



I do not rule out the slight possibility of a planet existing millions of years ago, but the notion of two planets, sustaining life and allowing it to evolve to such a point as to survive the stresses of the area, are completly absured.

There is a saying that goes, Show me how you respect the dead and I'll show you the quality of the people.



Our society shows a great deal of respect for the dead, we spend thousands of dollars to simply place them in the groud we hold masses and wakes. All to honour the ones that have gone before, lived thier lives and passed on.



But there is another saying of which I think we should pay more attention to and that is, Show me how you respect the living and I'll show you your true worth and wisdom.



The idea of humanity and dignity is that we all have equal value and we all should treat eachother with respect. Yet day after day we murder for no reason, we let drugs or conflicing ideas get in the way of the fact that as people we are the most valuable thing in this entire universe.

How is it that we are so quick to kill? Why do we let such simple things cause such great damage?



I am so sick of the waste of human life whether its a government causeing it or some drug lord on the street. We pride ourselves on being the greatest civilisation in history yet we take no thought to ending life.

Life, that most precious of gifts we destroy. We terrorize families and cause pain and suffering, why?

It is not up to you to bring death and all who revel in it are nothing more than weakness in its truest form.



If we are to ever grow as a society we must take into fact that death does nothing but hold us back.

In a world where so many people live day to day wondering where their next meal is going to come from. In a society where our combined histories speak of war and famine, in what place do we now find ourselves?



Throughout history the story of man has been told by the sword and the hand of God. We have come so far and yet our combined power lies with in our ability to destroy. We, the ultimate in creation, the most complex of beings, exceding the universe in our many colours; the image of our Creator.



In our genes we hold the secrets to the cosmos, we have unlimited ability to learn, but sadly we have not the wisdom of our Father.





Today, we are faced with the most serious of questions. What do we leave our progeny? We have created art, sciences but the single thing that we are most learned in is that of the art of war.



People have an innate ability to find faults with in one another and then justify their destruction by our perverted quotations of our peacemakers. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, yet we listen not to the rewards of those who practice peace; Blessed are the peace makers for they are the children of God.





This is the year 2005, we have over 5,000 years of written history, the sum of which can be counted in the lost. For all that we have and created as a civilisation we still insist that the earth is our play thing and that each other are no more valuable than the chemicals of which we are made.





One would think that after 2 world wars, the Holocaust, Rwanda, ad nauseam we would learn that the simple differences between us are nothing, and that we are, individually the most precious thing in all of creation.





As I write this our planet is losing thousand of acres of forests, millions of barrels of oil, thousands of tons of pollution float with unsettled ease into our atmosphere. Control is left to those with money, power yields corruption, money drives greed, greed demands power and the sum of it all promotes our own demise.





How can we, with the wisdom of an infant think for one moment that we can control the out comes of our blinded actions? In our infinite arrogance we move, not knowing where we are going. I can hear our world crying out, echoing the words of Christ, "Forgive them for they know not what they do".





So again we are faced with the same question, What do we leave our children? Do we learn form the past and practice the art of war and destruction no more or do we in our total blindness, in our belligerence continue the path we are on?





Our sciences, even our Holy Books talk of the end of our civilisation, should we not change our practices. In this time, at this moment we must now choose the world in which our children shall live in. In all the governments in all the world there are advisors on war, economics ect. but there is not an advisor on the future. We live day to day careing only about what we can make and do for this day, giving little thought to the repercussions which will come in the morning.



I write this not to instill fear, not to dishearten you, but to allow you to think. Is what you are doing going to hurt humanity, or is it going to help everyone. Open your eyes beyond yourself, beyond that of your family and see that all people are affected by what you do this day and the next.



In closing I would simply like to reinterate the words of Christ, Buddha, Moses and Gandhi; think not selfishly but humanely.
