Re: Vampires are a threat

It takes a special kind of idiot to believe that monsters like vampires exist, much less that they are a threat. I suppose you believe in Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, too. The sad thing is, there are rarely seen beasts that we should worry about, and you are wasting everyone's time discussing an obviously mythical creature.

Dragons are a threat:

Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps. Deuteronomy 32:33

Behemoth is a threat:

Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox. Job 40:15

Leviathan is a threat:

In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea. Isaiah 27:1

Fiery flying serpents are a threat:

The burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of trouble and anguish, from whence come the young and old lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they will carry their riches upon the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures upon the bunches of camels, to a people that shall not profit them. Isaiah 30:6

Cockatrices are a threat:

For, behold, I will send serpents, cockatrices, among you, which will not be charmed, and they shall bite you, saith the LORD. Jeremaiah 8:17

Giant fish are a threat:

Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights. Jonah 1:17

Winged lions and leopards, bears with ribs in the mouth, and ten-horned beasts with iron teeth are all threats:

And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another. The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it. And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh. After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it. After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns. Daniel 7:3-7

The seven headed beast with ten horns is a big, big threat:

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. Revelation 13:1

So please, everyone, let's try to keep things real.
