My thoughts exactly… he “finds his faith” at the end, like that’s the perfect, desireable, happy ending. Definitely seems like “Oh, it has religious values, it’s good for kids even if it’s violent but being religious means you’re a good person” etc type propaganda bullshit.

@mblood93 I agree completely with you, having Paul start out as an Atheist and then become a Christian was pretty offensive and the thrown in “you must pray” element with the Atheist character was almost certainly just meant to slap non-Christians in the face. Your point about having the character be someone with a shaken but pre-existing faith would have been far more effective and far less offensive is spot on.

Wait, the priest is pissed that the guy’s an atheist, but what is a Catholic priest doing having a daughter anyway?

I just personally think that if Paul initially believed in God, then had some sort of event happen where he began to questioni God’s existence, and through killing Dracula, it restores his faith in God, that would’ve been a much stronger story. I presonally think the story is much weaker establishing that he’s an athiest and making him instantly convert to Christianity. It’s possible that that happens in some cases, but I can assume that that’s very rare.and btw, I’m not trying to get a fight with you if that’s what you’re assuming.

@mblood93 Actually some believers in faith do loose their faith overnight. mostly caused by some stressful event in their lives, like a freaking vampire attack.

@Yushatak I think vampire jabbing at you is proof enough for this guy.
