Update on NaNoWriMo and some ponderings of mine on Twilight

Hello all,

I am ahead in my word count! *does happy dance* And, believe it or not, I am actually looking forward to getting up at 5:30 AM to write a few thousand words every day!

However, I am starting to feel the strain on my schoolwork. I have been working all day, on either schoolwork or on writing, and it doesn't help that this is going to be a busy week. I am not behind, thankfully, (except in Latin and Grammar...I am hoping to do some Grammar tonight, though) but I'm certainly not ahead.

Also, I was thinking about Twilight. Edward Cullen is supposed to be a Christian, is he not? Or at least, he's supposed to believe in God. And the Bible says that you shall know someone to be a Christian because of their fruits, right? (fruits, as in their actions). And Bella, who Edward marries, isn't a Christian? And he marries her? Doesn't the command to 'not be un-equally yoked' come to mind, here? I certainly don't see much fruit from Edward. Just a quick thought that I wanted to share before it totally left my mind.

Well...oh, yeah, this is my 252 post on this blog! I haven't celebrated my 100th or 200 post, so I'm hoping to celebrate my 300th post with...something; I'm not really sure yet.

Edward in the books and movies doesn't really believe that vampires have a soul, and while he doesn't "not believe" in a benevolent All-powerful being, he isn't a Christian, and never claims to be. So we can't judge him by that standard. He's a vampire, a mythical creature that we really can't judge by human standards period. A work of fiction is only the extension of the author.
Just my two cents. :)

Knowing God exist and Believing in him are two different things. Demons know he exists. While Christians know He exist and believe in him for their salvation.

Sorry that was really short, I'm a hurry!

And good work with Nanowrimo!!!
