I’m not a “Twilight” series reader. And I don’t really have a desire to be. I have, however, always enjoyed stories of the supernatural – even entirely fictional ones. I thought the comments in this video regarding our humanly inherent quest for eternal life and the supernatural and how traditionally such stories were quite imaginatively and far more appropriately situated within the “far greater meta-narrative of Christianity” were quite interesting:

It is true that the vampire craze is not a problem for catholic faith. But not only because it’s a way to understand that we are already immortal because Christ saved us. Actually I think vampires belong to the fairy tales world, described by Tolkien in Faërie, and may be linked to the fact that we need to be enchanted in This world and that every writer has a part to play in this task, describing worlds and creatures good or evil but beyond our reality. Thus fairy tales are an inviation not only to the quest of immortality but to the true fairy tale which is the Gospel, a fairy tale at work every day.
Sorry for my bad english, and as a French my thoughts are only clear in my own language !

Both Twilight and religion are fairy tales. Twilight just happens to be entertaining enough for young girls to pay 8 dollars to see, whereas religion has to be enforced by stern parents or a since of self hatred and fear of an angry invisible father figure.
What does “since of self hatred” mean?
