Dang, just took the whole war romanticism out of my sarcastic remark about the renewal of the crusades :(.
So you are saying Vatican doesn't have holy hand grenades, holy dove fighter jets, holy cherub bombers, holy drones dispersing holy water & holy napalm, etc?
Ugh, sorry. I wasn’t trying to crush your groove. FWIW, I do admire your sense of humor and bringing up the Knights Templar was romanticizing war…
Seriously?!? I have so much holy water from the Vatican replenished each year that it may be enough to end the drought in Gaza. You want a holy machete? You got it! You want a holy cow? You got it! But not on Fridays. You want an aerial assault with holy water balloons? You got it.
Better yet, I can send you some holy water to make your own holy 💩! Be warned: sprinkling your doors and windows each night with holy water will not stop vampires from entering your home! 😂
Lol, yes but fake romanticising ofc, the whole thing was always just individual money-grabs & war profiteering (you can clearly see where the war support stops - once they get them out the gates, unprepared but equipped). Like any war really.
And no, vampbros are chill. And holy water probably makes them sparkle or some shit like that. They are too hot as is.
... do you think Vatican has a giant holy mecha pope wielding dual nunchucks (that is two pairs of nuns tied together with a heavy duty chain)?

No, it’s not Twilight - it’s Dracula (Bram Stoker read through by chapter). Enjoy.
