God doesn't play favorites; that's a human quality.
The only way for Alucard to be damned was if he were to turn away from God himself; by his own choice, much like Mathias did.
I'm sorry; did we read the same Bible? The Abrahamic God often played favorites.
I'm into spirituality; not religion. I am self-selective in what I feel is true to me.
If there are things about God that sound negative, I question them thoroughly without fear. I don't believe in sin as we are only human and thus we make mistakes.
He will be reincarnated as Soma and Mina's kid and his name will be Amos.
From "Encyclopedia of Castlevania"Sounds cool, thanks for sharing! :)

Alucard is the hybrid with human and vampire.
When he dies, human's portion disappears.
Only a vicious vampire remains.
He is not allowed to die.
Now, THAT would make for an awesome plot.
IGA, why u write plots so retarded with such awesome ideas?
If xtianity is true in the CV world, or in the real world even, then everyone is fuct and going to hell....
... Last time I checked, NOBODY really lives by those tenets, in the CV world or the real one.
That's what repentance is for.
It might differ depending upon the denomination (I don't know) but how I understand it is:
1. you're going to Hell by default unless you accept JC. This is why denying the holy spirit is the one unforgivable sin.
2. you're still going to Hell unless you repent of the sins you commit. This is because it is (as stated in the Bible) impossible to live a life free of sin. (Oddly enough, Enoch and Elijah were said to be free of sin and God actually took him alive into Heaven, despite Jesus saying that no one has ascended into Heaven. That's a whole mess of contradictions right there. XD)
LOL so all the things that Jesus taught can easily be ignored, as long as you repent before you die. Why do people even bother to put all that effort into believing it (making excuses, etc) if that's the path they all end up taking, anyways?
With this goody-two-shoes thing he has going on, it's gonna be natural causes (heh). Or maybe sacrifice himself like the dhampir Jesus he is.
Ugh..I really feel he is getting wasted as a character in his present state. And now it's probably all Gabricula this and Satan that for years. I am interested in knowing what IGA had planned. Just to see if he actually had something interesting going on.
5 Do you think that Alucard should be in a future platform based Castlevania title?
Could someone please clarify some things to me religilously and otherwise.
1 Is God the only uncaused cause in existence?
2 If 1 is true then what was the cause of vanity, disobedience, pride and all of the other things said to have been inherent in man?
3 If there is an adversarial force to God why was it able to become that way?
4 If God is all loving and does not change i.e. is the same yesterday today and tomorrow where did this angry God come in?

My feelings on Alucard is that he would probably either go to Heaven or be obliterated.

I really don't want to jump off-topic with this, but it seems that these discussions are inevitably linked. I'll try and answer some of them for you but keep this in mind; Everyone has their own ideas and believes about what religion is so...No 1. Word
From what I studied here and there, God has always been around and will always be around. As far as I know he/she is eternal and everlasting and there is just nothing else out there that created God or lead to God's creation.
Simple; Humans. Humans have a soul but they also have what's known as the human ego. The ego our biological identity and it is through this that negativity is abound. The ego wasn't created by God, it manifested on it's own. I'm still trying to find out how exactly it did that.
People have their own ideas of what God's "opposite" is so I don't want to offend anyone here. But I will tell you of what I heard: During the creation of souls a group of them broke away from God and became 'Dark'. The purpose of Dark entities is to extinguish 'Light' as they cannot survive in it. To them it is detestable and disgusting. To me these entities are far more dangerous then any demon (Lucifer or Satan) cause they can reincarnate as humans like us. But you wouldn't know if someone was a dark entity unless you knew what to look for. But sometimes it's blatantly obvious as you'd get a kind of gut-feeling telling you that something about said individuals was off one some level or another. for instance If you looked at a person who was just like everybody else except he/she was the only one to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end, then chances are that person is a dark entity.
The human ego.
Most definitly. I think he's a really cool character and it's always a blast to play such a character.
Not my point.
Hey, it's not like Iga didn't have enough chances.
my_choice = choose( watch_MrX_die, try_to_save_MrX, expedite_death_of_MrX, turn_a_blind_eye )
switch ( my_choice )
{
case watch_MrX_die:
case turn_a_blind_eye: feel_guilt(); feel_shame(); feel_remorse(); burn_in_hell=true; break;
case try_to_save_MrX: with(MrX) death_by_fire(); with(self) death_by_fire(); burn_in_hell=false; break;
case expedite_death_of_MrX: goto_jail(); burn_in_hell=true; break;
}
Energy cannot be created or destroyed, according to Science. God=Energy.
Maybe "God" is something that believes itself to be the supreme being and failing to understand that he can't overpower that "energy" and can't therefore be truly omnipotent. I believe this has been suggested in several works of fiction.Because we were discussing whether or not Alucard would go to Heaven if he was killed. It shouldn't be surprising that we would start taking about religion. After all, we learn about Heaven from our faiths. So talking about God and what he/she/it is would happen sooner or later.
..How did this topic end up talking about God..?
Well, demons are Dracula's bitches in Castlevania. Death was Drac's bitch, but LoI I took to suggest Drac is Death's bitch and Death finds it much easier just to let vampires play with themselves (just like my fiance). So in a way, we can kinda rule the whole argument moot: if there is a Hell, there's apparently no Satan to pusnish sinners because Dracula would then have no control over the demons, since even in demonmancy, the demons still are more powerful than the invokers who are must appease the demons in order to save their own hides. So if Alucard dies and goes to Hell, so what? It's not a place of eternal damnation, just a realm of demons and enslaved souls.Yeah. Alucard goes to hell and slays all the demons for eternity and becomes its ruler.
Yeah, that's Dracula's real curse.lol.
Yeah. Alucard goes to hell and slays all the demons for eternity and becomes its ruler.
*Dracula gets killed. again.*
Alucard: Hi dad. You staying long.
Dracula: No. My human followers should have resurrected shortly.
A: Well, until then, you are going to suffer for your sins.
*something starts happening to Dracula*
A: What's happening!?
D: It would seem that my followers are in the process of resurrecting me and there's nothing you can do to stop it. Farewell my son.
A: I'm not worried. You'll be back within the hour. The Belmonts will see to that.
*one hour later*
A: Welcome back.
D: Not again.
*This goes on over and over again for eternity.*
