I'd been kicking around ideas regarding why religious icons are a problem for vampires (especially because I'm a proponent of the scientific approach to explaining vampirism). Here's my theory. The vampire condition makes the vampire *extremely* senstivie to stimuli (sounds, smells) and to energy forces (that's why they can't tolerate the multiple energies of the sun: light, heat, radiation, etc.). Religious items that carry the faith of the believer are surrounded by a powerful psychic energy, and this energy is strong enough to overstimulate the vampire's senses, thereby causing pain. In "Fright Night," an offbeat vampire thriller/comedy movie, the vampire notes that a cross is only an effective deterrent if the person brandishing it has true faith. Perhaps this is true in the FK universe as well. A cross (or other religious item) held by a faithless person carries no energy and is harmless.

That's more or less why I say that the person who *conseecrated* the icon must have faith, not necessarily the person holding it.

If it is, then I would suggest that we go to who ever has the rights to FK and get copies from them. I can't believe that in this day and age someone actually didn't type this on a computer. That way it would save a lot of time and work. If the show indeed is going to be canceled (God forbid), then I don't see the harm in putting the scripts into a ftp site for those interested in reading episodes that we can't see (I'm cable-televison deprived).
