The Theology of the "Twilight" Series

Russell Moore posts about this here. Some interesting stuff, really. I have not read the books, but thousands if not millions of young women HAVE read the books, and are seeing the movies. In particular, Moore cites John Granger's thoughtful article in Touchstone here. Specifically, Granger examines the Mormon theology behind the series. I found this fascinating, really, and will look more deeply into it. I preferred when people were drawn to the Harry Potter series, or the Narnia series, as I was on solid ground there. The "Twilight" series breaks new ground for me, and in order to understand the pulse of the culture, I am drawn to what interests the culture. [SDG - JS]
