I dunno. Perhaps a lot of the problem with the Edward/Bella/Jacob arguements occur because the Cullens are so civilized--they act so human . I mean, if you're honest, its hard to think of Edward as being a bloodsuckin vampire, isn't it? I know that the word itself makes Bella cringe at times. Sure,...

Motivation = intent without the necessary intent, most of what you point out doesn't really hold up in court, criminally speaking he lacks the necessary mens rea. On the civil side, she wasn't without use of her truck long enough for her to have much of a case in that matter either. Legally speakin...

If you're going to put out your opinion, and if you're going to say that basic fact is untrue, you should really be ready to take hits for that. I should. If that is what I said. And if my opinion is going to be disregarded as invalid . . . By the way . . . the nerve! You should at least make sure ...

if you're going to refuse to believe what the AUTHOR tells you about HER characters there's no hope for you. Ouch. That’s a little harsh. Do you keep that statement in mind when posting in the Edward thread? 8-) Because I guess the same can be said for those who continue to see Edward as a heartles...

In the response to the building chorus of voices asking me to shorten my posts, I’ll try to respond as succinctly as possible . . . :) I don't like how you try to make JB seem like just some perve who's out for a piece. That's wrong. Uhhhh . . . :shock: Never said that. I have no problem with the wa...

Then , when she goes to say goodbye to him and he says that edward is like a drug for her whereas he would be healthy for her (I am sure it is perfectly healthy behaviour to go around forcefully kissing girls and decieving them into kissing again), she doent contradict him. In Bella's defense (whic...

Anyone else feels the same? :?: I do. I do. Although some would argue that Bella’s willingness to die for Edward was the ultimate test of just how much she loved him. BD went a long way in making me believe that too. Bella stated and showed her love for Edward in BD in ways that made me re-apprecia...

Visitor, your cocoa plant analogy is nice, but it doesn't work here. because you would have bought the plant because you wanted the chocolate..... which is not what jacob did. Why can't people just accept that Jacob fell in love with Bella simply because people fall in love???????? You’re right HOF...

Hmmmm . . . a Jacob opinion . . . I haven’t offered up one of these in a long while. So here goes . . . DISCLAIMER: The following is only an opinion. The views being expressed below are not meant to offend. Jacob . . . as characters go, he is fine. BD even made him sympathetic in parts (finally!). B...

Jacob’s book was very therapeutic in helping me get over some of my lingering issues with his character since Eclipse. And what I learned was that, yes, Jacob is really a good character with mostly decent motives. And that, yes, I can FINALLY see why SM and others like him so much. More importantly ...
