You really need to look into the history of the pentagram, either way it means evil. Unless thats what you want.

It is the body and blood of Christ. In a Spiritual way He is really there. (The concept of gaining power from drinking blood is very old. From primitive times.) But to be a Vampire you have to suck the blood out of your victim. So it in not the same.
I disagree with the woman above me. The pentagram represents the human being when the point is up. I see the way that you have it and that does represent evil. You have it with the horns up.

Yes, as the Catholic Church states that the priest is actually turning the bread and wine into the body and blood of Christ. Of course even as a good Catholic I never believed that part.

Catholics receive the body and blood of the risen and glorified Jesus Christ, which is no longer the same as our purely human and physical flesh and blood.
But I'm curious ... exactly how stupid are you?

well, i think catholics are the only ones who believe that they are actually eating the body and drinking the blood. that would make them vampires, yes.
that makes me wonder... say a vampire drinks the blood of a christian. the christian then becomes a vampire... does the new vampire still behave as a christian would?

You would be a symbolical vampire, because you're dirnking symbolic blood. except you actually get drunk in church.

I've heard some say that.
I'm not sure I agree, but then I'm not a Christian.

no, because we are not drinking it to sustain life, we are consuming it to be part of him

It does seem a bit cannibalistic...
