What religion or belief system do each of the Cullens believe in? What religion were they in mortality and how did that effect their beliefs in immortality?

I think Carlisle was a catholic, and Edward was Christian too.Cocoa wrote:What religion or belief system do each of the Cullens believe in? What religion were they in mortality and how did that effect their beliefs in immortality?

Emmett, I reckon followed Emmettism, and Rosalie didnt care much.
I dunno why, but I always imagined Alice as like a zen religion kind of girl.
Carlisle believes in an afterlife, and Edward does subconsciously too.

Catholics were not tolerated at all during this time in England. Also, remember how Carlisle's father was a preacher? Well, Catholic priests practice celibacy, which means Carlisle would not have happened or be an illigitament child who was parentless.
Although the whole rest of them were probably some form of Christianity. Back in the day you went to church or else you were gossiped about. But if they really were devoted to that religion...eh, probably not.

agreed again.
That's a good point actually... although it could just be an expression. Also Edward has all the ideas about Bella's virtue and heaven, though those are common among many religions and denominations.Doodle wrote:In the first chapter of Midnight Sun with Edward describing school as his own purgatory makes me think of Edward as Catholic, as the concept of purgatory is unique to them I believe.
