It has been years now since I saw the first half of the first movie, but I think I remember that his dad is an actual doctor.

So isn't he the one that should have focused on that?

(not that I believe an immortal being would be any better than the researchers we have now)

anyone with ample free time that does not devote their life to the active pursuit of knowledge or bettering their craft is a waste of space

I wonder if vampire brains freeze mentally once they're turned

All people have a right to exist and what they do with their time and their energy is their decision.

Of course it is their decision, but they are still capable of making good and bad decisions. If Hitler was an immortal, no doubt he'd be spending his time badly, in my opinion. Better yet and more current, imagine an immortal Trump..

whilst I agree, I do judge anyone who sits on their hands for a 100 years not wanting to learn more about their existence

... you can't agree and disagree with your point.

whilst I agree (in general), I do (specifically) judge anyone, etc, etc.

e.g. I like seafood in general, but I don't like oysters, you get it

Would vampires be people anymore? I feel like if they have to feast on me, that kinda separates us, but a vampire with human values could easily be considered people if they feed of donated blood, for example, requiring no major changes to current laws. In any case, I would have to think about them in the context.
