if you had followed the discussion in the thread you would know that i identified the quotes as coming from then Cardinal Ratzinger. While you take Potter over Pope, i will side with the poor misguided old pontiff "tilting at windmills". i think he knows his job and the enemy quite well.dare i say, even better than you... : )
I've got to leave as soon as I finish this paperwork so I can meet with my customer before she goes to work-I'll have to come to class later. I have not read any of the "Harry Potter" stuff, but one of my neighbors told me her kids were pretty much bored with the books-they liked historical fiction more because it challenged them to read more about the era and events described in the story, which is no doubt a better pursuit than having them daydreaming that they can do magic.
Ironic that when the word for the day is tussle, we get into one. It isn't necessarily a choice of Potter over the Pope, but that I think he has chosen an innocuous subject to disagree with.
"i think he knows his job and the enemy quite well.dare i say, even better than you.."
Okay. But I've read her books.
