I was all gung-ho until we veered off again into the horrible, horrible threat posed by a children's' story that preaches that there is Good and there is Evil and you have to choose and fight Evil.

I have only this against the Catholic Church: why is it that an organization that cannot seem to root out pederasts from it's own midst seems so good at attacking the straw man that is Harry Potter?

I agree 100%! I was very impressed with the article until the Potter bashing. Geez Louise, the Catholics should clean up their own house before chasing windmills...

What does one have to do with the other?
