No, you learn to use YOUR mind and think. You also need to do research on the author and the books she has read which inspired this series. Yes, its boogeyman, and the author shows kids how to reject parental authority and gain power for themselves through this school of wizardry. Interesting isn’t it, that the school teaches spells, etc.?

Its apparent that you are ignorant of the spiritual warfare we engaged in on a daily basis. Satan wants people to think and believe its harmless fiction.

How easily it is to deceive so many!

What do you think of Stan Lee and Steve Ditko’s ‘Dr Strange’ comics in the 1960s?

Why do you think that Hogwarts teaches kids to “reject parental authority” and “gain power for themselves”? Most of the parents that send their kids to the school attended it themselves, and it is nothing more then a boarding school that is the setting for a fictitious novel. Is it the word “witch” and/or ‘”witchcraft” that scares you? If I were going to write a book enticing people to join the occult, I certainly wouldn't call it fiction and I certainly wouldn't be so overt as to call the main characters witches and wizards. I wouldn't have it revolve around the world of magic. May I ask, have you read any of the books? If the answer is yes, do you believe yourself to have been pulled into the occult? If you say no, how have your formed your staunch anti-Harry Potter beliefs, if you haven't read them yourself?

Here’s what I think, with my mind.
1) You’ve never read the books, you are simply relying on something someone else told you, probably your pastor or sunday school teacher.
2) I’m certain your pastor and/or sunday school teacher tell you to think independently and to critically think on your own.
3) Lord of the Rings uses the same good versus evil (and spells) and yet Tolkien used it for an analogy for christianity.

Feel the same about him???

Sometimes...a book is just that...a book.

You “Harry Potter is the Devil” people are ridiculous, and you NEVER have the facts straight. You ALWAYS make up garbage and try to pass it off as the truth. Harry repeatedly shuns gaining personal power.
