I was very surprised to see Wicca being touted and witchcraft flouted on "Buffy, the Vampire Killer" on TV. Lots of violence and weird stuff there. Is that dangerous to young minds? (Just a query, no need to flame)

I'm in the "pro" group (I have no problem with Harry, don't see it as pushing anything other than money). As for Buffy, probably the single most dangerous thing to the minds of the young in that show is her cleavage and how regularly they show it. But pubescent boys will get it somewhere, they always do. For me it was all about "Barker's Beauties" (The Price is Right) and praying that one of the grand prizes would have a nautical theme (Barker's Beauties in Bikini's, the 3Bs of my adolescence).

Actually I'm constructing a rather long post about being on the "otherside" of this subsection of the Christian Community for 20+ years. Not sure if it will ever see fruition, or how quickly it will get pulled if I do polish it up. Basically it's about how annoying these people have been with their constant crusades against any form of entertainment I myself enjoy. You name it, if they say it leads to Satanism I did it (D&D, heavy metal, Doom, etc. etc. {Yul Brenner accent} ET CETERA). And while I actually did study the occult for a while the reason I did was these guys, I wanted to find out what they were talking about; what I found was that they were pretty much making stuff up off the top of their heads (pretty much, there's some funky stuff in some heavy metal but in all my years in that crowd I've only met one person that listened to any of those bands, cause they suck).

Anyway, keep an eye out for that one. I'm sure the HP bashers will be all over it, praying for my soul.
