It is incomprehensible to me, that these supposed Christians, are so zealous, that it makes them fear exposure to something, which they misinterpret, and then expound on THEIR opions, as though it were GOD's

Could be it is God's

Deuteronomy 18:14
For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee, the LORD thy God hath not suffered thee so [to do].

Jeremiah 29:8 For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Let not your prophets and your diviners, that [be] in the midst of you, deceive you, neither hearken to your dreams which ye cause to be dreamed.

Jeremiah 27:9

Therefore hearken not ye to your prophets, nor to your diviners, nor to your dreamers, nor to your enchanters, nor to your sorcerers, which speak unto you, saying, Ye shall not serve the king of Babylon:
27:10For they prophesy a lie unto you, to remove you far from your land; and that I should drive you out, and ye should perish.

Malachi 3:5 And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in [his] wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger [from his right], and fear not me, saith the LORD of hosts.

Revelation 22:15 For without [are] dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

Revelation 21:8

But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

You seem to spend an aweful lot of time defending HP..makes me wonder why???

You know, don't you, that YOU spend even MORE time on thee threads, posting cherrypicked scriptures, and heaping calumny on people, whom you don't know ? You have accused many of being " bad " Christians, advocating " evil " , and claiming that they haven't read the Bible to their children, when they have done. Why is that ?

Posting scroptures, higglity pigglty , and ignoring the parts where GOD has actually FAVORED someone who uses their gift from GOD, to do what you would claim is " occult ", is hypocritical. Isn't Joseph's dream interpretation dabbling in foretelling the future ? If not, why not ?

If the HP series bothers you so much, then stay away from them. It's as simple as that. It's a pity that your faith is so shallow, that you believe that these books will make other Christians reneg their faith. It won't.

Have you nt told / read your children fairy tales, " THE WIZARD OF OZ ", and / or any of the variations of the Arthurian legend ? How about Shakespeare's " A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM " and the Scottish play. ( I won't even type the name, as most thatre folk won't; that's just tradition.) : - )
