"Sigh. IF the Harry Potter books were real, then yes, it would be occult because in the real world, magic is occult. In fantasy, which is what the books are, that isn't necessarily true."
It is amazing to me how many people don't see how what we read, even in fantasy, becomes a part of our worldview without us even realizing it.
You might be right, stuff in Harry Potter does match my world view. Like maybe standing up to evil, even when it's hopeless. Never betraying your friends, but being willing to stand up to them when they're wrong. Working hard to achieve your goals. Putting aside differences so you can work with people.
I like that worldview.
