Yes, there are certain themes I believe would be damaging to children, and others that I find overall quite harmless. Letting kids entertain themselves by imagining flying brooms, invisibility blankets, etc. doesn't bother me. It's all harmless fun.
And as far as using my own personal morality code, I believe God gave me a brain for a reason, to think independently and act on what I feel is right. I pity you, never allowing yourself anything in life before checking the Book to see if you have permission.

***I believe God gave me a brain for a reason,***
He also gave you a Bible.

"No argument? Try a personal attack! It's fun and doesn't require nearly the effort of a real argument."
Excellent comments. My thoughts exactly.
My three year old was just trying to fly off the couch like Superman. Somebody might consider that bad, too, I suppose. Sometimes I think these people who complain about Harry Potter books are such --- muggles. lol.
