Does he really give a flying f**k? I don't think so.

I believe he does. As a Christian, I love to go to church and the Bible does teach that God loves our worship. However I agree with you in that I don't see anywhere in the Bible that childrens' books are somehow evil

How about "Heather has Two Mommies"?

I really and truly believe that God, in all his/her omnipotence, has no need for a sanctioned "cheering squad" on his behalf. I would even go so far as to say that DEMANDING worship from us is a bit arrogant. IMO, I would say that all he/she/it wants is for us to appreciate a good thing. Look at the sunset. Appreciate it. Say, "Gee, that was really cool! Thanks!" Sit by a stream on your lunch hour (if you can). Smell the air. Listen to nature. God is all around you. God is IN you. I've thought and prayed about this (prayer meaning meditation) and I keep getting the same answer.

And as far as HP goes, fer cryin out loud...Satan worship and practicing the occult have been going on a lot longer than the books have been around. One should be happy that their child is reading instead of whining about "Why can't I get a cell phone? Everyone else in my third grade class has one!" Okay, I'm off topic. Rant over.

BTW, God? That was a great sunset last night. Thanks.
