There's not one single factual error in that post. The factual errors are all yours, the HP books are not chock full of occult references. Back up your claim with facts, I'm sick to death of people like you driving people away from Christianity with your condemning narrow minded BS. You people are disgusting, the true tools of Satan or the people condemning that which they don't know and hiding behind the Bible while they do it making Christiandom as a whole look like idiots.

You got facts bring em, you don't got facts admit you're making crap up. Of course the truth is you don't have facts, I know it, everyone who's actually read the HP books and knows anything about real work occult knows it, the only people that don't know it are the ones condemning HP. Every decade this crowd of pathetic morons has to pick something to condemn, and they're always wrong, and always drag Christianity down with them.

*************

I'm sorry you're so upset. I can't agree that this discussion is in any way dragging Christianity down, however.

I've watched it happen. There's a big chunk of fandom that doesn't want anything to do with Christians because they've been getting told for so long that what they enjoy can't be enjoyed by Christians and is evil they just couldn't take it anymore. In many ways a person is defined by what they do to relax, they are people that enjoy things like Potter or D&D, then this crowd tells them over and over that they can't enjoy those things and be Christian, so eventually they accept this summary judgement and walk away from Christianity. Nobody over on the other side, the Rowling's or the Gygax's, are telling them they can be one or the other not both; so they have a choice to make, they can pick the side that is welcoming them or pick the side that's pushing them away. Of course the reality is the side pushing them away is doing so on false assumptions and poor facts, but that just makes it easier to let them push you away, who wants to identify with people that are so wilfully ignorant.
