Better skip "Lord of the Rings" too with all of their wizards and goblins.

Abracadabra! I just cast a spell on you. I have cursed you to start thinking rationally!
To: Chuckmorse
BTW
Reading a Harry Potter book no more makes you a witch than reading the Bible makes you a Christian

The claim that reading Harry Potter will make you evil is remarkably similar to the claims of the anti-gun lobby. We need to get rid of guns because guns kill. Guns don't kill, people kill. Books don't make you evil.
One can maintain a healthy relationship with God and enjoy a horror movie or a fantasy novel. Neither will make you evil, only your heart can do that.

The Missionary Wahabi Church of America wants to burn some books. Yawn.

With all the real evil in the world, he's on a witch hunt against a fictional Character. How many adult's now have never read, played or pretended they were Wizards or Witch's. This guy is in his own Mythical Wonderland if he thinks that this is going to turn our kids to Evil Witch's. The next thing he'll be doing is talking the local library into burning all books not pertaining to Christ or God. Some people just don't have a clue about real life.

Both my sons have read the Harry Potter and thanks to the detailed instruction contained within, they have both become full-fledged wizards. I think it's kind of neat. We were stuck in traffic one day so they put a spell on the car to make it fly. Everytime they do something bad, they do a "memory erase" spell on me so I forget what it was they did (they are such nice boys). If I don't like somebody, I just tell them to put a curse on them. For example, this one guy cut me off in traffic and gave me the finger so I had my oldest son flatten all four of his tires and he even caused the engine to seize. Pretty cool.

Relax for God's sake. If you this tense and anal retentive all the time, your anus will get seal shut forever, then where will you be?

I'm in TOTAL agreement with you and it is amazing to me how when anyone takes a stand against the occult the chorus of pro-witchcraft people start to rail. Typical, I guess the TRUTH HURTS.HARRY POTTER IS WITCHCRAFT! GET OVER IT.
To: Chuckmorse
Man. I've read those books, and even when I try really hard and wiggle my nose, none of the spells work! I can't even fly a broom any direction other than down! And when I contacted the local Wiccan association and said I wanted to become a wizard like Harry Potter the woman hung up on me! Who is this guy who's managed to get something more than a good story and some laughs out of this book? I'd like to ask him how he does it.

I would not but these books as gifts or go to the movies
So don't, but bypass the crusade against those of us capable of distinguishing fantasy books from reality.

You have too much time on your hands. Get a job. It's OK to leave the house once in a while.

It should be obvious even to people that don't wear tin foil hats that the books are about witchcraft. After all, it is about wizards and witches.
The question that should be debated is: is it OK to allow children to read books about witchcraft that present witchcraft in a positive light?
Conservative Christians in general think not. That hardly rates a tin foil hat alert given the amount of scripture that backs up their position.
