Are you asking me or telling me?

[sinkspur]

You don't seem to be any kind of Christian.

If you're an example of a "Christian," who the hell would want to be one?

You and your cluck-clucking, busybody fellow church ladies are so afraid somebody, somewhere is going to enjoy something that you're willing to DAMN THEM TO HELL for reading a book!

You might be able to walk a little easier if you'd pull out the corncob.

Oh Pooh!!!! Have you even read a Harry Potter book??

[TrueBeliever9]

Thank you. The Harry Potter Books are to attract children into the occult! They appear to be quite successful! A lot of the content also builds upon the "situational ethics" that have been used in public schools for years to destroy a conscience in children! There is no right or wrong (as in the Potter series) -- only what you want! These books are promoted in public schools!

Quite right, so let's use this opportunity to start new Anti-Western rumors here.

America's worship of graven images of 'Porky (the Satanic Talking) Pig' goes back to the 1920s, which is the same time that Western Powers were carving up the Arabian Peninsula for themselves after the hated Ottoman Empire withdrew to Turkey.

It's no coincidence that Trans-Jordan's borders were drawn to look like a pork loin; It was deliberate.

Think of it: Pork and Turkey, both celebratory American 'Thanksgiving' feast meats during the time that observant Muslims fast for Ramadan.

It's all very clear who the Great Satan is.

I am ashamed of my fellow so called "Conservatives" and "Christians" who scoff at the notion that Harry Potter books are just plain wrong. The sad thing is, most of you do it because your kids like Harry Potter, and you don't have the guts to tell them NO. You're afraid to not let them follow the crowd on this one. Talk about SHEEP. There's nothing funny or cute about wiccans, pagans, or witchcraft. The left makes it look cute and fun to draw your children in. Oh well.. it's their little souls you're entrusted with, nothing much to you as long as your kids are happy eh?

[AppyPappy]

but do you not think that children are able to tell the difference between fiction and reality?

No Some adults can't. I still get emails from people thinking they will get Gap certificates for forwarding an email.

The problem is that the marketing behind the books push them at our kids and SOME people don't like the concepts in the books. Kinda like the whole Captain Planet push that corporations were bad and environmentalism is good. I don't want that stuff pushed at my kid. And I don't want them ridiculed because they don't go along with it.

already told my kids if they buy them for the grndkids I will burn them

That's so funny to me. My thirteen year old turned his grandparents, who happen to be 83 and 91, onto the Harry Potter books.

They love them, as he did,and regard them as just a good romp into fantasy.

What if the author of the books had been a nun?

[NATE4"ONE NATION"]

This is why religion in America has been shot to hell.
1. Pornography/fornication are wrong yet Christians, etc still feel it is ok to watch "R" movies with nudity.
2. Satan is evil, witchcraft wrong, yet most of you allow your childeren to feed thier minds on it "no big deal" but take them to church on Sunday mornings.
Examples of this hypocracy are all over the place. Most of you probably hate Clinton and his lack of morals in office yet have no clue how to define proper morality yourselves. Give it a couple years and sleeping with interns, being a peacenick traitor and losing classified info will all be relative and unimportant to most of you also.
You let your kids get indoctrinated with crap like that early, don't be surprised when they want to attend Berkeley and think burning the flag is hip and that they are all "little gods."

If your young children (say, aged 10-14) wanted to read Mein Kampf, or literature given to them by The Young Socialists' party, would you let them?

Sure, why not? I was 12 or 13 when I first read Mein Kampf and didn't run off to join George Lincoln Rockwell's American Nazi Party. And I read The Communist Manifesto and the first volume of Das Kapital (no one reads the rest of it) in high school. I didn't run out and become a Trotskyite, either. Now, when I read Margaret Murray's The God of the Witches and The Witch Cult in Western Europe, and Gerald Gardner's High Magic's Aid and Witchcraft Today...... I didn't run out and become a Wicced Witch! Oh well,.....

[kingh99]

definitely so. I am no bible thumper but my 5th grader is saying these incantations to kill people or freeze them.

I believe Bob Marley quoted the bible when he sang

"If you say a curse then God will pass the worse"

[goodieD]

BTW..the books "Heather Has Two Mommies" is cute and easy to read too, would you like your kids reading that? Why not? As long as they're reading, right?

[francisandbeans]

the capital letter "t" seems to appear quite a bit in your post. Every truebeliever knows that the capital t is the sign of the cross, and that we must not overuse the sign of the cross as to do so with dishonor J-sus. Please refrain from using the capital letter t so often in the future.

I pray for your soul.

[NATE4"ONE NATION"]

Outstanding!!!
I wish I could've said it that way myself!

"already told my kids if they buy them for the grndkids I will burn them."

Uncle Osama would be proud of you. Have you considered joining the Taliban? You'd have to give up you internet connection, though.

Our loss.

[alpowolf]

Sounds like you read the books...so how many magic spells have you done? Oh, that's right: you're different.

How about we let the children have a childhood before we send them to the trenches of the Holy Wars?

[gdani]

If your young children (say, aged 10-14) wanted to read Mein Kampf, or literature given to them by The Young Socialists' party, would you let them?

Yes. Why not? It's a book. It's full of ideas. That does not mean that anything horrible will happen. I read Mein Kampf and the Communist Manifesto in high school as I'm sure many others did. Yet *somehow* we all managed to survive.

You obviously do not give kids or parents enough credit.

[martin gibson]

"Bewitched" and I sold my soul to Satan...

You think THAT'S rough, I fell under the influence of the the back-masked 'Mr. Ed' theme.

Now, I eat babies.

[francisandbeans]

They are all blasphemers I tell you.
