I used to work in a center for severly disturbed children (a public school- just kidding). Anyway, it was run by non-christian psychologists, but even they knew not to let the inmates practice witchcraft. See they noticed that in real life, unlike Harry Potter movies, a huge correspondence between participation in witchcraft and a whole list of social pathologies.
In conclusion, give us a break, we are only doing what you do yourselves, and we have good reason to do it.

OK. Levitation. Yup, there. Presented as one of a series of technical skills to be learned by children who had a gift. No direct reference to Satan, demons, or other creatures from the pit. One three headed dog, a few magic wands, one reference to the Phoenix.
The kids get CHRISTMAS off. (Easter, too, in a later story).
I saw no glorification of evil, but rather a story in which children wielding intelligence,loyalty, honor, courage, perseverence, and technical ability overcame evil.
That could be construed as a metaphor for a lot of things.
There was even a great (metaphorical) slam against TV: A magic mirror which showed the viewer exactly what they wanted to see, but never showed the truth. People were described as wasting away before this "evil" device.
If there are specific references I have missed or understated, then please, educate me. After all, I believe in Jesus Christ, and wish for nothing to diminish Him in the eyes of my children.
