“Total antithesis of Jesus Christ.”

Except maybe for the bits about love and sacrifice, themes consistent in all of the Potter books.

Oh, and Potter was one of the few entertainment arenas that acknowledged Christmas.

If I were you, I would read the last book of the series before utterly condemning it wholesale.

You may be surprised. I was.

The book teaches children to participate in spiritual darkness. Do you believe there are demons? Principalities? It never ceases to amaze me how many claim to be Christian yet completely ignore the warnings He gave us.

I used to read Tarot cards. I dabbled in astrology. Did any of us not play with Ouiji boards and seances? I don't think kids realize the door that gets opened when we play with such things. Apparantly a lot of adults don't either.

Demonic principalities are real and they're just waiting to devour our children. Just because there is love weaved in is no reason to dangle our children in front of danger.

Just because one mentions Christmas doesn’t make it a Christian theme. Actually, I don’t believe that the Lord wanted us to celebrate his birth as it is being done on December 25th of every year. There is no reason to believe that Jesus was born on this date, however, there is a reason to believe that this date is the date of the winter solace. Even non Christians can offer love and sacrifice, and many do. That doesn’t make them believers in Jesus Christ.

How easily people are deceived.
