Got spare money?

HAhAHAHAHHAHA.

I don't miss the nutcase days at all. oh yeah JK Rowling is indoctrinating children into her demonic religion and will have the children she contols through her evil ways demand that she is named empress of the world.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

You must be kidding. Even SKILORD thinks this is ridiculous. They had letters about this in the Luthran newsletter thing and i must say that those letters are almost as ridiculous as this is.

It's like Salem all over again.

Not to mention all those Magic: the Gathering cards, Star Trek (with it's quite obvert bias towards atheism), a whole bunch of kiddie stories such as Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Alice in Wonderland, the whole works.

About Star Trek. That's not entirely true. Especially in DS9. And especially this one episode of Voyager having to do with spirituality. This was back when Kes was still there.

But yes, for the most part, the Federation is atheistic.

But at least they don't practice that dern magic...

Ah, but the important question is…











When is the fifth book coming out????

The writer's bibliography is laughable, her logic is loose: as William Burroughs would say "it's full of holes, it's full of holes." Also, her information is incredibly incorrect. I personally doubt she's read any of the books. She claims that the order to kill Cedric comes from "an unkown source" when it comes from Voldemort. It's errors like that that absolutely riddle their article with inadequacies.

wow Your right. This date should be marked somewhere It must be a sign. A big one that claims that harry Potter isn't satanic.

have you read any of the books Cloud9? has anyone who rabidly stands against Harry Potter ever read any of the books? I sincerely doubt it.

while I agree what we take into our bodies and minds influence us

(which is why kids can't get into rated R movies)

I don't see how Harry Potter is worst than most anything else (I have not read the books, only watched the movie)

probably, if I was a parent now I would want my children to have a little maturity before reading the books (I have heard some of the later ones are fairly serious), like say be in say the 2nd or 3rd grade

BTW, some, like Lorizael, made good responses without the insults

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

Turning the "white magic is as bad as black magic" argument by 90°:
Usually kids know by an age of three or four that there isn't any magic in the world (Unless God plans to do so, but he wisely refrains from doing it). They know there are no dragons. But they have still fun in listening to fairy tales. The most important influence which could make them believe otherwise are adult persons who tells otherwise. Be it Occultists or Christian fundamentalists which are therefore likewise evil.

Why is the faith of those fundamentalists so weak that they fear fantasy books?

P.S. I'm non-fundamentalist Christian. Catholic and adherent to the Marian Minimism.

Wait if Harry is immoral then what about star wars!

We can't have kids running around spouting nonsense about the 'force' and trying to (heaven forbid) fight with those demon toy lightsabres, Idolizing Darth Maul and Vader!

I am also curious on how Cloud9 feels about Narnia. And Brave New World, one of my favourite books.

P.S. I can't WAIT until Cloud9 of a Christian Fundie gets a hold of the 'his dark materials' trilogy! The humans have a war with heaven, and the Church is an evil dictatorship that still kills and now abducts children for Nazi-style experiments! Cloud9, PLEASE read them (the first one is called the northern lights or the golden compass), I would very much enjoy hearing your viewpoint on these, another three of my favourites.

the first one is golden compass

while fair books, they are marketed as kids books but I do not consider them appropriate for most elementry school students

I mentioned both names, as it was marketed in the UK as the Northern Lights. It's more of a young adult/adult type book, and here, it was aimed much more at people in second year and above of Secondary Education (about 13 year olds, and then, only really the ones interested in reading would pick it up).

I know the books of which he speaks.

They aren't bad at all.

How do you feel about secular music Cloud9?

Somewhere i made a post about playing God by "transmitting his will." is this a case of that? Do you have some personal grudge against Mr. Potter and wish to make us beleive that God doesn't like him either in order to carry out your own vendetta?
