Harry Potter...work of the devil?

well....i shld say i disagree highly. I don't allow my kids to read, watch or buy anything harry potter. Has nothing to do w/popularity. When you mess w/witchcraft it opens doors for every other evil work to come in to your life. Why risk that??
I resent the fact that some of you have put Christians in some "stero type" catagory. It is witchcraft.... does hp not put spells on people in the movie if someone does something to him or his aunt? what is that teaching kids? When someone does something to you, do evil back, now how is that right? that shld tell ya something there. Kids see that and think WOW can i do that?? Whats the name of the school hp is attending?? LOL i mean come on..... and the fact is Witchcraft is real and yes they could do that if they practiced witchcraft. Satan is real!! saying it isn't doesn't change that fact 🙂

just wanna repeat what I said

I think that the people who believe that it's the work of the devil a) need to trust there kids intelligence a little bit more and b) need to get out a bit more, but thats just my opinion 🙂

Kids understand that it is just a story, yes maybe they might get the broom and run around with it pretending to fly. But they are just using there imaginations, its like having an imagnary friend. It is normal, and they understand its not real, other wise I would've ran off to london when I first read the books, and demanded to go on the hogwarts express.

Should they ban Latin from being taught in schools?
I mean, after all, that's where the spells get their names, right? 😉

PLEASE,don't get me started.Christans wouldn't attack HP if it wasn't popular!Its like..."Wow,HP is loved by children all around the world,and even though there are millions of other books worse,lets attck this one for publicity"!

FYI:HP is litature.I don't believe in trashing a book no matter what it is.There are lots of books that could be concidered anti-Christan..those bastards are just going to have to live with it.

You ma'am, are correct.
This is twice that we have agreed now in the past 3 months. Don't let it happen again. 😛

I was right!!! You ARE an uptight conservative Christian douchehead! I f*ckin knew it.

yep, lol

lumos is how u light up a wizards wand. and lumen and luminarium mean light in latin

Yup exactley.......I think people need 2 wake up and smell the flowers I mean...FieryEyes was saying sumthin about not lettin her kids watch it coz they might do sumthin evil [cough]Suuuuuuuure[cough] The worst they might do is think they can do magic and try 2 do it on some1.....and well.......Like it gonna work........I respect that people have difrent belifes and stuff but there are much more "evil" movies out there were kids could get idea's that could acctually harm some1

& 1 question FieryEyes: Have you even read the books??

or lumen its most likely lumen though

You read the Satanic Verses here, then watch out 😬

Satanic Verses??

Wow, ignorance! The book by Salman Rushdie!

Isn't there another HP thread? This rambling should be merged with that or consigned to the KMC trash (the OTF)

😑 I dont read much

This thread needs to stay at a MELLOW tone or I'll close it. I know everyone has their beliefs and disbeliefs but be curtious to others' opinions.

NO BASHING EACH OTHER and Into The Void WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE in my forum!!!!!! 😄 (mean voice on the rise...................... hee hee)

*hides*

😂 Don't hide! 😄

APG everytime I see your ziggy it makes me smile. I loved that movie!

Wich movie....I have 2 ziggys

The one you are sporting now, silly! 😄 I love Puss-n-boots!!

Oh riiiiiiight 😄...I new dat 😛

omg you made me mad! AVADA CADAVER! seriously, i respect your opinion, but if you're not mature enough to read a nice story about the struggles of a kid through his life at school...go back to church. Oh wait...the bible is full of it too, imagine that. I didn't know fixing a pair of glasses was evil compared to parting an entire sea. If you're a parent and have kids that want to cast a spell on someone because they read that Harry Potter did it, then you need to pop the teat out of their mouth and let the see the world some. On the other hand, if they're about 11 years old or so and under...you should be thankful they have the imagination they do along with the fact that they are reading full length novels. Kudos to them, they can cast all the spells they want 🙂 they're kids after all. (i myself shot down many birds by spewing fireballs from my hands back in my younger days lol)
