Yeah.. I don't practice it but some people get the vibe that it's all worshipping the Devil. Which it's not. It's more of a nature thing..
Oh man you even made a thread Fieryeyes, and I still don't even know why you're here. You seem very immature "ewwwww Harry Potter". Come on.

I agree there is nothing wrng w/pretending we've all done it growing up. Some take it more deeper and thats my point. All the magic, sorcery, spells in the movie, it brings the curiosity up, make ya wonder is it real? is it not? thats when it starts, they start searching it out, one thing leads to another and before you know it you're caught up in witchcraft. It can over take you before you know it. I just think it's way too serious to take that chance.
But I f u acctually think about...everythin on the news about christians bannin the books and going on about them being evil is probally making it worse..banning the books 4 1 will (trust me) make the kids want 2 read it even more.....2 draggin all this up also makes it more clear that there is wiccan and stuff out there.......My friend only started lookin in2 witchraft and all that after all the who hare of the books being evil because she wanted 2 find out if they really where and stuff

by the way Pheonix Song, would you mind paying a visit to a thread entitled "harry potter=work of the devil?" we've been talking about the controversy between religion and fiction, and you're the only one as of now that i know who is devout, yet does not see the books as a threat. it would be nice having your opinion in there if you dont mind =]
I would love to 😄

I agree with what you say about taking the books away. It'll just make kids want something they can't have.
I think JK seriously did not intend on this mess that is stirred up. I think her ideas were innocent though now after her books have been torn apart, ridiculed and overlooked with a magnifying glass to look at what she's written.
She has children and she was a poor woman trying to struggle in the world so she took a trip on the train and started writing.
Alot of her characters are based from people that she has met in her life. JK being from England probably drove by a castle while on this train and began to write.
She's a very gifted writer and its sad to see what's being said about her work, not to mention I am sure she will feel dreadful when/IF a kid does try to do magic and succeeds or somehting (wiccan stuff) and then someone else is injured.
I too want to be a writer.........but sheeeeeeeesh......I'm scared now at my work getting torn apart and gone through with a fine tooth comb!
~AA~
APG that is funny! LOL! I would've said thanx, now mind your own business or something....................... 😂
EVERYONE WILL RESPECT OTHERS OPINIONS ABOUT HP, THEY ARE JUST OPINIONS AND IF THEY DON'T LIKE HP THEY DON'T NEED TO BE QUESTIONED WHY THEY ARE HERE.........MAYBE THEY ARE LEARNING ABOUT IT.............OR CURIOUS OF OTHERS' OPINIONS!!!!!!!
You all are my HP crew but I WILL NOT tolerate the bashing of other KMC members.
IF I have to warn anyone again I will close this thread and the other contrevoursy thread!
And it isn't fair to those who want to debate.................................if I find the same people keep disrespecting other KMC members I will have you banned for however many days seems suitable!
NOW EVERYONE GET ALONG!!! 😄

I was asked to post here, being a really big Christian (Jewish Christian actually but let's not get into that....) but I still love HP. 😍
I really don't believe that JK used real spells, and I think HP is more fantasy than real life. I think it's harmless and not at all threatening to Christianity. 😉
People shouldn't listen to what other people say about HP, whether it's good or bad... ❌ They should check it out for themselves! 😄
And yesh everyone get along 😛
I agree about the book burning thing, i wouldn't buy the book then burn it, i thk thats ridiculous.
Twig, i actually didn't mean to make this thread, i was in the thread: hp...work of the devil, i mean to do a reply and i'm new here and just learning how things go and how to post when i made. So that was a mistake making this thread cuz i wanted it posted in the other thread. Sorry and me saying ewww hp lol well thats my opinion hun, just like you have yours, you call me immature but yet you're the one continually being rude to me, instead of just posting your opinion of hp, you have to say something negative directed towards me as a person. So who is being immature? we all have opinions and i thk thats GREAT. I don't put you down and if i have I haven't meant to, i'm just posting my opinions on hp. 🙂 🙂 🙂
i'm here in this thread cuz: hp....work of the devil? to state my opion and to agree that i thk it is the work of the devil. I've not got upset or offeneded by anyones opinion, i thought thats what we are all here for was to state our opinion. So thats what i'm here for. Its just something i'm against. Twig you just seem to constantly speak about me negative instead of just viewing my posts as my opinions. Maybe i'm wrong, i am new here, but I thought thats what we were suppose to do here post our opinions. Its ok to agree to disagree w/someome and state your opinion being rude to someone is a different story and I thk its sad that you view me like that just cuz i dont share your same opinion. 🙁 🙁
