I don't know how he can argue it, i see nothing biblically wrong with HP.
Also, I mean that young kids shouldn't read HP, you know, REALLY YOUNG kids. 10, 11+, thats fine.
I don't understand religious people who think that Harry Potter's books are an evil. That's a nonsence. What's so bad in them? There's nothing that could impel children to do bad things. Do they think that it's evil because of the magic? Then why did they latch only onto HP books?There are many books of fantasy and magic. Why don't they burn them?
I hate those people who burn books. It's not ethical. And that's ironic because people who do that should be ethical. And it's doesn't matter is it Hp book or other one. They can't burn it. It's so awful.
😠 😠 😠
wow i never new that The Omega!!! You would expct them to keep the books and not burn them. have you heard the storie of Joan of Arc? Well yah they thought that she was using Witchcraft or something to help the ppl. She Cut her hair like a boy so that she could go into battle. and put mens clothes on. she brought her ppl to like Victory and they burned her. and after they did that a man in the crowd said "We just killed a Saint"! well i think that is what he said anyways. it is a very dumb reason to ruin trees and forests just so that they can ruin ppl lives.
I mean the poor would probally welcom the books into there lives to have something to read! yah and the church would be doing something great for ppl. well that is just my opoin.

I think that book burners are terribly stupid! They aren't burning something that "glorifies satan", they're burning a classical piece of literature. I mean, what harm does the Harry Potter series do to kids? Nothing! There aren't any secret messages telling them to worship Satan and his work. And the way that JK writes it makes is seem that maybe there IS a wizardry world out there. If there were, then why are they hiding from us? I'll tell you a reason why. It's because everyone fears and hates what we can't understand. An example of those people as those book burners in that article. They don't understand that Harry Potter is only for entertainment for both children AND adults, just as it is to help expand everyone's imangination, and let them escape from their ordinairy lifestyles. So in my final words, all I have to say is to next time be open minded about something that you don't understand, and try to understand it.
*shakes head* Gosh... when will people learn
haha omg,i cant believe ppl pike dat still exict...burning books...
i personally dont beliave in a word the bible says,i thinks is more of it as a book,filled wih exadurated stories that have been passed from person to person so much,that it totaly changed into this bizzare myth
also,from my point of veiw,it looks like satan is working way harder than god for example,there are more bad thigns happening than good things,also,have u see the movies Final destination 1&2?
i mean he kills people day and night,car chrash here,fire there
but its only once in a while u get a "miracle"
and no,god doesnt love every1,becouse he wouldn't let the twin buildings in us to collapse
👿 🤘 👿 🤘 👿
i dont really believe in the bible all that much either, it was written by a person and is no different than any other storybook. but every man or woman has their own free will and that is way planes crashed into the twin towers not because God "let" it happen.
