Anyone else seeing Harry Potter at midnight?! :D

I love how fundamentalists attack HP but not Narnia and LOTR's. The irony though is that J.K. Rowling attends church, and the books could practically serve as a religious allegory, with Harry's sacrifice, reincarnation... Dumbledore and Voldemort as respective good/evil, God/Satan figures etc. etc.

 

most people who burn these books or prevent their kids from reading them have never read it, and just use it as some kind of scapegoat for their religious outrage.

Agreed 100%, all great points.

They don't attack Narnia and LOTR because most Christians typically believe that Lewis and Tolkein were good Christian people and wrote about stories that parallelled with the bible.

exactly, but somehow they go off trying to contrast J.K. Rowling as some satan-worshipping atheist who wants to destroy their children.
