So, Harry Potter teaches our young impressionable youth witchcraft then? Horror of horrors, what if they read (GASP!) science fiction? It would be horrific, our children might be lead astray believing in evolution rather than creationism.
But, I would argue that no self-respecting elementary school child would pick up a book that is NOT the bible, especially not one as evil as Harry Potter, because the bible is so very stimulating to our youth.
I have a much better idea - our friend who wants to ban Potter is thinking far too small. Shouldn't she try to ban Libraries instead? _____________
Thought for the day... Doesn't it irritate you when the bookstore has their sections all messed up? Every time I walk into Chapters I have a dark urge to rearrange the books and move the bibles into the fiction section where they belong...
