Harry Potter and the Small Minded Christian

Poor small minded people. Their ignorance just amazes me.

I was surfing the internet trying to find a picture of a wand to go on the Harry Potter shirts I'm currently making for Dee, Ashley and me for the release of the FINAL Harry Potter book (excuse me as I brush away a few tears) and found this picture:


Which led me to this site:

http://www.exposingsatanism.org/harrypotter.htm

Which is full of falsehoods about the books and this really intelligent quote:

This page is for those who seek truth about the book series Harry Potter. Many think it is just harmless fantasy. True it is fantasy, but it is laced with witchcraft and demonology as are most books like it. Many say it gets children reading books who never would do so. I give you this tid-bit to ponder on. If your child did not like to take medicine and you had a chocolate drink with the medicine, plus arsenic in it, would you give it to them? You would if you did not know it was in there and what arsenic was. It is the same scenario with fantasy especially when it is laced with the poison of witchcraft.


As well as falsehoods about JK Rowling:


The author also uses occult terms in her thinking. Look at this new age phrase. "I have a very visual imagination. I see it, then I try to describe what is in my mind's eye," This minds eye concept is the heart of the new age movement. It is the ability to escape ones confines of this world and to explore the other dimensions of existence.

That last part made me laugh out loud. Seriously?!

The whole site makes me more certain than ever why so many worldly people hate anyone that has the name Christian. We're depicted in society as hateful Bible beaters who have no compassion for anyone that is different. I just pray that I will have the strength to uphold my beliefs and still be compassionate to those who are lost.
