Welcome to Gaia! ::

I LOVE HARRY POTTER! People are debating whether or not to ban Harry Potter from school libraries. I think it's getting WAY out of hand. So what if it has scorcery in it! That doesn't mean that kids are going to go Satanic or anything!!

Its the best!!!!! I have so many HP things in my room! Umm, the 6th isn't out yet is it? Its release date is July 16... confused

Ooh, *randomly screams at people who are against it, saying it's against religion and stuff* XD I had a lady come up to me at a bookstore once telling me that I shouldn't read HP because Jesus loves me, and that the books teach you spells and stuff.

HP has boosted so many kid's reading skills, it's also given them a hobby that will get them off the computers razz Also, I belive that it heightens they're observational skills, because when they watch the movies, they want to point out what's missing.

Just my personal opinion. I pratically live off of that series!

I used to hate it, sneer at the people who read it. Until I read it myself. They are some really good books.
I guess the parents are just tryna protect their children in a sense. But what about LOTR, and The Chronicles of Narnia? Both of them have some level of magic and sorcery yet they're not being slandered. Or maybe its cos both authors were Christians?

It whatsoever does not teach you wizardry. Its just pure fiction. Smesh.

And um, the sixth book is due out in July. The one you may have 'read' could be a fake. Or you could have just read a brief summary.

harry potter teaches me sorcenry really? Sweet!

*concentrates and tries to levitate stapler on desk*

it isnt working sad I guess my pencil dsotn make a good wand.

seriously i think Harry potter is a good story. the books are fantastic and I think they are very tru to life. I mean not all that magic stuff but the characters themselves are very real.

people dotn want their kids to read harry potter becuase it some how relates to satan in their mind. but here is somethign to thinka bout. Satan is the great deciver, the church teaches us to get educated. education is important to your development and helps you to develope tools you can use to defeat satan. some one who is uneducated i think is more liekyl going to fallow satan becuase. we get educated though reading.
in away if you think about it it is Satan who is causing parent to not aloow them to read harry poter.
Harr Potter took the world by storm it gets kids to read instead of play video games and watch T.V. Satan rather have use Watch T.V. non child oriented material can escap into the childs mind that way. even during family show you will see advertisments for beer, male enhancement drugs, and teh glorification of imodest dress and/or behavior. You don't find that in harry potter. Video games arnt much better sometimes. Think about it. I would rather my children read the watch T.V. a childs brain develops more, and stories like harry potter don't promote imoral behavior. So it is my opinion that it is the work of the devil to not let your children read harry potter, rather then it being satanic to allow them to do so.

Well, as long as you don't sell it, it's legal...technically. Where's this blog? *starts to search website* I haven't heard of a place with it, and I have alot of friends that are into Harry. Hey! We celebrate his birthday...and ended up watching stargate sweatdrop ...and reading slugyfreelance sweatdrop sweatdrop

not all ppl are against HP because of sorcery influence...some are concerned that HP's consistent breaking of the rules will influence their children to do the same.....just thought i'd let u know.....i'm all for the books and am excitedly awaiting the release of the 6th.
