Donna, you're ignorant if you think any Christians are gonna read that and stop their children from reading Harry Potter. There are already Bible-beating fundies who condemn Harry Potter. The Christians who have heard this million times and just ignore it as extremist nonsense will just keep on ignoring it.
I agree there is some truth to the statement. If you're Christian and want to raise your kids Christians, they shouldn't be reading fantasies about witchcraft. That's a no-brainer.
As a non-Christian I think they're silly to get stirred about it though.

So reading about a vengeful God who smites people is in no way scary to a kid? Or how about a God who talked to people and told them what to say. The bible stories are just as fantastical and more brutal. I would think you would raise your kid to know fantasy from reality.
This is a different lane than your other post. Would you like to debate whether Christianity and religion is stupid as a whole or whether allowing your kids to indulge in media the Bible condemns as witchcraft is against its teachings? They're separate discussions. -

I am not going to say any ones beliefs are stupid. As i said in my other post there are more important things going on in the world then to worry about a made up story.

No, I wouldn't let my kid watch slasher films either and if I was Christian I wouldn't allow Hollywood to mesmermize them with stories about witchcraft. The Bible is very clear about it. I'm not Christian and I suspect you are not either. But if you believe the Bible is the word of god it clearly condemns it.
