Question

Why do (some) christians have such a problem with Harry Potter?

At the end of the day it just happens to be an entertaining children's book and fiction at that. All children should be allowed to have an imagination and most know that Harry Potter isn't real. I don't see why they rave on about it so much. It's harmless.

Opinions?

Answer 1

Witches themselves admit that the phenomenon of Harry Potter has caused an increased interest in Wicca.  Note those are members of the Wicca organization saying that, NOT a "Christian's opinion."
