1 | On Harry Potter? | Bible general Archive 1 | EdB | 21297 | ||
Tim I really wish you had heard this woman speak, now I wish I had listened more. She was clear and articulate and was able to back up everything she said with fact. The woman that wrote Harry Potter had apparently admitted this is based on real witchcraft and her purpose was to give children a "new world view" of spiritually. That alone worries me. The author on TV then explained how the curses and incantations are authentic with some words changed. She raised the biggest question to my mind. What happens if a child goes to bed a night angry and begins to speak a curse he learned from Harry Potter on the person. In effect he could be construed to praying and asking for the power of darkness to intervene. They had a child behavior specialist on the program also and he agreed that there was real danger in this. He explained that many cases of children that are hard to handle the beginning of the problems can be traced back to such behavior. I too like Sci fi but this is far more than your run of the mill entertainment. This book, by the authors own admission, was written with a purpose and that I don’t believe is okay. I think this is far more dangerous than we would give it credit and this involves something God warned us to stay clear of. EdB |

Hi EdB, I saw the same program. I caught probably less than you, but I agree with what you are saying here. I believe the lady was sincere and born again, and not just a fanatical witch hunter. She was saying Harry Potter, tho fiction, is based on real witchcraft practiced by real witches. Parents and teachers like Harry Potter because it gets kids to read. The witches don't care about that, but are only concerned that their craft is presented accurately. The lady on the show said some witches were upset because the book had witches riding brooms with the straw end of the broom behind them, as most people think is correct, but in their actual ceremonies they “ride” around on brooms with the straw end in the front. Otherwise, most of the ceremonies, spells, etc, were "po-witchely" correct. I, personally, don’t know a lot about Harry Potter, but from what I have seen, It seems to be something satan would want to promote, because it portrays real witchcraft, sorcery, and spells as an innocent passion of a little boy. Just the way I see it now. I will research further. God bless, retxar |
