Despite what you've heard, Christian leaders like the children's books. Just look at the media reports about how Christian parents around the country are trying to get the book banned from libraries and schools. I knew this was coming. If children are excited about a book, it must be suspect.
Hostility is often high.
It's just not true. In fact, as far as I can tell, while no major Christian leader has come out to condemn J.K. Rowling's series, many have given it the thumbs-up. Not bad lessons in a self-centered world. The spiritual fault of Harry Potter is not so much that Rowling is playing to dark supernatural powers, but that she doesn't acknowledge any supernatural powers at all. These stories are not fueled by witchcraft , but by secularism .
