I don't know what Frtxzz was refering to, but my sisters and I were a Harry Potter fans until we realized that they were using real Latin, and sometimes real spells. We are Catholic, and Latin is the language of our Church. Books and movies like these give people misconceptions about how we use the Latin in our Mass. I think that we use it because it binds our Church together, though many different languages in the world are used to say the Mass, Latin is used in certain parts to unify our Church in language. It is also traditional, I believe. We stopped watching the series because we didn't like the spread of the misconceptions, and because we didn't like actual spells being said in our home, coming out of our computer speakers. Don't go after Frtxzz just because he didn't give details on why he believes it to be evil. He probably has his reasons, just as I do.    

Harry Potter has roots in Christianity! What do you believe that Narnia is satanic? Because what do you see in these books. A hero that works to take down evil. I could give you a list of books that are a lot worse than Harry Potter.

Meant to put that as a reply to Frtxzz's comment.

That is SO not true. If anything, it's the opposite. In these books, Harry, who, by the way, is a total christ-character, must work hard and practically give up his life to defeat Voldemort, who is the pure embodiment of evil. The Harry Potter series is entirely fictional, and of course it contains occult symbols, it's about wizards. Witchcraft and occult DO NOT EXIST, so I think you may be going a bit too far with your ideas. Also, how can it "scream satanistic worship" when there is no sort of religon or worship even MENTIONED, nor Satan. Anyway, isn't a major part of christianity being nice and forgiving? Harry Potter is just a made up story. You might not like it, but a lot of us do. So find something worth insulting to insult.

 This book screams satanic worship. Please do some research before you help spread this evil. Witchcraft and occult practices are not jokes, this book has way too many occult symbols to be coincidental.

I completly and wholeheartedly(sp?) agree with you!
