Wouldn't it have been cool if Harry Potter really *had* been a book about witchcraft and satanism?
MrRandom314159
Isn't that only in the Bible because it assumes the powers come from a devilish/demonic force?

God creates everything, God createswitchcraft, God creates humans, humans use witchcraft, humans go to gell. God is an ass

Well Protestants who believe in witchcraft believe witchcraft is a creation of the Devil. Because they seem to forget the Devil is not a god

Some people literally believe that and forbid their kids from reading HP. WTF

I have baptist friend who says magic is a sin. How the hell made-up thing could be a sin?!

It's actually a very Christian series of books.

I'd say they're better off not reading Rowling's bullshit but then again, the are then raised into religion...
PureOdio
I find it quite ironic that it is often these same people who claim that young children can't differentiate between reality and fantasy.

My mother was one of them. She even went to a Harry Potter book burning at the local mega church. Which is such a Slytherin thing to do.
TagaryenFangirl
A Slytherin wouldn’t go to a Harry Potter book burning, they’d be over the road burning bibles, “you burn mine, I burn yours, bitches”

Yup. "It encourages wizardry and witchcraft." I'm pretty sure I was still in gradeschool when I knew that those things are fictional.

You're smart. Loads of kids are waiting for their Hogwarts letters.

This wouldn't be a problem, but no somebody had to go fracture the Catholic Church with a shitpost in the 16th Century!

I didn't realize those Chick tracts were still being made after the 80s.

My faith in humanity dies a little every time some shit like this comes up.

It's also inaccurate. I don't think Tarot Cards or a Ouija board are ever mentioned. They do teach them how to use the crystal ball though

Someone literally quoted "Thou Shalt not suffer a witch to live" at my pagan friend the other day.

That means every chemist in the world would have a death mark.
RedWineAndSkyrim
That sounds like it could be a death threat. Your friend should report it to HR, and possibly the local police.

A sorceress shall be put to death. KJV is stright and to the point.

Interestingly, some historians think this is a mistranslation stemming from the King James version of the Bible. The original Hebrew (1/2)

text used a word that has undergone multiple translations, and may not have meant ‘witch’ in quite the same way. (2/2)

which witch? sandwich!

Or did they?

well, at least 2 of the dumbledores did, and an owl.

That misplaced apostrophe is actually fitting, considering your username.
