The real Magician

So there's all this hype about Harry Potter.  The bad ass, anti-Christian Paganist witch corrupting children and turning them to magic.  Evil is as evil does.

I may be wrong, but Harry hasn't forced teenage boys to kill other teenage boys and men and women and children in a foreign country. He hasn't lied to the free world about his intentions.  He hasn't used dogma to suppress people for thousands of years.

Excuse me when I accuse the bible belt, the politicians, the press and the conservatives for being the real magicians, the ones who practice black magic, turning people on people in the name of 'good'.

I don't read Potter books, but that's not really the point is it?  To say he's evil is shifting focus and blame from where it really lies.

    I think one of the most dangeous phrases out there is......\"In the Name of God\" People become apalled at what the religious or A man of God has ir is doing.



    Excuse me - That\'s NOT GOD\'S WILL - it\'s the choice of a failed human beaing, acting out of their own twisted sence of judgement.



    How do we know the difference? We may never - but God does.
