ania,
My family has never been in possesion of anything "Harry Potter".
I don't expect to convince anyone and am grateful that this forum exists to share opinions on this and other important matters.
Here is an excerpt I found of Harry Potter:
"Wormtail then drops this disembodied spirit into a cauldron he had boiling, and then began to chant the following ritualistic words, designed to give Voldemort a body again. ' Bone of the father, unknowingly given, you will renew your son!' Suddenly, the grave on which Harry was sitting cracked open, a fine trickle of bone dust rose into the air, and descended into the cauldron. Harry's dead father had just given his son some of his bone. '
Flesh of the servant -- u-unwillingly given -- you will -- revive your master.' Wormtail then takes a dagger and cut off his right arm, and dropped it into the cauldron.
' B-blood of the enemy -- forcibly taken -- you will -- resurrect your foe.' Wormtail then takes the dagger in his remaining hand and cuts a large gash in Harry's arm, causing a large stream of blood to run down the arm. Harry struggled, but was held too tightly by the ropes. Wormtail captured Harry's blood in a glass vial and poured it into the boiling cauldron."
If you or anyone else foresees these satanic images will one day be acted out in an Orthodox Church with responses of "oh how cute", and that your children reading about how body parts are cut off over a grave with satanic type prayers being read, souls are dropped into boiling pots, and the blood of a person is poured into a glass and used in a ritual to raise someone from the dead is "good clean fun" for impressionble children, I doubt any argument I could offer would convince you.
How can parents excuse themselves for letting their children be compromised in such ways?
I pray you have just been unaware of the reality of all this and that you will reconsider.
