Harry Potter Books Spark Rise in Satanism Among Children

freetheweed · 03-20-2003, 12:55 AM

I recieved this in my e-mail today. My comments are in bold

Dear Christian, This is the most evil thing I have laid my eyes on in 10 years . . . and no one seems to understand its threat.

Im not a christain, and i dont give a **** about what you think is evil

The Harry Potter books are THE NUMBER ONE selling children's books in Barnes & Noble or Waldenbooks storefront.

Wasint that a fad?

Go to Amazon.com and read the reviews. Hear the touting by educators and even Christian teachers about how "It's great to see the youth so eagerly embracing the reading experience!"

good for them.

Harry Potter is the creation of a former UK English teacher who promotes witchcraft and Satanism. Harry is a 13 year old 'wizard.'

and you know this by????

Her creation openly blasphemes Jesus and God and promotes sorcery, seeking revenge upon anyone who upsets them by giving you examples (even the sources with authors and titles) of spells, rituals, and demonic powers.

My dear sweet lord...

I think the problem is that parents have not reviewed the material. The name seems harmless enough . . . Harry Potter. But that is where it all ends. Let me give you a few quotes from some of the influenced readers themselves:

hope you got sources...

The Harry Potter books are cool, 'cause they teach you all about magic and how you can use it to control people and get revenge on your enemies" said Hartland, WI, 10 year old Craig Nowell, a recent convert to the New Satanic Order Of The Black Circle. "I want to learn the Cruciatus Curse, to make my muggle science teacher suffer for giving me a D." (A 'muggle' is an unbeliever of magic.)

Hmmm.. intresting. New Satanic Order Of The Black Circle? Even I never heard of that! hey, where the source? LIAR!

Or how about the REALLY young and innocent impressionable mind of a 6 year old when asked about her favorite character: 6 year old Jessica Lehman of Easley, SC. "Jesus died because He was weak and stupid."

Oh my god! THE DEVIL IS IN HER! BURN THE WITCH!

And here is dear Ashley, a 9 year old, the typical average age reader of Harry Potter: "I used to believe in what they taught us at Sunday School," said Ashley, conjuring up an ancient spell to summon Cerebus, the three-headed hound of hell. "But the Harry Potter books showed me that magic is real, something I can learn and use right now, and that the Bible is nothing but Boring lies."

thier starting to learn the truth younger and younger now...

DOES THIS GET YOUR ATTENTION?

nope

If not, how about a quote from High Priest of Satanism: "Harry is an absolute god send to our cause," said High Priest Egan of the First Church Of Satan in Salem, MA. "An organization like ours thrives on new blood (no pun intended) and we've had more applicants than we can handle lately. And, of course, practically all of them are virgins, which is gravy."

you REALLY need to learn more about this religon that you are talking about. Thankfully, i happen to be a LaVain Satanist. First, the First Church of Satan does not worshipp the devil as christain people worship god, they are more humanisim trhan anything. I may make a post sometime that will explain this in greater detail. Second, there is no "High Priest Egan". All Priest use thier real name. The High Priest's real name is David.

Since 1995, open applicants to Satan worship has increased from around 100,000 to now . . . 20 MILLION children and young adults!)

not even close. The number is around 500,00o.

It makes me physically ill, people!

thats because your so full of **** your eyes are brown.

But, I think I can offer you an explanation of why this is happening.

Preach on my lord!

Children have been bombarded with action, adventure, thrills and scares to the point Hollywood can produce nothing new to give them the next 'high.' Parents have neglected to see what their children are reading and doing, and simply seem satisfied that 'Little Johnny is interested in reading.'

Hey, have little Jhonny to to the crackhouse you go to every night if he wants to get high. Wheres this explanation?

AND . . . educators and the NEA are PUSHING this with NO WARNING as to the effects or the contents.

eh?

Still not convinced?

nope

I will leave you with something to let you make up your own mind. And finally, a quote from the author herself, J. K. Rowling, describing the objections of Christian reviewers to her writings:

I bet 5 bucks theres no source

"I thinkit's absolute rubbish to protest children's books on the grounds that they are luring children to Satan," Rowling told a London Times reporter in a July 17 interview. "People should be praising them for that! These books guide children to an understanding that the weak, idiotic Son Of God is a living hoax who will be humiliated when the rain of fire comes ... while we, his faithful servants, laugh and cavort in victory."

thats not a source. i win, now, give me my money!

My hope is that you will see fit to become involved in getting the word out about this garbage. Please FWD to every pastor, teacher, and parent you know. This author has now published FOUR BOOKS in less than 2 years of this 'encyclopedia of Satanism' and is surely going to write more. I also ask all Christians to please pray for this lost woman's soul.

im not forwarding this to anyone, im deleting it after i stop laughing.

Pray also for the Holy Spirit to work in the young minds of those who are reading this garbage that they may be delivered from its harm.

No.

Lastly, pray for all parents to grow closer to their children, and That a bond of sharing thoughts and spiritual intimacy will grow between them.

Damn skitzoid's allways seem to get my email address.....

you are obviously too dense to realize that the email you recieved was a joke, not a real letter sent out by some fanatical christian.

Forgoledge · 03-20-2003, 01:16 AM

well put zongmaster.

I just... dont know what to say to the poster... uh, smoke less? or more? ugh.

heh, wonder what Rev. Judas will have to say about this thread lol

beats · 03-20-2003, 04:18 AM

I am a christian, I hate harry potter, but now because he's evil, frankly I don't care

He just annoys me like a tick in a storm cellar! And he looks like me a bit, and it's annoying.

Some christians go too far into things, like taking family guy off the air, that saddened me

This lady's obviously nuts

ResQBen · 03-20-2003, 04:40 AM

zongmaster is right, its a joke.

WeedMonster · 03-20-2003, 04:49 AM

im a christian

imported_SaltWrench · 03-20-2003, 05:19 AM

Why was Family Guy takin off the air? Granted I have all the episodes downloaded, but I miss that show.

noskillz · 03-20-2003, 05:21 AM

quit calling this guy dence. beleive me, there are a lot of christians out there that act crazy about this type of sh!t. the is no reason to believe that this isn't true. a lot of christians still believe that pagens worship the devil.

quit calling this guy dence, its unneeded bashing

Zero · 03-20-2003, 05:48 AM

Yea I agree with silent bob, there are lots of fanatical christians out there that are well, just nuts, I've met some of them. This could have been a joke, or it may not have been, no need for name calling really..
