   I forgot that there are some Christians that believe this whole thing   
   promotes witchcraft until I got in a debate on Facebook over whether or   
   not kids should see the new movie. My initial response was that I was   
   taking my teenagers, but it was too violent for my younger ones. It   
   quickly turned into me trying to defend a series I find to teach   
   Christian themes against people attacking it that had neither read the   
   books, nor even seen the movies.   
      
   Fortunately, for most of the Christian people I am around in real life,   
   the question of whether children should get involved with Harry Potter   
   has a lot more to do with violence and going against authority and rules   
   than witchcraft and Satanism.
