The idea is to not to do these things for it can influence you in bad ways. An example is for someone to listen to music that constantly curses. This could wind up with that person cursing more than usual. <BR/><BR/>In the case of Harry Potter, I don't see anything that would influence anyone in such a negative way.

This train of thoughts leads very fast through the notion that only pastors and elders are "strong enough" to read whatever the rest of humanity wrote and withstand the potential soul-tarnishing involved and ends up with papal infallibility. Which may be fine if you're a devout Catholic, but isn't if you are not.<BR/><BR/>I find it quite ironic that we are deemed strong enough to choose freely to be born again yet too weak to take Harry Potter for its entertainment value. Yet we were created with brains and a mind to do this kind of choices. Refusing to keep abreast of cultural and sub-cultural developments of our times makes it harder to root faith in our daily existence, IMO, and ultimately leads to sectarianism and isolation.Gwaendarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11736940983104193253noreply@blogger.com
