The obligatory Harry Potter post

Well, today is the big day. The last Harry Potter book will be released at midnight. I can't say that I'm excited. I did not like the last book and I'm in no great hurry to read this one. If I had young kids I wouldn't let them read HP, never mind the witchcraft for a minute-- there is an incredible amount of death, pain and violence in Harry's world and I'm not sure that's good for the little ones.

Back to the witchcraft, one thing that really caught my attention is that the world's leading exorcists are having a convention in Mexico (pretty good place if you're a fighter of dark forces) and they don't like the HP series at all. Apparently, neither does the pope. I think I'll defer to the priests who deal daily with the wickedness and subtle snares of the devil on this issue.
