Vatican Gives Blessing to Potter

bb_baptist · Feb 4, 2003

AP) - The Vatican is giving two thumbs up to the Harry Potter series. The good vs. evil plot lines of the best-selling books are imbued with Christian morals, the Rev. Don Peter Fleetwood told a Vatican news conference Monday. "I don't see any, any problems in the Harry Potter series," Fleetwood said.

How can the Catholic church see anything wrong with the occult when they practice it themselves? It is at the core of their religion!

For some Christian commentaries on the Harry Potter garbage, however, here:

Glad to hear it. I was questioning the movies and books, but if the Pope thinks it's OK, then . .

When are you going to run out and buy the series? I didn't realize 'movie critic' was among the Pope's duties.
