I do like trees and would be interested in advance wood working, yes.
I could think less about me if you would get a hobby and stop concentrating so hard on me.
And once again for you benefit, I wasn't correcting, just trying to dodge the thought police (i.e., you) about a mispelling, while still answering a post in a manner I felt necessary. See, you are as bad at trying to correct people's thoughts and developing a personal agenda against someone, as I am about spell check.
you really should stop hijacking threads with your infatuation with me, it is pathetic.

grow up....and leave the ego at the door.

wowser, what a zinger. you about got me with that mud.
I guess the most hypocritical thing (and most humorous to boot) I have seen on the BB has been YOUR personal attacks on me regarding my stance against someone else.
now, how about getting back to the topic and not wasting my time?
If you can curve your infatuation for just a day... Your best bet is to pray about it and seek some counsel. Best to ya!
Does anyone remember the Potter book burnings that took place when the books first came out? -
This coming from one who claims to be a teacher? The word is CURB, meaning to restrain. You are not really a teacher...admit it...you write speeches for President Bush, don't you? -

Enough already! -
**Moderator warning**
The thread will be steered back toward the original subject "Promoting Harry Potter" and posters will conduct themselves in a manner worthy of the Lord Jesus Christ or else the threadl be subject likewise to be closed

Curb - curve, my bad. I do the same with "their - there" when in a hurry. Thanks for the correction.
Back to Potter,
I remember a big stink at the public school here over having the books in the library at school. Big special meeting over and what not. It has been a continuing issue now for a time. -
I don't post much on these forums
Wow you have only been here since Jan 2007 ans already have almost 400 posts
and I have been a member here since 2004 and have not contributed to the forum nearly as much as you have.
I guess the mission field takes up way too much of my time to post here like I should:wavey: -
riiiiight.
harry potter. harry potter. harry potter. can we no longer focus? -
Yes, she's a fast reader. She broke a 25 year school record for vocabulary in 1st grade. Here I am a writer/editor and I can't read nearly as fast as she can. -
Npetreley: thank you...
and now no one even has to read the book... they get to know the answer and save whatever the book costs. thats a deal.
here is a stupid question. is harry potter a witch or a warlock? (its 1am, much more can't be expected...) -
I don't read Harry Potter books, but I was under the impression that a 'witch' was female and a 'warlock' was male...
-
Neither, Potter is a wizard I believe. Warlocks are associated with Dark Magic if they are referred to in the books at all. That is a specific question I can't remember the answer too. Hmmm, and I read the last book just this week. I think I'm right though.

In the series, magic is a talent/gift that certian people have (much like the powers the folks have in fantastic four or xmen or even the "force" in star wars). Magic itself is not good or evil - although folks who wield it can be good or evil. The "Dark Arts" do not come from a sinister side of magic, they are magic that can hurt or kill a person.
There are only a couple of actual evil people in the series - Voldemort being the main one - he is more of a hitler character than satanic - as neither God nor Satan are mentioned in the series, nor is the occult/seances etc.
as NPet has given up that Snape turns out to be a good guy (but very confilcted)- harry willingly lays down his life for his friends. Seems that when his mother sacrificed her life for his, part of voldemorts soul winds up in Harry, so the only way for voldemort to die is for harry to die. Harry does not put up a fight and when voldemort sends a killling spell at harry it evidently only kills the voldemort part of him.
INterestingly enough, there are some pretty good Christian allegories in this book, in fact perhaps more than are in Lord of the Rings and enogh that if a child reads the book a parent can talk about the differneces in this fable and the actual life of Christ
