Title edited to be nice to those who may think this is a discussion topic.
BTW, it's customary to ROT13 spoilers so that people can't easily read them...that and get your BBCode right :)

If you find this funny, you're a nerd.
If neither of the above apply, you are normal. Congratulations.

Harry Potter returns to Hogwart's, only to discover that the Catholic Church has permanently closed the school, since the new Pope Joseph Ratzinger has proclaimed that the Harry Potter books are evil because they portray magic and witchcraft in a positive light. The church has replaced Hogwart's with an "occult recovery center" to council the poor misguided youths who had been dabbling in dangerous magic.
Distraught, Harry grabs his wand and casts a spell, causing the entire occult center to immediately burn to the ground, killing everyone inside.

No, you want to hear crazy...
Okay, when the fifth book was released, I went with a friend to the release party at Borders. We even dressed up (agh! I saw it as an opportunity to cosplay!!! >_<!!!). So Borders' parking lot was full up by the time we got there, so we took my friend's mom's advice and parked over in the back of the mall lot and walked across the street to Borders. We had a good time (good time = stood in line for-fucking-ever), and, clutching our Order of the Phoenix books, we headed back across the street to hop in the car and call it a night.
The time was 1:14, according to the lit sign in the mall parking lot as we passed. But what did we find when we got to my parking spot? NO CAR. The only thing left of what my car had been were two skid marks. We ran out into the parking lot and waved down one of the mall security vehicles that circle the mall nightly. They'd towed my car away, and we were stranded in the mall parking lot at a quarter after one in the morning.
Alright, fast forward a little. I'm house-sitting one week for one of my neighbors, and I have the same girl I was with for the Harry Potter fiasco over so we can go swimming in the pond behind their house. At one point I dive into the pond and get water in my ear (which, if this has never happened to you, hurts like hell). We go back to my house and I call up my grandma to find out how I can get the water out of my ear so it doesn't hurt anymore. I ask her about how to take care of my ear, but she completely ignores me.
"So I heard your car got towed last week."
"Yeah, Allie and I parked it in the mall's lot and apparently they tow after 1:00."
"Why were you out that late?"
"Because we went over to get the new Harry Potter book."
And that's when all good hell broke loose. I was stuck with her on the phone for a good half hour after that while she lectured me about how Harry Potter is of the devil and about how those books turn children toward witchcraft and evil things, etc., etc., blah, blah....
I finally get off the phone with her. The next day, I recieve religious literature in the mail from her about how Harry Potter is tainting the minds of children. Mail like this comes every day for almost two weeks before it finally stops. To this day, I don't know if the mail stopped because she thought she got the message across, of it's because my parents finally stepped in and made her stop harrassing me. o_o

No more eggs! 
An actual signature will come soon, I suppose.

Ugh that kind of thing makes me want to throw up!
If someone tells you that 'magic' in fantasy fiction is evil, please explain to them that two of the greatest fantasy writers of all time, CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien, were both Christian. In fact, CS Lewis's Narnia series is essentially entirely a Christian allegory.
People have to bend over backwards to justify criticizing Harry Potter without criticizing Lewis and Tolkien as well. For example, from http://www.lifesite.net/features/harryp ... otter.html

Does that seem as ridculous to everyone else as it does to me?In his great fantasy epic, The Lord of the Rings, Tolkien also portrays magic as deception. Supernatural powers that do not rightly belong to man are repeatedly shown as having a corrupting influence on man. While it is true that Gandalf, one of the central characters, is called a "wizard" throughout, he is not in fact a classical sorcerer. Tolkien maintains that Gandalf is rather a kind of moral guardian, similar to guardian angels but more incarnate. (Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien, edited by Humphrey Carpenter and Christopher Tolkien, Boston, Houghton Mifflin, 1981) In letters 155, 156 and 228 he explains his depiction of matter and spirit, and the distinction between good magic and evil magic. In essence Tolkien's "good magic" is not in fact what we think of as magic in the real world. Gandalf's task is primarily to advise, instruct, and arouse to resistance the minds and hearts of those threatened by Sauron, the Dark Lord of this saga.
