Dear Christian, This is the most evil thing I have laid my eyes on in 10 years . . . and no one seems to understand its threat.
The
Harry Potter books are THE NUMBER ONE selling children's books in Barnes &
Noble or Waldenbooks storefront.
Go
to Amazon.com and read the reviews. Hear the touting by educators and even
Christian teachers about how "It's great to see the youth so eagerly
embracing the reading experience!"
Harry
Potter is the creation of a former UK English teacher who promotes witchcraft
and Satanism. Harry is a 13 year old 'wizard.'
Her
creation openly blasphemes Jesus and God and promotes sorcery, seeking revenge
upon anyone who upsets them by giving you examples (even the sources with
authors and titles) of spells, rituals, and demonic powers.
I
think the problem is that parents have not reviewed the material. The name seems
harmless enough . . . Harry Potter. But that is where it all ends. Let me give
you a few quotes from some of the influenced readers themselves:
"The
Harry Potter books are cool, 'cause they teach you all about magic and how you
can use it to control people and get revenge on your enemies" said
Hartland, WI, 10 year old Craig Nowell, a recent convert to the New Satanic
Order Of The Black Circle. "I want to learn the Cruciatus Curse, to make my
muggle science teacher suffer for giving me a D." (A 'muggle' is an
unbeliever of magic.)
Or
how about the REALLY young and innocent impressionable mind of a 6 year old when
asked about her favorite character: 6 year old Jessica Lehman of Easley, SC.
"Jesus died because He was weak and stupid."
And
here is dear Ashley, a 9 year old, the typical average age reader of Harry
Potter: "I used to believe in what they taught us at Sunday School,"
said Ashley, conjuring up an ancient spell to summon Cerebus, the three-headed
hound of hell. "But the Harry Potter books showed me that magic is real,
something I can learn and use right now, and that the Bible is nothing but
Boring lies."
DOES
THIS GET YOUR ATTENTION?
If
not, how about a quote from High Priest of Satanism: "Harry is an absolute
god send to our cause," said High Priest Egan of the First Church Of Satan
in Salem, MA. "An organization like ours thrives on new blood (no pun
intended) and we've had more applicants than we can handle lately. And, of
course, practically all of them are virgins, which is gravy."
(Since
1995, open applicants to Satan worship has increased from around 100,000 to now
. . . 20 MILLION children and young adults!)
It
makes me physically ill, people!
But,
I think I can offer you an explanation of why this is happening.
Children
have been bombarded with action, adventure, thrills and scares to the point
Hollywood can produce nothing new to give them the next 'high.' Parents have
neglected to see what their children are reading and doing, and simply seem
satisfied that 'Little Johnny is interested in reading.'
AND
. . . educators and the NEA are PUSHING this with NO WARNING as to the effects
or the contents.
Still
not convinced? I will leave you with something to let you make up your own mind.
And finally, a quote from the author herself, J. K. Rowling, describing the
objections of Christian reviewers to her writings:
"I
thinkit's absolute rubbish to protest children's books on the grounds that they
are luring children to Satan," Rowling told a London Times reporter in a
July 17 interview. "People should be praising them for that! These books
guide children to an understanding that the weak, idiotic Son Of God is a living
hoax who will be humiliated when the rain of fire comes ... while we, his
faithful servants, laugh and cavort in victory."
My
hope is that you will see fit to become involved in getting the word out about
this garbage. Please FWD to every pastor, teacher, and parent you know. This
author has now published FOUR BOOKS in less than 2 years of this 'encyclopedia
of Satanism' and is surely going to write more. I also ask all Christians to
please pray for this lost woman's soul.
Pray
also for the Holy Spirit to work in the young minds of those who are reading
this garbage that they may be delivered from its harm.
