Just reading about the food at the party made my stomach flip.
 
It's the same with Pokemon, it's an enemy fuelled scheme. Harry Potter is based on witchcraft, it was banned in our school. Thankfully the parent teachers association in conjunction with the school were unanimous in agreement that it had no place in the christian ethos.

Oh boy! Another ruling based on emotions, not knowledge.

I'd definitely homeschool if we ever had kids. What is the difference between Christian schools and public schools?

That's a good question, I don't know. I went to public school so I never had experienced Christian school. I guess they probably are all different . Most of the private schools around here are Catholic. We have a few regular I guess Protestant Christian schools.

The public schools really are hammering down on the separation of church and state now. But as far as anything else I don't know.

I agree. Even at the Christian bookstore there are books claiming to be from Christian writers but they have witchcraft and sorcery in them.

The Bible has Witchcraft and sorcery in it as well as some other very morally dubious episodes which if followed would end us all up in prison. Does that mean we should stop reading it?

I finally watched a HP movie after all the Christians up in arms about it, I quite enjoyed it. So I watched the rest of them, though they got darker as the series went on, but I mostly enjoyed them...surprisingly.
 
I read all the books and watched all the movies. I don't see what some folks were so upset about. No doubt many folks were, but they were probably just the type that look for something to fight against, and Harry James Potter got caught in the crosshairs.

The Bible warns us that it is an abomination to God. Nobody in the Bible practiced Witchcraft and sorcery without having serious consequences...
