Our town's most outspoken vicar is once again throwing his toys out of the pram !
The Rev. Kevin Logan is quoted in this week's Observer as saying that Harry Potter books encourage kids "to be curious in an area that God forbids " namely the occult and paganism.
What utter baloney.
Logan also goes on to say " is it worth telling young people about our real saviour, Jesus Christ, while we run the risk of losing their souls to witchcraft because of stories like these ?"
He goes on... " I find it hard to understand how 21st century man with all his technology seems to be turning towards superstition. "

I am sorry but what is going on in his head ?
The Bible is a great book , no doubt about that, but to try to tell us that our kids will grow up to be more interested in the occult because they have read a Harry Potter book and not the Bible is quite frankly ludicrous.
So , good people of Accyweb; have any of you noticed your kids dabbling in the occult since reading the last Harry Potter book?
Discuss.....
