Catholic Bishops' Conference Says Harry's OK

[Steve]

That's right the Catholic Initiative for Enlightened Movie
Appreciation a branch of the Catholic Bishops's Conference of the
Philipines has endorsed the latest Harry Potter movie.

Excerpts:

"In a surprising move, the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the
Philippines (CBCP) sang the praises of the latest installment in the
seven-part "Harry Potter" series, despite its depiction of witchcraft
and wizardry, which are against the doctrines of the Church.

"The Catholic Initiative for Enlightened Movie Appreciation (Cinema),
an arm of the CBCP Office on Women, has recommended the movie "Harry
Potter and the Goblet of Fire" for general viewing by the entire
family after giving it an "acceptable to wholesome" moral assessment
rating and an "above average" technical evaluation.

"Complementing the extensive fantasy adventures and magical sceneries
are the intensive insights on friendship, courage, and selflessness,"
Cinema said in its review of the film, which earlier drew criticism
from the Catholic Church because of the practice of witchcraft and
magic depicted in the series."
