Do you think people who are Harry Potter fans are generally better
citizens, go to church, don't cheat on taxes, etc? Harry Potter was
stated to be directly associated with the types of behaviors the boy

Doddie here:
no not at all..
JKR stated Hogwarts was a multifaith school... so we cannot proclaim
Christianity alone--probably one of the major reasons why Hogwarts
is told from Harry's perspective
I would rather argue that those who read much, often are generally
better citizens...(in that they vote and write letters to the editor
often..)
It's not about HP...but, rather more about reading the characters
and the setting etc....
Doddie,
(who's glad that Harry snatched that eye out of Umbridges' door!)
