Thanks for that post Peg.  We talk so much about JKR's magic (and it's an
aweful lot of fun, too!), but the stories aren't really about magic.  If
they were, I wouldn't be writing emails about them.

They're about people.  The force behind JKR's plot isn't the magic; it's
values like loyalty, bravery, friendship and honesty that give the stories
their drive.  The creativity and humor are phenomenal of course, but I don't
think they're at the heart of the way JKR sees the world.

I think that's something relgious right types would realize, if they'd
bother to read the books.

Baaaaaa!
