Particularly amusing on this stupid site are the "S-shaped sign of
Satan on Harrys forehead" and this charming excerpt, which quotes JKR:
"The author also uses occult terms in her thinking. Look at this new
age phrase. "I have a very visual imagination. I see it, then I try
to describe what is in my mind's eye," This minds eye concept is the
heart of the new age movement."
Seriously, though, it is really disturbing that these sort of
fascists exist. Yes, they are fascists, IMHO. They not only believe
that their way of life is right and everyone elses is wrong, but they
want to dictate to the rest of us how to live. They have a lot in
common with Voldemort, in fact.
