That bit about S as a symbol of Satanism is reminiscent of "If the 
King's English was good enough for Jesus, it's good enough for me!" 
(I could go find the etymologic roots of "Satan" -- certainly not 
originally in English or in any language using the Roman alphabet -- 
but that *would* be OT).

It is clear from the siet that its author has not actually read the 
HP books. I know there are some people who have read the books and 
still disapprove of them on religious grounds, but have noticed that 
those people tend to sound a lot less hysterical and a lot more 
logical (they also tend not to advocate keeping the books away from 
*other* people's children).

I have found it interesting to see the range of obsessed Harry-ites 
posting here, from pagan to evangelical Christian. I say again, it is 
the mark of a good writer to speak to a range of readers and let each 
one see a slightly different, but still beautiful, color from the 
prism.
