I think the best point to be made is that THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS 
MAGIC AND WIZARDRY!  There is a wonderful place for those who are 
against Harry Potter and it is called REALITY.  If people choose to 
believe that Harry Potter books are evil because it will turn kids 
into devils or witches, then they are beyond the point of rational 
thinking and therefore cannot be convinced by rational people.

Adam who, try as he might, cannot fix a pair of glasses by 
saying "occulus repairo" and must go to Lens Crafters instead 
(although harbors a suspicion that Lens Crafters folks CAN fix the 
glasses with the spell)
