With respect, the basis of Christian belief is much less complicated
than that and can be summed up in two quotes from Jesus:
God so loved the world that He gave his only Son so that whoever
believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father
except through me.

Hans now (please put IMHO in front of every sentence):
Thank you Geoff. I agree absolutely with those two quotes. How do they
pertain to Harry Potter?
I hold to my theory (well, actually conviction) that Harry Potter is a new
road map to liberation. This road map takes us on a journey of
transformation through an alchemical process. The alchemy changes the human
being from a mortal, faulty, very limited human being, to an immortal,
perfect and unlimited Son of God.
I'm talking about recognition: I recognise the alchemy in Harry Potter from
my life-long study of alchemy. That's why JK Rowling said in an interview in
Canada that Harry Potter is about resurrection. It's about the resurrection
of the original divine human being asleep in the heart of every seeker!
There are two simple choices available:
EITHER you interpret the New Testament literally and see the manifestation
of the Christ as a one-time historical event
OR you see the New Testament as a road map to the liberation of the INNER
Christ.
And by the same token you can see Harry Potter:
EITHER as the journey of the Christian to become a good citizen,
OR you can see it as a road map to the liberation of the INNER Christ, this
time called Harry Potter.
It is up to every one to make their own choice. But let me once again quote
Angelus Silesius (Johannes Scheffler 1624-1677): "Though Christ a thousand
times in Bethlehem be born but not in thee, thou shalt be yet forlorn."
What is happening in the world today is a reflection of what is happening
inside the hearts and minds of the great collective of all human beings. The
world, friends, is very, very SICK, and humanity as a whole is responsible.
There is only one hope for humanity: the birth of the Christ in the hearts
of men. This is why Harry Potter is the most wonderful, the most effulgent,
the most intensely radiant present of hope and love that humanity has had
for centuries. It tells us, by means of hidden symbols, what happens when
the inner Christ is born. Yes, Geoff, the Inner Christ can say: "I am the
way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
Only when the inner Christ is born, only when Harry Potter is born in the
human heart, can we return to the Father.
We have two choices:
EITHER we believe the Son of God came 2000 years ago,
OR we believe God can send his Son into our heart the moment we open our
heart to him.
Each seeker can have God's only begotten Son living in their heart. How can
many people have ONE being in their hearts? Because in God's prefect
creation (in which we DO NOT live right now) there is no separation. Your
Inner Christ is my Inner Christ. There is only one Christ, but He can live
in everyone's heart. Indeed: "God so loved the world that He gave his only
Son so that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting
life." YES! Absolutely. If Harry Potter is born in our heart, he will lead
us to God, to perfection, to union with absolute Good. As you will see in
book 7, Harry will die, but will be reborn to everlasting life.
I know I'm a lonely voice in the wilderness, but I'll continue to announce
my recognition of Harry Potter as the way to liberation until I'm kicked out
of this group.
Warm regards to all,
Hans
