new item of news, since it dates back over two years, when he was 
still a cardinal.  According to the article, he was re-acting to a 
book "Harry Potter - Good or Bad" written by the conservative 
sociologist Gabriele Kuby.  As you say, he has probably got more 
important things to worry about now, but it is a bit surprising in 
view of the fact that John Paul II praised JKR for living her life 
like a Christian.  


Tonks:

I could not follow the link either. But it doesn't matter, since 
that article was 2 years ago. Since then the church has investigated 
the books and said that they were OK. And if Pope Benedict XVI is 
the theologian that we are told that he is, he will be able to see 
this as well. I am not worried. The HP books are Christian 
literature in the style of Lewis and Tolkien.  If we can see it 
plainly, I am sure that a learned theologian like Pope Benedict XVI 
will be able to see it as well. I am not worried.
