In WW, the persicution of witches wasn't the work of Puritans,
religious fanatics, Crusaders, or other expressions that would
prejudice readers against Christianity.
JKR introduced the concept of Muggles very early in her works to
avoid religious discrimination.

infering that there are magical Christians, Jews, Budhists,
Zorastrians, etc.
But if you want to introduce something that may cause a dividing
reaction between readers ... what soccer team did Harry follow
