contrary -- that the series is actually deeply rooted with Christian meaning.

Geoff:
Welcome (from one of the Christian apologists on the group).

This is John Granger's book if I remember correctly. I haven't read it but may I also 
recommend "The Gospel according to Harry Potter" by Connie Neal (Westminster John Knox 
Press 2002).
