Jayne just de lurking to say I am a commited Christian, but the reason
I read Harry Potter was that it was a great story. Would not have
worried if there were no religous inferences in it as It did not make
any real difference to the story IMHO

Lynda:

Another Christian here to  say that when I started reading the series I had
no idea whether or not Rowling was a Christian. I started reading them
because I was looking for a good story. It wasn't long before I saw themes
that can be seen as Christian, though. A couple of my more. . .ah. .
.fundamentalist friends had "the talk" with me, seeing me wander around with
my  copies of HP. I listened politely, thanked them, and then told them my
reasons for continuing to read them. I do the same with them with my Harry
Dresden books or any number of other fantasy/thriller books.
