No.Limberger responds:
No. What I am saying is that references to religion, either directly or
indirectly, in Harry
Potter are few and far between.  I am also saying that any witch or wizard
can have
any personal religious beliefs that they choose, or none at all, just like
anyone else.

I don't believe that JK Rowling intended religion to play a major role in
Harry Potter. This
automatically makes the books more accessible to more people regardless of
personal religious beliefs.
