Random Anything - Take FOUR?!

Yes, both the books and the movies or cool Lego sets or merch you have plus conspiracy theories you about it! (conspricy isn't the right word but you get the point)

Many Christian families have problems with Harry Potter because J.K. Rowling took a bit too much inspiration from real-life attempts at wizardry and witchcraft. I hope you understand.

[Jayde_Eldersong]

I guess that's true, but it very clearly states that it's a fictional book, and if parents don't want their kids reading the book, then they'd have no interest in the topic, either.

[Ariella_Newheart]

Hey y'all how does it feel...

Hah, I don't feel anything since I already lost it two weeks ago, and even then it didn't bother me. You're too late, fiend.

(Just a head's up, if anyone wants to forego possible disappointment, don't look at anything that says "how does it feel" at the beginning of it.)

[Lilliana_Umbrellascope]

Just going to leave this here...

Harry Potter fans?

There was an article on Wikipedia that I found interesting about this. It was Religious Debates over the Harry Potter series. You guys should look it up. It talks about how Harry Potter is different from Narnia or LOTR because Narnia, the witch has a wand that turns people to stone, but she doens’t utter any spells. I haven’t seen the movies, but Gandalf in the books doesn’t speak any spells, he says things like, “I put a shutting spell on the door, but then it was retaliated with a terrible counter spell” so he doesn’t tell you it, but Harry Potter does say the spells which can mean you can say them out loud. And Harry Potter has links to astrology, clairvoyance, and numerology. Where was Narnia and LOTR don’t.

Harry Potter fans?

And Narnia and Lotr were written by Christisns.

(Not to mention LOTR has Christian themes)

Not to mention LOTR has Christian themes

AND NARNIA DOESN'T?

[Lilliana_Umbrellascope]

Well duh but that's obvious and I was talking about LOTR

[Hanna_Brassheart]

Lol
This is the book discussion topic, @Jayde_Eldersong:

What book are you reading?

We closed HP not because we don’t agree with it, nor because we were making a statement that HP is a banned topic on the forums, but because the fanbase here is too small to justify its own topic. Discussion of it can fit into our myriad general media topics. Thank you kindly.

[Levi_Orangeburst]

Well duh but that's obvious and I was talking about LOTR

Okiiii.

-taps head- I think my skull is thick enough to withstand that.

[Elizabeth_Newroad]

Maybe the baseball bat, but not Avalata....

[Levi_Orangeburst]

That... that's valid.

Well yea, but still, if you don't like it, just don't use that topic, it's pretty simple.

, but because the fanbase here is too small to justify its own topic. Discussion of it can fit into our myriad general media topics. Thank you kindly.

Okay, you do have a point there. So it would just go in the book topic, right?

[Logan_Brokenspark]

if you don't like it, just don't use that topic, it's pretty simple.

Like he said it's that simple. Also what about movies? Where can we talk of those?

it very clearly states that it's a fictional book

Like I said it's fiction, we like it you don't, so don't go on the topic

[Peregrine_Appleclock]

@Logan_Brokenspark

Okay. So. When I closed the topic, I left a message along with it. It's still there; you can go and read it for yourself. You will find that the main reason I closed it was not because we're banned from talking about Harry Potter... because we're not.

The main reason was because we wanted to keep the majority of book discussions to one topic: the main book topic. People weren't really using the Harry Potter topic a whole lot anyways. So you can still talk about Harry Potter; it'll just have to be in the main book topic for now!

[Jones_Elderview]

I'd say talk about it with caution though, as stated by Lilliana:

NOT Talk ALL YOU WANT V!

With Christian beliefs it can get kinda weird, sometimes

Though I don't think this accurate, as because we're a Christian community, it shouldn't get out of hand.

[Logan_Brokenspark]

I get the book topic, but what about movies and theories about stuff and legos or what not?

[Peregrine_Appleclock]

I mean........

Movies! 🚨May contain spoilers🚨

LEGO topic
