Doddie here:

You don’t have to have interest in religion…some here have it, some don’t…some are Christian, some are Jewish, some Mormon, some Muslim..no one wants to get into a comparative religion debate here…(believe you me, my posts have been chastized more for their grammar and the appropriate posting method before language came into play…but this is an international board with a not so international moderatiion…

Therefore continue posting your view…do not stop a story for story’s sake still hold’s true to me.

There are always subliminal meanings…especially for fairy tales(perhaps this is why DD left Hermione said book) and childrens stories(of which the Potter series is said to be one)…and even adult stories(which I think the LOR was supposed to be one)…no one religion stands alone..they all began somewhere citing principles that could have been believed in..and morales that have been held true…

I will not comment on the economics of the potter series (which IMHO strike harder than anything JKR ever wrote); just that you keep your view on the widest lens possible and if you disagree, please post why…we live in a world of multiple religions, all of which were founded upon common ground.
