I'm not joking, judging or criticizing anyone. I'm just posting plain facts.

But if you really want to know, my personal opinion on Harry Potter is this: I don't like the stories and the movies, I think they're shallow and badly written. I don't know if they're dangerous or promote witchcraft, though.

This is wrong. So wrong.
Vatican is dangerous, not Harry Potter.

I was never allowed to watch or read Harry Potter. Had very religous parents but I did read the first one is school (Shhhhh dont tell my parents) It was ok but not my cup of tea.

Thank heavens for that! Goodness gracious, how else would daft ducks with only two brain cells and little children understand the story?

The question, "Is Harry Potter dangerous?" is not a fact. This is what I was referring to when I asked if you were joking. How any intelligent, educated person of the 21st century (like yourself) could wonder such a thing simply baffles me. I'm not judging or criticizing either, I'm honestly at a loss to understand the question in the first place.

I'm assuming (based on your references to demons and exorcisms) that by 'dangerous' you mean that people exposed to the HP series may be prone to influence by evil supernatural entities, or more likely to attempt actually casting magical spells which might subject them to uncontrollable supernatural forces, or that the stories themselves have somehow summoned demons or the like to London. Is that about right?

I really don't care about the fact that some teenager claims to be trained as an exorcist, or that her father is struggling to make a living by selling multiple books about the subject and offering his dubious services at a price. I think that's just pathetic, and that's a fact.
