"J.K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter series, is a witch an in league with Lucifer himself." - Some Insane Lunatic Who I Believe to Be In League With Lucifer Himself

Let us just have a little discussion here about how absolutely insane and terrifying it as that people actually think that Harry Potter is a book about evil.
The title of this blog was a quote taken from the website www.godhatesgoths.com/godhatesharrypotter (the official site for parents against goths, in case you were wondering). The author goes on to say that J.K. Rowling is "straight from the pits of Hell," that the Harry Potter books are "Satanic," and that it encourages the readers to work with "actual demon spirits."
Take a step back and reevaluate your life, please.
Let's break this down really fast here. One of their arguments is that names such as Hedwig, Cliodna, Nicholas Flamel, and Agrippa are names of actual witches and wizards. Well, gee, I wonder why this book about witches and wizards uses that names of actual wizards and wizards. Oh, maybe it's because the books are about witches and wizards.
This next argument might just be my favorite, because it is so absurd that is makes me laugh until I cry. This article states, AND I QUOTE THAT "DUMBLEDORE WAS A FAGGOT PEDOPHILE, AND WAS GROOMING HARRY POTTER FOR HOMOSEXUAL SEX."
I, in the most literal sense of the phrase, can not even.
Just reading articles like this, and I assure you that there are many of them, makes my blood absolutely boil. Why would people accuse a simple book about love, friendship, family, and the defeat of evil as being evil itself. Yes, there is evil in the Harry Potter series. I can think of infinite things that Voldemort did that were unforgivable. But the only people that were following Voldemort were the people that Harry and his friends were working hard to defeat. Anyone's argument is invalid. Harry Potter is not a book about evil. It is a book about overcoming evil.
And also, I cannot think of one single time that Dumbledore was 'grooming' Harry for homosexual sex. "Hey, Harry, can you please help me defeat the most evil wizard of this time? Yeah, and also, while you're at it, take your pants off." No. That never one happened.
So I don't rant on and on for hours, I will end this post here. I promise that I will write more about this topic.
Until next time Potterheads!

UPDATE: If you click 'Enter this Site as a Goth' on the homepage of www.godhatesgoths.com, the welcome letter is started as "Dear Loser." So I think that all credibility if pretty much wiped off of this site's map.

UPDATE AGAIN: This site is also associated with 'God Hate Retards' and 'God Hates Women' and all four of the sites are run by a Reverend, so this is just fantastic.

Hello, fellow Potterheads! 
Today I would love to talk about the score in the Harry Potter movies. I know I have published a post about this topic before, but I can not stress enough to you all how much the score to Harry Potter is one of the most flawless things going on in my life right now.
For me, my Harry Potter obsession has always come in waves. Sometimes I'll think, 'wow, how was I so addicted to a series,' or, 'oh my god, I was one of those people." then the next day I' reading all the books and playing the music on repeat while watching the movies and drinking tea out of my /harry Potter mug. And the happiness that I get on those overly obsessed Potterhead days outweighs the day filled with the embarrassment that I get when I think about how obsessed I am. I am prous to be a Harry Potter fangirl, and there is nothing I can do about it.
I am going through one of my overobsessed fangirl waves at the moment (I read the first book last night within two hours) and I am currently listening to the soundtrack of the first movie on repeat. And, let's be honest here, when you are as obsessed with something as I am with Harry Potter, you can get pretty emotional. For instance, whenever I hear Leaving Hogwarts I bawl my little eyes out. But when I hear Hedwig's Theme, my sad tears suddenly turn into happy tears. The music from Harry Potter can flip my attitude upside down with one note. Props to you, John Williams. 
I can't be the only person on the planet that thinks this way about the Harry Potter scores. When you can envision a scene from the movies or books from just hearing the song that was played in the background, you know that your love (obsession) with that series is powerful. And that you've watched the movies, read the books, and listened to the music far to many times to still be considered a mentally healthy person. So I invite you all to, if you haven't done so recently or ever, grab one of the Harry Potter books, listen to one of the Harry Potter scores scores, and drink some really good tea out of your best Harry Potter mug, and wallow in all that is the happiness of our Harry Potter universe.
Until next time!
