Harry Potter and the Prisonners of Ignorance

Okay, well now they're burning Harry Potter books in Florida for encouraging children to read, or worship the devil, or whatever. It's amazing to me that the sort of people who want to burn books can actually muster the brain-juice required to light a match and not catch themselves on fire. But, we'll see if they can swing it. In the article linked, some guy claims that teenagers today are increasingly faced with paganism which is apparently really "cool" with teenagers. Yep, nothing cooler amongst teenagers than non-Christian religions that remind them of both dirty hippies and the Amish. I'm surprised that P.Diddy hasn't got a line of pagan loose skirts out by now.

What's weird too is that these people are burning books that they think encourage "occult thinking", but isn't there something a bit.... mmmm... occultish about massive fire cleansing rituals?
