Q&A Home > H > Harry Potter

How could the Coptic Church people conclude that Harry Potter is bad without having read the books? The movies show a very small portion of the books themselves.

You do not need to read a book about sorcery and witchcraft to decide if it is good or bad. These are condemned in the Holy Bible. Christian parents want to bring up their children in the love of God and in obedience of His commandments. Harry Potter books make witchcraft sound both safe and responsible which is against the teachings of the Holy Bible. This is not only a Coptic Church opinion but the opinion of a lot of concerned Christians around the world who share the same view regarding these books. Many sites on the internet discuss this view and warn parents against these books http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2000/012/34.113.html
