Okay who did not see this coming. I sure did. It is really sad when we live in a day and age where people are still so terrified of diversity. These people are hiding behind religion. Its fear that keeps them hiding.
Calling JK Rowling "spawn of the Devil" certainly doesnt seem to be very Christian/religious to me. And people actually think she did this as some kind of trick.
It is times like these I am actually ashamed to live in the Bible Belt. It is embarassing for the rest of the world to be able to look at this part of such a seemingly "progressive" country and see how backwards everything is that goes on around here. Its a childrens book people!!
Children are not going to read the book and pick up all of the adult innuendos. A child does not even know what homosexuality is. And there is nothing in the book outwardly homosexual about Dumbledore. The adults reading the book should have already made an educated opinion on homosexuality and I dont think a book based entirely in fantasy is going to do much to change that opinion.
Happy Halloween JK Rowling...please say hey to the devil for me...
