Dobson renounces Harry Potter

Link

    The reason the ministry leader is against the material is obvious given the presence of magical characters (witches, wizards, ghosts, goblins, werewolves, poltergeists and so on) in the Harry Potter stories.
I have never read Harry Potter; however I like DragonLance novels and they have wizards, ghosts, goblins, ect... so his criticism of Harry Potter also effects DL.

    Instead of “Harry Potter,” Colson recommends parents to introduce other fantasy books such as “The Chronicles of Narnia” and “The Lord of the Rings,” because they have more of a Christian framework.
Um... what about Gandolph? He's a wizard. And Soleyman, the evil wizard? Seems more like someone's wanting a double standard.

Well Raistlin is my favorite fictional character of all time so I'm going to have to disagree and continue to read my Dragonlance novels.
