Just an interesting tidbit; the number 40, when used in a biblical context, is hooey. The original Hebrew that was used wherever you see "fourty" in a translation basically meant "a whole bunch," or "we stopped counting after a while." So we only "know" that in the biblical flood the rain lasted a while longer than a month, not that it went on for precisely 960 hours.

Don't forget children - people with green eyes are evil!

What gets me, is if Joanne Rowling is evil because she knows so much about witchcraft, what's the excuse the author of this site gives?

Maybe, but Lovecraft gets amazingly little flak compared to Harry Potter novels.

LOL.

That reminds me of the time Ned Flanders was reading "his" version of the _Harry Potter_ series to Rod and Todd.

Ned: "...And then, Harry Porter and all his sorceror friends went straight to hell!"

Rod and Todd: "YAY!!!!!"

Fundies don't care what Catholics think. They're heathens. Jack Chick wrote a whole big schpiel about it, saying that Catholics worship the saints and the Virgin Mary more than they do Jesus. As evidence, they say that you say the Hail Mary more times when praying a Rosary than you say the Our Father. ::Shrugs:: Which can be misconstrued into some kind of truth. It's certainly not the MOST illogical claim that Chick has made, (no, Muhammed... Allah does NOT love you. Only God loves you!) but it's up there.

And that remains true for a lot of fundies. Generally speaking, they align themselves with non-Catholic sects of Christianity. In other words, they could give a shit less what the Pope has to say.
I find that sad. Am I the only Protestant still willing to become Catholic when they reform to the point where they will be on the right track again? Though that won't happen, I still hope.

I loved it on that site when they refered to hagrid as a witch. :D

Bye the way, on Capalert, I think this is hilarious
The matters incorporated into Offense to God, including issues of counterfeiting and mockery of the Scriptures, were unfortunately quite serious. Among other issues, the script presented a claim of Anakin being a virgin birth thus equating him with Jesus, multiple implications of the "will of the force" being equatable to the Will of God and His Control, foreseeing into the future, and calling Anakin "the chosen one" to bring reconciliation of the universal forces of good and evil, again equating Anakin with Jesus. The Episode 1 apprentice for the emperor, Darth Maul was truly an evil character and your kids may need your arm around them the first time his face appears in 15 x 30 foot larger-than-life, in-you-face grandeur.

But there they actually are helpful, these signs wouldn't do jack squat.

The more I visit that site, the more I wonder whether it's a joke or not, especially with these gems:
If you can hear the "Oh the Blood of Jesus" midi file, and it gets under your skin, don't turn your speakers off. The demons absolutely hate this song or any song that mentions the Blood of Jesus. The more this bothers you, the more demon infested you are.
Every time you click your SAVE button, think of SALVATION, which means DELIVERANCE
Did you know that apple cider or white vinegar is an effective deodorant? You may not believe it, but it is true, and actually works. You must try it to see for yourself.Everything you are about to read is also true, and actually works. You must try it to see for yourself.
On the news February 20, 2001, they said that the new Harry Potter movie will be sponsored by THE COCA-COLA COMPANY. They soon will be advertising it on their products. On their website, they are also considering making a new company with PROCTOR AND GAMBLE. Pepsi anyone?
They say Harry Potter is evil because it depicts witchcraft, but it's not like it's actually influencing children to practice it. It's just fantasy.

HP isn't evil. I've never heard of anyone being killed because of something from an HP book or movie and there is witchcraft in some form in a lot of books and movies.

The most ridiculous thing I've ever seen on fundies and HP over here is that a fundie translated some guy's essay about his 'true experience' being a Wiccan practicer and discovering lots of strange new worlds, new life, and new....er....realms...etc AND THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF THAT FUNDIE ESSAY WAS TO 'DISMISS SUPERSTITION'.

It's really fun/sad/inciting when fundies say something that slap their own face.

This idiot keep tlaking about the acurate depiction of satanism, and the 'hidden' requirements of spells (human sacrifice), but he prooves that he's making it all up when he ignores the obvious, blatent target:

You know whats disgusting about harry potter? The fact that My 6 year old little brother went to each of those horrid movies, he doesn't know that there are HP books. A new generation even dumber than their predecessors is emerging and they will believe its nothing but a movie franchise with a bunch of ridiculous fuckingg advertisements to accompany it.

Kids today are getting goddamn stupid....
