Facts are:

1. The main "good guy" is Harry Potter.
2. He does witchcraft.
3. Witchcraft is sin according to Holy Bible.
4. Joanne Rowling is follower of Bible, not enemy of it.

These are contradictory facts, which are being accepted by mind.
Contradiction inside mind is split of the mind.
The split is schizophrenia.

Now I say to the rest of you in Thyatira, to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned satan’s so-called deep secrets

Revelation 2:24.

Sin does not exist, but Sin is present.

It is??? How?

It is close to promoting witchcraft. It is far from condemning deeds of Potter.

O, there many Christian motives in her books. For example, the scene, where Harry Potter is in afterlife.

But it is playing with the fire.

Heresy.

God does not magic, God does miracles.

Police does not murder, police executes.

The views are usually changing in time.

Harel13 said:
Well...no, not really. The traditional view of Jesus has remained pretty consistent.

No problem. Some Jew accepts Jesus. God does not care about statistics of these transition rates.
Healthy person should not care about some things. He should not care about satan going to hell.
God is person.

God is a human being? Thats new to me :confused: im confused

Jesus is God and Human, it is my faith testimony.

There is no contradiction, if Rowling affirms that what she has been writing is fantasy.
That is, it does not exist in real life.

Christians do not follow magic because Christians do not believe magic exists.

You do realise it is fiction, does the Bible forbid stories to be told?

You have afterlife in many religions so not excusive to Christianity.

I think you may have misunderstood her fiction. Just because someone use parts of religions belief in a fictional book does not make the book or autor evil :)

J. R. R. Tolkien was a devout Roman Catholic. Yet, cleary, Gandalf was a wizard!

Like Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, both written by Christians, these are archetypes. Christ was the hero archetype as well. No contradictions here. It's not glorifying evil.

Watch this:
Hocus, pocus, abra cadabera (which is Aramaic):
Facts (per Judaism) are:

1. Jesus did witchcraft.
2. Witchcraft is a sin according to the Bible.
3. Christians are following a sinner.
---
4. But a little-known fact is that at one point, the Church allowed certain forms of magic to be practiced.

And as Ollivander used to say:

Its just a story - fantasy - should Hansel and Gretel be banned there is a witch in that story - guy like and Clive Barker or Anne Rice must be down right Satan worshippers if we go by the stories not to mention thousands of other writers. Its a child's story get over it.
