This whole Harry Potter = evil debacle is even more hilarious when one
realizes that it all began with an article from the satirical website The
Onion. In fact, many opponents STILL distribute printouts of the article,
found here: http://www.theonion.com/onion3625/harry_potter.html (with all
references to it's source removed). It's a reminder of just how blindly some
folk will follow half-baked e-mail forwards they receive.

Thanks for the link.

But....

That article was published sometime after the release of Book 4 (or so it
says).  The 'debacle' started well before then, when Harry Potter started to
gain popularity, and only Books 1 and 2 had been released.
