Sheri I do not like the Harry Potter books. Nor do I like The Golden Compass. If it denounces Christianity, or God, or Jesus Christ, I don't like it.

What about using your imagination and exploring new possibilities


message 1056: by Lizzie (new)

Lizzie Meh, I don't like the series either. I think its overrated. I'm not the only person in the world who dislikes it, that much is obvious. No matter what the fans say. People need to chill. So what if we HATE harry potter? It doesn't have to be a "awesome" book in our perspective. AND who cares if people LOVE it?

What annoys me is the attacks. I get annoyed with the fans than the book itself sometimes.

You clearly missed the point. It is like talking to a wall. It is getting so boring.
She said clearly she hate the series. That is why she is a hater. If you insist otherwise, then be so. There is nothing I can no anymore for someone who reads more than the text itself.

I think you need to read the initial comment on page 1. The hater was the one who provoked HP fans by improper use of word. So for that person, there is no such thing as 'Who cares if you love HP'. She certainly felt disgusted with the fans and chose to attack instead of having decent conversation.

We do not care if you hate HP series. But we surely care if anyone attacks us.

Oh my. Aren't you something. What did I actually write? Her words defines herself. If is that all she can say, then it defines her kind of hater. Short and without further explanation. Why in whatever I ever thought that u understand English better is kinda confusing.

I am very Christian, and I am a lover of HP. To my knowledge the books never denounce God, in fact JK avoided the subject of God entirely, because she didn't want it to turn into a controversy. In fact, a lot of people consider the last book especially to be quite Christian in tone.

I'm not trying to make you read them, but I hope you will consider the possibility that these books are not evil in nature. Sure, they may have some actions and content which goes against the Bible, but the actual morality of the stories is quite positive.

Just my thoughts.


message 1064: by Jacquel (new) - rated it 5 stars

Jacquel I too am a Christian, but I don't like the books because of the witchcraft. I don't like the books because it is too cliched, took too much stuff from other (recognizable) sources (Lord of the Rings, anyone?), the main character is a brat who acts like a puppet, does what he is told without complaining, and marries a Mary-Sue character.

Now *that's* why I don't like Harry Potter.

I rest my case.

Valerie That's offensive. youre basically offending the whole world, you know? It's okay if you don't care for it, but please dont call the people who do idiots. And why don't you like it?

Constantly? Where did you get this? From your hatred mind? You responded to my comment to Lizzie and added something. My comment was about the first subject was all about a hater provoked HP fans. If you consider calling HP fans idiots as not an attack to us, then you surely need to fix yourself.

Chelsea Clifton Trollin trollin trollin, keep this forum trollin...

Ok, the person who started this discussion obviously did so because they enjoy pissing people off.

It's unfortunate that they are so frustrated with people liking something that they don't. Perhaps they are angry all the time (Being that it's the human condition to have different likes and dislikes), and we're just the easiest group to yell about?

Whatever the case, this person was trolling, and it's better if we just stop responding (in my opinion).

Mattie This is becoming a very heated discussion. I mean I understand if someone hates the book though I love them but the person might have worded it wrong when they said that anyone who read hp is an idiot

If someone wants to point out actual things they they disliked about the book and are ABLE to recieve comments on their opinion (because that's the entire point of a discussion board, to talk to each other, analyze their opinions and then respond), then fine, keep talking. Commenting about the ORIGINAL topic is not helping anyone anymore. No one cares who is attacking who.

I am happy to discuss with someone who actually is open to discussion why I love the books, and I'm happy to recieve comments about why people don't like the books.

message 1080: by Melanie (new)

Melanie Wow - Are not Harry Potter books shelved in the "young adult," section? That should tell you that your literary taste will mature to the Literary and adult kinds of books. This book/series is only a stepping stone to really good books that stand the test of time.
