Feh. Today's heretic is tomorrow's prophet. Having extensively studied [in my former non-Christian years] comparative religion/mythology, high ritual magic, Enochian mysteries, Egyptian rites and other such dusty arcanum, I could tell 'Potterionists' a thing or two.....:)
Cute and intelligent! :) I think the Abrahamic religions would be more complete with Enoch included. And foreign mythology should indeed be studied and not burned as blasphemy as churches might want it. It just isn't very enlightened.

Years and years of studying "pagan" religions brought me back full-circle to Christianity.
All religions have almost identical tales, therefore there must've been one common, universal source for those stories, at some point.
Though I've walked some theologically dangerous paths, I would not trade the journey for the world.
Perhaps God knew that my particular mindset would only accept His truth once I had fully explored all the other "truths" out there, first.
Burning books is not the right approach.
Knowledge that is banned becomes that which is most desired.
Just ask Ray Bradbury.....:)
