I guess it would be too much to expect people to think up new ways of stupid

I recently read that in Georgia a woman is leading yet another attempt to ban the Harry Potter books from libraries. And of course, she admits to not having actually read them.

These books are helping to mainstream witchcraft. These books are dangerous and harmful to our children.

And no less than the Chief excorcist of the Vatican (how's that for a twenty-first century job title?) said:

There is no doubt that the signature of the Prince of Darkness is clearly within these books.


Even though I should be used to christians getting their underoos in a twist over just about anything, the Potter business has always been dismaying to me. And then it occured to me:

These people actually believe in witchcraft.


Update: She lost, Harry won (Shakespeare's Sister).


Update and bump to June 30th: She's appealing to the Georgia State Board of Education - Harry Potter and the Half-Brained Dumbass:

I hate it when mouth-breathing fuckwits try to make the rest of the planet as offensively stupid as they are.
