A breath of fresh air.,
By
This review is from: Harry Potter and the Meaning of Life (Paperback)
After reading many disappointing books on the subject of Harry Potter from a Christian perspective this one came as a breath of fresh air. Plyming manages to combine belief with a sense of humour and a lively intelligence. He has identified several key themes that run through the Harry Potter books that are most certainly spiritual and moral, even if not explicity Christian. I liked his ability to see the difference between these things and to make the links that are appropriate rather than forcing the parallels. This slim volume is not produced by a major publisher and so may be hard to find, but is well worth seeking out.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Moderately interesting,
By Erik C. Pihl "Readerman" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Harry Potter and the Meaning of Life (Paperback)
It should be made clear from the outset that this is a pamphlet, not a book, and it is by an English Christian apologist. That said, much of what he has to say is interesting if you are curious about the phenomenon of people with a particular belief set rejecting a piece of art (graphic, literary, etc.) because they can't find a way to incorporate it into their belief sustem. It is unfortunate that this sort of thing happens, because it prevents many people, who would otherwise be well-meaning, to spend time (one could say, 'waste time') responding to what could only be understood as criticism from people who haven't bothered to think about the material in any depth. It reminds me of Gus Hall's famous quote,"My mind is made up, don't confuse me with the facts." That said, if you should feel so inclined and want to read this script, see if your local library has a copy of it. Borrow it and read it. Then, if you must have a copy, rush right on-line and order your personal copy from Amazon.com.
