STR † THE FREEDOM BLOG

Friends,

Our in-boxes were full of emails from our loyal readers complaining that Billy had not told the truth when we revealed our “exclusive” of the final chapter of J. K. Rowling’s latest Harry Potter book. Having read the book I can confirm that we did not get the final chapter 100% accurate, however our speculation was considerably more accurate than other ultra-liberal sources such as Huffington Post and Slate Magazine. According to our trusted source, the reason for the error is that Rowlings‘ secularist publisher insisted on removing any Christian content from the book at the last minute before publication.

STR was the only web-site able to give you the unadulterated text, exactly as the author intended. I regard this as a major journalistic victory for ShelleyTheRepublican.com, and a victory for Christians who must constantly struggle against a secularizing media, hell-bent on turning our kids into sex-maniacs.

Keep reading STR.com for the truth about Harry Potter and the threat to America from paganism, witchcraft, wica and other forms of satanism.

I’d also like to address another aspect of the Harry Potter controversy. Clearly some people have reasonable grounds to suggest that Harry Potter may be opening our kids to the very real danger of the occult:

Last week our friends at Crosstalk dedicated an entire show to some of the negative aspects of this series, particularly the potential for harm if kids without the spiritual armor of Jesus are allowed to read it. We are very aware of the dangers of exposing kids to occult themes, and naturally we feel that parents who allow their children to read Harry Potter should do so under careful supervision and ensure that it is balanced with a few hours a day memorizing bible verses.

Please take a moment to listen to this audio-presentation on the dangers of Harry Potter:

However having read the latest book in the potter series, I find it to be an unambiguous endorsement of Republican values such as the need to fight Evil in whatever form it takes: The character of “Lord Voldermort” is based closely on the life of Hillary Clinton. Harry’s personal struggle against Voldemort is clearly intended to resemble the struggle we all suffer against a secular culture of death that denies our spirituality.

Who’s worse? Hillary Clinton or evil-sorcerer Voldemort? In 2008 Americans will have a chance to decide, but clearly J. K. Rowling has used her final as a sobering warning against Defeat-ocrat complacency.

The “Death Eaters”, the heartless gang of killers that supports the evil antagonist is clearly intended to represent the Daily-Kossacs. Rowling portrays these as a heartless gang of magic-wielding thugs, so clearly reminiscent of the hordes of liberal bloggers who are so keen to abuse the Internet (and American invention) to unfairly criticize our Christian leader and undermine our war-effort.

The dishonest journalist “Rita Skeeter” is an unambiguous satire of the mainstream media that has mis-represented our conservative values. Rita’s articles provide a moment of levity, but it’s clear to see where Rowling stands on left-wing abuses of journalistic freedom. She is speaking out against a biased press who like nothing more than to trash the reputations of the real heroes: Christians like George W. Bush and our loyal STR readers.

STR Fact File: Teens who have read the Harry Potter books are 20% more likely to have experimented with psychic or occult phenomena such as ouja-boards or curses. Are your kids communing with the devil via witchcraft?

It’s also worth pointing out that in the final section of the book, we can see that Potter renounces his magic. Lasting peace only comes to him when he puts aside his magical ways and accepts traditional family values, the basis upon which our society is built.

I think we need to take a fair and balanced side to the Harry Potter stories and tell both sides of this controversial issue. Is this book a dangerous slippery pathway to the occult or a ringing endorsement of family-values and our need to remain resolute in the war on terror?

What do you think?

Tristan
