| Re: Does Harry Potter promote the Occult? Magic, according to an anthropology text of mine, is manioulation of the supernatural by man. If a miracle is an act of God, asked for or not, then magic and miracles are not the same. Magic is under man's control. I think part of the objection is the glorification of a culture of magic use with man in control of the supernatural. In Narnia the magic takes place in an aternate reality; God can therefore have given differing natural laws. |
