Hehe, no brother, I'm totally cool discussing this. I'm not out to hunt down people that disagree. I'm just sharing my take on things.

You see, I understand how we have liberty and all that. I just know first hand and therefore can attest to the harm these books can cause to young people. I want to do everything I can to make sure that other Christians know that I fell prey to the seduction of the occult because of my exposure to books that make wizards/witches/magic/etc sound interesting/safe/good etc. Also, I personally know others that were lead to the same end by the same means that I was. So shouldn't we ask ourselves if this is indeed something we should encourage others to participate in without any sort of warning? Don't we owe it to the young in the faith, and age, to guide them away from the hazards that are avoidable, especially those that the Lord our God calls an abomination?

Peace and Love,
