This article appeared on AOL this morning about a Georgia woman who was trying to ban Harry Potter from her school district. To quote:
Tell me what you think, my Pagan Pretties. (You, too, Ferret.)
And:Mallory, whose children attend J.C. Magill Elementary School, has worked for more than a year to ban the popular books from Gwinnett schools, claiming the popular fiction series is an attempt to indoctrinate children in religious witchcraft.
"It's mainstreaming witchcraft in a subtle and deceptive manner, in a children-friendly format," said Mallory, who was not at the meeting.
We've discussed this sort of thing in the past, but why don't we get a discussion going about preconceived notions and how you would defend this case, should you be asked to do so.In the Georgia decision, the state board ruled that Mallory had failed to prove that the books promote the Wicca religion.
Mallory said she wasn't able to bring forward any evidence at the hearing.
