The bible was a best seller thousand years ago, Just like Harry potter is today.

Sure, but you could keep putting up a stumbling block in front of them. You have free will.

Read the following verses:

Exodus 22:18 - "Thou shall not suffer a witch to live."

Leviticus 19:31 - "Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the Lord your God."

Leviticus 20:6 - "And the soul that tumeth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, 1 will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people."

Now explain how anyone who believes in the Bible can be a fan of Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter?

I wonder how many things you enjoy that you're willing to throw away as a result of someone else's interpretation of scripture.

I don't really mind getting rid of the stuff to be honest, it's all mostly childish fantasy anyhow, I guess I'll feel a bit nostalgic over my Lord of the Rings collection and The Hobbit after a while though...

No true Christian can pollute their minds or their
children's minds with satanic garbage.
Why do "christians" do it anyway?

They are either carnal, ignorant Christians,
or they aren't really Christians at all.

Wow, you'd be a fun parent... not. You suck the joy right out of childhood.

Is the only fun to be had a bus ride to Jesus Camp singing Onward Christain Soldier?

No thank you.

Damn, well if that's the case, I guess I'll have to stop watching films, playing video games and trash a large part of my music collection.

Lord of the rings was written by JRR Toliken. He was a Christian and was in a writers group with CS Lewis, a very well respected Christian theologian.
My husband often talks about how lord of the rings is a allegory for the story of Jesus and good vs evil.
I can't speak of Harry potter as I've never read the books.
