I'm a muggle with no special powers or skills. I can't even make edible spaghetti. There are days, however, in which I would not mind having an invisibility cloak. :D

:confuse2: I feel so stupid...what's a muggle? I looked it up in my old dictionary, but it wasn't in there. Guess I'm just going to fake it...I'm not a witch (well I can be) so I must be a muggle!? :D Is it a Harry Potter term? I'm one that didn't see the movies or read the books.

Yes, muggle is a Harry Potter term. It means a non-wizard.

The books are really quite good and are worth checking out if you enjoy reading fiction.

But no, I have not read any of the series... maybe I should check it out! I am looking for something new to do with some free time because I hardly sleep :tired:

Welcome proto! :2party: (Should I post that in a different section?)

You guys still have a "Nice Community". There is nothing wrong with teasing a good friend. My goodness... life would be quite boring if you can't "Laugh" when funny things happen.

I've read most of the series - I enjoyed the earlier books more that the books later in the series. I think the beginning ones were just some fun fiction, the later ones seemed to have some sort of different undercurrent running through them. They just had a different "feel" to them - don't know if that makes any sense to you.

I agree, Dobie. I think the later books were more "dark" than the first two. But I enjoyed every one of them, and even stood in line at midnight one time to get mine!!! I guess you could say I'm a total Potterhead!!!

i enjoyed those books so much! loved the words and all...the "owls" and all of her imagination...i'm convinced there is a magical world that we can't see....and i always knew Snape was a good guy.

yep there is a world you cant see!!!!

many christian groups came out against these books as "softening " the edge of occult activities. I know we are all adults. Do any of you think these books have made magic/witchcraft more mainstream for kids?

What I don't understand is, some people condemned these books (probably without even reading them) because there is witchcraft. Well, what about The Wizard of Oz?!!! I distinctly remember a good witch AND a bad witch. I just don't get what all the controversy is about.

I haven't heard about the controversy surrounding them...
I will admit when I read it, I did chuckle for a second lol

People keep themselves busy worrying about ridiculous things. They have to feel they have control over EVERYTHING, what a way to waste life. :(

so what about banning science fiction? fantasy? snow white and that talking magic mirror? no singing mother goose songs?
no, it's no more mainstream than it was. santa, tooth fairy, easter bunny are all magic too. ban them?
i think there is a lot of inconsistency in the rreligious right.
