I was reading the latest issue last night at work, and hit the letters to the editor section (‘Talk to us’ I think they call it).Anyway… This woman wrote to complain that the Digest had edited her last letter against the \*Harry Potter[/i} books, which proved that J.K. Rowlings(sp?) had admittd to being a satan worshipper, and that the books had converted 14 nmillion kids to Satan Worship. Her source? The Onion!!! BWAAAH-HAA-HAA!!! (Yes the Digest DID inform her (and the other readers) that The Onion is a satirical newspaper. Apparently, some christian groups have been using this article as proof against Harry Potter) ---
