The Georgia woman who wants Harry Potter taken out of her kids' school library has lost her appeal. She's already gone through the entire appeals process for her local board of ed, and lost all along the way. But she's not giving up hope. Because, apparently, people want to "know where God is, and he's still there. They just can't find him," she said tearily.
Honestly, the crazies of the world need to learn that if there's a book they don't want to read, or a tv show or movie they don't want to watch, no one is forcing them to. They can just read some other book and leave every one else alone. I think most kids can sufficiently separate fiction from reality to realize that the broom in their kitchen can't fly and that they can't turn their pet guinea pig into a water goblet.

wait, Harry Potter is fiction. Oh man, and I almost stopped going to church, too. I guess this explains why I couldn't find any "defense against the dark arts groups."
