Dumbing down fanfiction (fundamentalist style!)

Okay... Just this...

conservative mom rewrites Harry Potter so her kids won't become witches

Read it and weep. I weep for her kids. The semicolon abuse, lingering on Hagrid's manly chest hair, and Harry's newly blued eyes kept me from getting past the first page. But apparently Hogwarts school of Prayer, and Reverend Dumbledore, are going to lead Harry down the righteous path and Face down the evils of Barack Obama (Voldemort) cause, yeah... *scratches head* I think she missed the Hogwarts Express!

The link I saw via a fandom friend on FB says that it's posted at ff.net and I have to wonder why a genuinely conservative Christian would associate with that riff-raff rather than just have it on their blog on something. That said, it is serious wtfery.

Yeah... It's here. But I bet she'll burn out before finishing her rewrite of book one. *fingers crossed*

Maybe by posting on ff.net, she's trying to spread the truth to the poor corrupted witches the real books have created?

There are more of those on ff.net than you'd think . . .

LOL Well, just one is clearly more than I'd think. It seems like going on an anti-porn crusade at Tumblr. Good luck with that.
