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!

I saw this earlier and waffled on whether I wanted to post it onto my own journal yesterday. I declined doing so because I was at an utter loss to put into words how despairingly stupid this woman is. I just... hnnn.

My first response to the story was to laugh. If I hadn't, I think my brain might have imploded.

The only thing I can say is that as a witch of Pagan faith, despite my best efforts, Accio has never worked for me. So, the youth of today are perfectly safe from the "witchcraft" of Harry Potter.

XD I know, damnit! I've studied the Harry Potter books "religiously" and none of the spells work for me. :/

I would worship at the Church of Harry Potter. We could have special sermons about slash. Oh, it'd be beautiful.
