Harry Potter And The Sorcerers Stone
(Joanna K. Rowling)
Joanna K. Rowling?s Harry Potter and the Sorcerer?s Stone through Harry Potter and the Goblet of FireThe main character is a teenage orphan deeply unhappy living with his strict uncle and aunt until he discovers he has magical powers and joins a school of wizardry. Each book in the series grows darker and more comlex, more somber and violent. The latest opens with the murder of an old man. Some parents and editors are happy to see young people read anything rather than watch TV or go to the cinema, but reading about sorcery encourage some youth to dabble in it. Some boys turn to witchcraft, and some girls join covens to learn about casting spells to pass exams, find boyfriends or become rich. The Pagan Federation says curious youth and children contact them in sufficient numbers that they?ve appointed their first youth officer. Wizardry makes some children feel powerful and worthwhile and special because they possess "secret" knowledge, but as they get pulled into it, it possesses and obsesses them. It?s no longer a fantasy world or a "healthy outlet" for violent tendencies. Observe:An 18-year-old fatally bludgeoned his grandfather with a roofing hammer. The boy?s father later said the boy regularly played the video game Resident Evil, wherein characters wield hatchets and behead rampaging zombies. "The boy?s imagination became reality," said his father.Two boys strolled through their high school, firing semi-automatic rifles and detonating pipe bombs, hooting and laughing. After killing several classmates, they shot themselves. Prior to their deaths, they were obsessed with black metal music, gruesome and violent movies and video games.A teen girl commits suicide, leaving behind a diary containing elaborate drawings of satanic scenes.A young man chops off his left hand and stabs himself in the chest as part of an occult ritual to "purify his body."A fourteen-year-old boy preoccupied with books on the occult claims to have had a vision of Satan, after which he kills his mother.
