Thank you, TGS, for confirming Rowling did not intend the HP series to be a Christ allegory. I find it amazing how people can read some of the most interesting things into books, and include convincing arguments. When I first saw the title of this thread, my first thought was, "You have to be kidding!" First, the narrow minded Fundies who condemned the series just because it witches in it (and most never even read it!), now this? Nuff said.
I find it curious how many people here referred to C. S. Lewis' Narnia Chronicles as being a Christ allegory (which I fully believe) yet never mentioned his other Christ allegory (it wasn't as obvious as the Narnia Chronicles and covered a broader scope).
