A pastor reportedly told parents that he objected to the books portraying magic 'as both good and evil.'
A Catholic school in Tennessee has reportedly removed the popular Harry Potter book series from its library because they “risk conjuring evil spirits.”
"These books present magic as both good and evil, which is not true, but in fact a clever deception. The curses and spells used in the books are actual curses and spells; which when read by a human being risk conjuring evil spirits into the presence of the person reading the text," the email states, according to a report in The Tennesseean.
"Each pastor has canonical authority to make such decisions for his parish school," Hammel said."He's well within his authority to act in that manner." "I know that in the process they were going through and kind of weeding out some of the content in hopes of sprucing it up and improving the circulation," Hammel said.
