From Yahoo news: Harry Potter may carry a wand, ride a broomstick and count a werewolf among his friends but a new book claims the boy wizard’s adventures are really full of Christian imagery and morals. “I could run a weekly bible study using Harry Potter as a starting point. It is a gold mine of biblical truth if you look at it that way,” Connie Neal, author of “The Gospel According to Harry Potter,” told Reuters in an interview.

Two Harry Potter toys (Chamber of Secrets Lego sets and the Harry Potter Slime Chamber Play Set) have made the “Hot Dozen” list, predicted to be the top sellers this holiday season.

According to ABCNews, publishers hailed Jesus Christ and Harry Potter as saviors of their industry in tough economic times.
