Why I hate Harry Potter
If deception, cheating, envy, hatred, jealousy, magic, black magic for that matter, are the evil concepts you appreciate and affirm, then this is the best time for you to stop reading this article. This is probably because of the fact that I intend to pull down any person who propagates these devilish passions among the multitudes of novel readers and television viewers around the world – children below 15 being the chief victims.

J K Rowling - I do really salute the mettle in this personality. She is undoubtedly a gem of a novelist, and I personally have no grudges against her. But it’s the ideas she has puts in her books, unintentionally, which make me go nuts. Now that she is the wealthiest of all the female writers in the world, I also believe she is the most powerful of them too. This is because she has a hold on millions of minds, both young and adult. Buts it’s the children who are the ones still in their growing stages, and they catch up with every notion taught to them – good or bad. (I hope everyone agrees with me when I say children learn very fast.) And this hurts me. Deception, cheating, envy, hatred, jealousy and black magic are the teachings they are being given. And the irony is that they are too happy to learn them.

It is very well a sign of depleting morals in our society. Not getting much into this topic of morals and principles, in a nut shell I’d like to say that we have begun to get entertained by evil.
It’s not just this book that is cementing these concepts. Every work that depicts the victory over evil has in a way or the other done this. The logic seems to be weird but we seldom understand that it is the evil things that look more fascinating and entertaining than the good ones.

It is not just the written material stuff that is to be blamed. The movies, the television; it’s all a part of this powerful "industry" of entertainment. Here too, all the above said concepts are depicted in animation and as we all know that a single picture is worth more than a ten thousand words, it’s simply more damaging.
And of course, the violence - it is so liked and loved by all of us. The stunts, the action scenes are so often discussed, appreciated and sometimes imitated too. It is enjoyed to such an extent that we become highly fragile when frustrated, and subsequently get aggressive. Here, emotional intelligence is baffled and ceases to have a control on us.

There has been a survey in the United States of America which says than an average 14-yead-old child, in all his lifetime of 14 years has viewed 11,000 hours of violence on the television. Now, it is believed that a person becomes an expert in whatever he spends time with, for 9,000 hours. So, it’s becomes obvious that we have children who have expertise in violence. Wow, we are so well civilized. Aren’t we?

It won’t be much difficult for me a task to go on pin pointing the disadvantages of the entertainment we like to have. I only don’t do it fearing that even my article will start sentertaining you. What you need to do is to think and act. Now I am nobody to make you think, but all I can say is "Choose wisely what you learn and teach". That is all.

    I mean world to myself. And I don't like it (that book). And I don't care who likes it and who hates it. A book that can't teach me anything is useless.

    'Harry Potter' is a character from a book. 'Harry Potter' is real only for children. And the words are 'magic','retarded' and 'people'.

    If a person is bold enough, he or she need not be anonymous. If you care for the younger generation, you better watch your own steps. It's better if the implied meaning of this post is understood.
