A spokesman for the Christian Civic League of Maine (CCL) is calling a pre-release event for the latest"Harry Potter"book,Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,a satanically inspired event,an event that was mirrored in bookstores around the globe.The"Midnight Magic Costume Party" was held last weekend at a Barnes & Noble outlet in Augusta,Maine. CCL spokesman Mike Hein says the event included fortune-telling using a brand of occult tarot cards called "Gypsy Witch." He also says that the event was held in the "Children's Department" with several hundred children in attendance.According to Hein,store employees also used the book Cards of your Destiny,a book that shows how to use birthdays to tell fortunes,for the pre-teens and teens who waited in line for an opportunity to experience what the store literally labeled as"divination"by having their tarot fortunes read.The League spokesman asserts that despite the Bible clearly warning against associating with that activity and spiritists and mediums,many Christians,even prominent ones,are trying to find a proper fit for the Harry Potter literature genre in their belief system by calling it Christian allegory."I see the people who are actually saying it,going out on a bit of a limb,and perhaps there is some deception involved,unintentionally so,on their part,"he says."They want so much for this negative to have a silver lining,that they're seeing something where there really isn't any positive overall in this series."Hein,who was present at the event, says even he was taken aback by the store's labeling of that"Children's Department"activity as divination,which he says should be a clue to any Christian readers and observers that they tie in to the Bible's warning in Deuteronomy 18 about avoiding such an occult activity.http://www.onenewsnow.com/2007/07/maine_bookstore_holds_divinations.php
