Permit me a moment to laugh. Well, maybe a bit longer.
And permit me a moment to go through the article with my red pen, correcting mistakes. The Daily Mail isn't the best of papers.

I think this is hilarious, to be perfectly honest, and it serves well to point out how ridiculous these evangelicals can be. I mean, come on. To have read the whole series (of "episodes", as the Daily Mail has so eloquently put it *guffaw*), and bought the books and seen the films, to suddenly ban them from your house, and stop your family from reading them because a character may be "gay"? Come off it. I have to say, though, that I particularly like the description of homosexuality being "evil", and how it's used as a "problem solving tool". You have to admit, these people really do have a way with words!
I think it's worth noting that JKR replied to the question with, "My truthful answer to you... I always thought of Dumbledore as gay." Not that he
is gay, or that she had
written the character as gay, but that she
thinks of him as gay. It might sound silly to some of you, but when you write things, they come alive and have a mind of their own. You could sit down with a solid plan, but something will find a way around it, and the story will tell itself differently. It's kind of... organic, if you will.
In a nutshell, because I'm tired, and because I want to go to bed - HAHA!! Crazy Bible Bashers.
EDIT: Oh dear... I'm turning into Raziel! I'm using
italics in a post where I ridicule the ridiculous. Wailey, wailey!
