Charlotte Church Slams Pope For Potter Pronouncement

Charlotte Church has slammed Pope Benedict XVI after his criticism of the Harry Potter books, where he suggested they were “a subtle seduction, which has deeply unnoticed and direct effects in undermining the soul of Christianity.” The singer told The Sun, “I’m from a Catholic family. But I don’t like this new Pope. He even wants to ban Harry Potter! He says it is because of witchcraft and other bad stuff! If he bothered to sit down and read it he’d understand the morals of it.”
