When we came back from the field trip [to the ice cream parlor, with the children I used to work with], I met up with the after-school kids. They had a movie today: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
I enjoy the Harry Potter films. We have two boys, brothers, who are Jehovah's Witnesses, and they weren't allowed to watch the movie, because it has to do with Halloween and Jehovah's Witnesses don't celebrate holidays. They don't celebrate anything other than God herself, and I can see the religious point of that. [My co-worker] Debbie, however, declared it "stupid." The idea of respecting another religion just didn't occur to her.
