Harry Potter series are one of those where there is complete denial of God or Religion. Hogwarts and all the characters in the novels have gone through hardest time of their life. But then even we did not find anyone who is praying to God for help. There is not a single church also in the setting of the novels. When hard time comes people choose to act rather than pray. We also didn’t find that any where it was God’s miracle that save any of the characters or anywhere the God is coming and saving characters from catastrophe. So in one way J. K. Rowling has denied the existence of God or Religion in her books. May be these all are the reasons why some Christians are not happy with the books and they are asking people to not to read it. They believe that this books are celebrating Satanism. Because magic and witchcraft are symbols of Satan worshiping in the Christianity.
If we look from another angel then we can find some of elements of Christianity here. The very survival of Harry and then took him to the safe place by three person it self is like story of a Jesus. Then in last parts Harry is referred as “Chosen one”, which it self is similar as Christ. So these way we can also find Christianity in to the Harry Potter series.
