Technically, under a ruling made by Pope John Paul II, books are no longer banned.... there's just a list of books that the vatican STRONGLY SUGGESTS Catholics don't read (yeah, I know, that's not much better). I personaly don't care.... even Sister Rosemary( a nun at my church) agrees that there's nothing wrong with Harry Potter, and even encourages kids to read it because of the fact that it's a book and it gets kids to read.
