There's something to be said for the idea that propaganda being disseminated through entertainment is an inherently negative concept, I guess, but...the idea that reading about Harry Potter and the Pevensies breeds a generation of stupes waiting around to get "saved" by some duly-elected saviour seems reeeallly reaching. Sort of like the idea that kids will read Phillip Pullman and immediately start hating on God; he's not that good a writer, sadly.
