I feel more religious book burnings coming on
Dumbledore, the old guy in Harry Potter is gay. From the BBC:
Harry Potter author JK Rowling has revealed that one of her characters, Hogwarts school headmaster Albus Dumbledore, is gay.
You know it was bad enough with religious fundamentalists in the United States trying to get the Harry Potter books banned (here, here etc), for evil witchcraft and the like, now they'll be at it in full force again.
I can see the headlines now...
"Gay witchcraft - the new threat to Bible-believing Americans".
I give it a week until some fundamentalist nuts call for a ban, or a public burning (Reverend Lovejoy style), or some other crazy thing.

First they hated JK Rowling's works because of the witchcraft, and now homosexuality. I imagine there will be piles and piles of burned books. haha

I don't know, it's a pretty cool thing that the audience cheered the revelation.

Sorry, but you've gotta admit that dumbledore being gay is kinda funny. Now we all know why he cared for Harry so much. HAHA
But at my high school everyone loves HARRY POTTER. Just because Dumbledore's gay or because it is supposedly AGAINST AMERICANS RELIGION, doesn't meen it shoul be banned. It is my favourite BOOK/Film ever. It just so pathetic and childish. Get a grip people.
