As I am homeschooled, I would like to proudly say that Tolkien is all over our house and the walls are not ashamed!

No book has been removed from our school except for the Harry Potter ones, those being of true "witch craft" says my father. I myself am also a born again christian and share the view of my father. I have a point of view that most (private and christian)schools don't dare to make though, if I am truely rooted in my belife, than why should I need to abstain from the reading of that book, or any which contains witch craft of sorts, it cannot harm me, nor can it control me or change me, and by no means can it change what I belive. Does that make sense to you guys?
