Harry Potter, Christianity, and Magic Conclusion
I believe I have belabored the point to a sufficient degree, by now. But why lay out the primary arguments used against the idea of Christian wizards, and then their counters? Why discuss magico-presentism? Why discuss Christian Occultism? Beyond being an academic, it is to demonstrate that the ideas of magic, as presented in Harry Potter, and Christianity are not mutually exclusive. They can coexist and evidently did for long enough in the original series to have Christianity act as a cultural backing.
Christianity arrived in England in the 2nd century. Since around the year 200, if Tertullian is to be believed. It had been a present belief system for one thousand, seven hundred and ninety-one years by the time of the first book. One thousand, four hundred and ninety-two years between its arrival and the signing of the Statute. It was the dominant religion by the time of the Norman Conquest, and that was in the 1000s. It is entirely reasonable that a magical society would have found a way to coexist with and believe in Christianity. This then brings us to the topic of what would a magical variation of Christianity look like?
