    Sooooo, I actually HAVENT read harry potter. Based on this, Harry Potter is a jock with medical problems who acts without thinking…which is likely why he has medical problems.

        Nah, the New Testament is about some dude walking around, living a hippie life and preaching ethics to the people. I’d say none of that happens in HP. It’s more a coming of age story that is missing half the coming of age elements, mixed with fighting facism and lots of fantasy elements.

      Pretty close. The scar is magic and gives him a spiritual connection to Magic Hitler. It’s completely unrelated to the injuries he has sustained as a Magic Quarterback in Magic Football, except for that one time he got knocked out during a game by prison warden ghosts. Hope that clears things up.
