This is strange as it's a matter of religion
Ik when did religion get pulled into this...
Like let's just not go there.
Ik some serious arguments could be started
Yeah. So let's stop with mixing hp with religion.
Hermione said wizards can't magic up food, so definitely not
Wizards can't come back life
Wizards can't stop storms with a statement
Wizard can't raise the dead with just 2 words
Definitely not a wizard and the fact that you even asked it is disrespectful and I believe you were purposely trying to disrespect people's believes
Just cause your not religious doesn't mean you can disrespect what a group of people (Christians and Muslims believe)
Wasn’t Jesus famous for multiplying food, not creating it? I believe Hermione did mention that that is possible. And I’m not sure how its disrespectful to anyone to suggest that Jesus was a wizard within the Harry Potter universe.
Even if multiplying food is possible for wizards, it doesn't negate the other examples I gave
Also, I don't know where Hermione mentioned multiplying food is possible (perhaps I just don't remember)
Also, it is beyond obvious that Jesus wasn't mentioned in hp, except Christmas
There is absolutely nothing to prove that he was a wizard if you think about it for 2 minutes.
And suggesting it knowing fully well how these religion view witchcraft is disrespectful
Fictional witchcraft is one thing but relating it with people's believes that doesn't want it, is another
For everyone saying it's disrespect... Well guys, I'm catholic and I don't find it disrespectful.
Then he was probably not a wizard, the reasons have been stated above.
However, I'd like to point out that other societies had other kinds of magic, for instance, it is mentioned that Arabic people had flying curpets so we don't know what the magicians in Jerusalem were able to do.
Whatever d magicians of Jerusalem were able to do, it's still disrespectful to imply that jesus was a magician. Knowing fully well how the bible views magic
“You shall not permit a sorceress to live.
But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.”
For rebellion is as the sin of divination, and presumption is as iniquity and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, he has also rejected you from being king.”
“If a person turns to mediums and necromancers, whoring after them, I will set my face against that person and will cut him off from among his people.
Outside are the dogs and sorcerers and the sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.
And I will cut off sorceries from your hand, and you shall have no more tellers of fortunes;
ETC ETC ETC
Do you understand why calling Jesus a wizard could be considered disrespectful now?
What do you think?
