After all, it teaches good morals, and Harry is a very Christ-like figure (especially at the end of the seventh book). Not to mention that both are made up drivel.

First of all, I'm being facetious.
Secondly, Jesus did not write the bible. Men who didn't even know him wrote it sixty years after his death. Many details must have been exaggerated.
There is historical proof that a guy named Jesus existed, but the only text that says he was anything special is the bible.
**SPOILER**
Jesus died and rose back to life so that humans may be safe from Satan.
Harry died and rose back to life so that humans would be safe from Voldemort
By the way, if you thought this question was stupid, why did you answer it?

There is no way to disprove Harry Potter's existence. Just as there is no way to disprove God's, but that is no reason to believe in either of them.

Sure, in 5000 yrs. Harry potter might be a savior.

Harry Potter was written in an already developed world.
Most of the prominent religions hold their roots from the ancient times where people were often confused and needed an explanation for things in life.
Harry Potter is purely fictional as well. The Bible and other religious scripts (Not necessarily Abrahamic) have a good chunk of some historical texts in there to make it a little more credible than Harry Potter.
When it comes to telling the story for moral value though, they are pretty much at the same level.
The only thing that really matters is being nice and respectful to others, not the part about the story telling.

Errrmmm ... no. I mean, I enjoy Harry P. more than I've ever enjoyed the bible, but... just no. Harry Potter is complete fiction, while the bible has very strong historic roots, and is obviously the real thing. Kay then. Loves,

The bible additionally has historic actuality and accuracy secure in it. to not point out the various of course complete crammed prophecies besides... one in all those prophecies telling of Alexander the greats branch giving upward thrust to the roman empire. And final Harry Potters author has made it sparkling it to be a fictional writing... wish that helped..God bless you !

Interesting just had this debate elsewhere.
Wouldn't so much as say "worship" like the bible, BUT there are definitely some positive spiritual (not to be confused with "religious") messages.
Like asking people to chose between "what is easy and what is right".

Yep, because of this: "both are made up drivel."
Except Harry Potter isn't quite as hokey as the bybo.
