>Be me
>Room is sort of cluttered and messy
>Buy a shelf to organize books
>Come across Dungeons and Dragons books and Harry Potter novels
>Wat do?
Before I became Catholic though I was worldly and wanted to be like by nerdcore friends so I did buy these forgotten realm books at Goodwill. Last year I saw a video of Fr. Dominic Radecki who said that most exorcism cases he deals with are a result of people playing D'n'D.
I did salvage this Harry Potter book from a family friend who routinely cleans her home and I accepted them because I didn't want them to be spread around if they were to be donated to a library. Harry Potter is obviously not Alister Crowley tier but still it's nonsense that children shouldn't read. Would it be a charitable act if these books had a date night with my paper shredder? :laugh1:

Like all heretical books, including witchcraft, you MUST BURN THEM.

Yes. Burn them.

It's not always possible to burn things depending on where you live.

AnthonyPadua is correct that it is not always possible to burn things because of open flame restrictions and air quality issues. Equally effective is to have the books shredded. Once could check with their local solid waste service or recycling center about how to do this. In the U.S. there are commercial docuмent shredding services, but they charge a fee. One could also rip out the pages and send them to traditional paper recycling.

My husband and a friend of his make a habit of removing heretical books from the public space when they can, then when they get enough that they are taking up too much room they get together and have “book club”, which is sitting around the fire shooting the breeze, beer in hand, while burning bad books.

Do people even play D&D anymore? Last I heard it transitioned into ultra woke queer garbage.

I ❤️ this idea!
