I'm like you, I find it interesting that in the world of fandom that writing a fic that contains religious tones is "edgy"or "brave" and yet writing about incest between brothers, student/teacher relationships and underage sex is par for the course.

That really sums up why and where my mind boggles.

As far as the Purebloods, I can see that they wouldn't have a relationship with Muggle religions. But those that are living in two worlds, there has to be some sort of relationship with it because they would, just by watching the telly, be exposed to religion.

I'm with you on the Seamus - I simply can't see him any other way and that might have more to do with the romantic version of Ireland and religion that I was fed as an Irish American.

I wasn't expecting nearly this response, quite honestly. I'm very glad that there's so much discussion in here. It's really very very cool :).
