Oberon Zell outted.
February 9, 2008 – 10:12 pm“[Oberon Zell is]regarded as the inspiration for the fictional professor in the Harry Potter series.”
From an Interview with ABC Sydney, Australia - http://www.abc.net.au/sydney/stories/s1551407.htm
This according to Oberon Zell.
“Albus Dumbledore, a hero of the phenomenally popular Harry Potter series and headmaster of the wizarding school Hogwarts, is gay.” - http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/story?id=3755544&page=1
This according to author J.K. Rowling, creator of the Harry Potter character Dumbledore.
I am shocked and disgusted with J.K. Rowling. How dare she out he founder of Church of All Worlds in this way?
Note: This post is a complete joke. As the author never mentioned the character being gay in any of her novels, or even hinted at it. As the author has closed the series of books in which the character dwells. I kind of think that she decided to screw around with all the folk trying to make a dime with her characters. I don’t think she was going after Oberon specificly. If anything specific, I would imagine it would be a zinger at he Church and School of Wicca which has in the past made some very anti-gay statements and has reciently been associated with a real life Hogwarts. But chances are it was just more to antagonize the religious right.
What ever the reason, I am glad to see the woman has a sense of humor and continues to upset people.
