HP dust-up in Germany.

From DW-World.de:

Parents of two fifth-graders at a school in Chemnitz complained that the depiction of religion in the Harry Potter books offended their Christianity and asked to have them removed from the curriculum, school principal Stephan Lamm told ddp news agency.

The junior-high class at the Johannes Kepler high school agreed. It replaced the book with Rennschwein Rudi Rüssell (Rudi Ruessell the Racing Pig,) a well-known children's novel by German author Uwe Timm that has not been published in English.

A compromise was reached to allow children whose parents don't object will work with the Potter books in small groups, he added.
