How does Philip Pullman's book The Golden Compass attack religion?

Answer

Pullman has made controversial statements, telling The Washington Post in 2001 he was "trying to undermine the basis of Christian belief." In 2003, he said that compared to the Harry Potter series, his books had been "flying under the radar, saying things that are far more subversive than anything poor old Harry has said. My books are about killing God."

Pullman has stated on SEVERAL occasions that it is his INTENTION AND PURPOSE TO UNDERMINE THE BASIS OF CHRISTIANITY!

Answer

I used to think the above wasn't true, but looking at interviews that Pullman has posted on his own site... I think this person may have a point. Pullman seems to object to the monopoly that Christianity has claimed on morals, good and evil, the creation of the world... everything, really. I don't know if he's out to destroy Christianity, but he certainly doesn't hold with it himself.


Please note that the novel in question was published under the name Northern Lights in the United Kingdom and Australia and The Golden Compass in the United States.
