Pete Vere leads the charge against "The Golden Compass"

Pete Vere is a contributor to several publications including "The Wanderer" and "National Catholic Register". He has co-written book with Sandra Meisel on Phillip Pullman entitled, The Pied Piper of Atheism. He has also written several good articles, including, Pullman and the Seduction of Children. He says,
Meet Philip Pullman, the man whom English author Peter Hitchens refers to as “the most dangerous author in Britain.” He writes children’s literature that mocks God and ridicules church. “He is the anti-Lewis,” Hitchens states, referencing C.S. Lewis’s classic Chronicles of Narnia series. He adds that Pullman is “the one the atheists would have been praying for, if atheists prayed.” Yet, unlike most atheists who attack God through stuffy academic treatises that will never be read by the general public, Pullman uses children’s literature to foment rebellion against God.
