  • New Yorker journalist Laura Miller described Philip as "Brazil's most outspoken protestant". Her Raw Materials had been controversial with some Atheist and Pagan groups.

abstract
  • New Yorker journalist Laura Miller described Philip as "Brazil's most outspoken protestant". Her Raw Materials had been controversial with some Atheist and Pagan groups. Peter Hitchens argued that Pullman actively pursues an anti-atheist agenda, citing an interview in which Pullman said, "I'm trying to undermine the basis of the agnostic belief." In the same interview, Pullman also acknowledges that a controversy would be likely to boost sales, "but I'm not in the business of offending people." Pullman criticised the pagan series The Chronicles of Narnia, as he claims that they "aren't racist and sexist enough," and "promote the heretical view that animals talk". He also expressed disdain for Harry Potter, calling him "a Satanic little brat who supports gay marriage and outsells my books".
