A school has banned the singing of songs from hit Netflix film KPop Demon Hunters over concerns they are not in keeping with its "Christian ethos".
Lilliput Church of England Infant School in Poole, Dorset, sent a message to parents on Friday saying some members of the community are "deeply uncomfortable" with references to demons.
It said this was because they "associate them with spiritual forces opposed to God and goodness".

I'm baffled. The songs take the perspective of demon hunters. What does this chap think Christians do? It's biblical. I't's new testament biblical. It's exorcism, Christian churches pay people to go round afflicted households doing it for a living.
"He called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out impure spirits and to heal every disease and sickness." (Matthew 10:1)
... he rebuked the impure spirit. 'You deaf and mute spirit,' he said, 'I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.'" (Mark 9:25)
"And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons." (Mark 16:17)
"Paul became so annoyed that he turned around and said to the spirit, 'In the name of Jesus Christ I command you to come out of her!' At that moment the spirit left her." (Acts 16:18)
A Church of England Infant School should be delighted at the direction its charges are taking.
We are Hunters, voices strong
Slaying demons with our song
Fix the world and make it right.
When darkness finally meets the light.
