How will the non-Harry Potter fans take to the plot in the Deathly Hallows? SPOILERS [View All]

I read the book. Loved it, but even though I didn't know how she was going to get there, I suspected that J.K. Rowlings was going to have Harry accept his fate, and lay down his life for the "greater good." And I couldn't help thinking then that the rabid-Christians would not like it, because there would be similarities to the way that Jesus Christ also willingly gave up his life to benefit all mankind. After I read it, everything was written in a way that I felt few would miss that similiarity, but I'm not sure, so I'm asking everyone who read it to give me their p.o.v. Did anybody else see the parallel between Harry Potter accepting his fate, as Dumbledore perceived it, and Jesus Christ accepting his fate as God ordained it? The confusion over the expectations from the fatherly figure, the anxiety over the decision, and the final passive acceptance. The parallel is very strong.

Now, I loved the story and I think the writer deserves kudos, but, how long can we expect before the bible thumpers start burning the books?
