Fair enough.
I'm just going by the fact that in western Europe most media reports on controversy seem to come from the States. And I suspect that the Russian/Georgian fuss might have been sparked by the initial furore in the US.
But I don't think it would have occurred to either Tolkien or Rowling that magic/fantasy content in their books would upset or offend Christians. It just isn't an issue in the environment they were both writing in.
