Potter Potter Potter Potter - A Snape! A Snape!

It's not a spoiler if it's just speculation, but still, read on at your own risk.

WGL and I, w/ a little help from JT, decided we know how Year 7 is going to end. Firstly, she said two major characters are going to die, right? Well one's obviously gotta be Voldemort. Harry has to be the one to kill Voldie according to the prophesies, and as the main character he can't be the other one. It's going to be Snape: he will die giving Harry the assist on Voldie. It's just perfect, we've been wondering all along which side he's on. He *has* to redeem himself after the acts of the last one, and the best way he can do this is to give his life in the process.

Snape is Judas. He's the inside job. He's the necessary betrayer, his actions required by the victim of his betrayal. I guess the only question in the end is whether Voldie or Dumbledore is Jesus. (If not both.)

And speaking of Dumbledore being Jesus, he's not dead. Or he's coming back. (A) They never found a body. (B) His familiar is the phoenix, who dies and rises again. Ooh, I think I'm on to something here, w/ the death and rebirth and Jesus imagery... Is Harry Paul or something then?

Dumbledore is Gandalf.

Except that I read since posting this that Rowling says he won't pull a Gandalf. It was in the Wikipedia page on Snape, I think.

I never saw a description of the body, but yeah, they did have a funeral and burial. Hm.
