Tonks:

I am coming into this discussion rather late. I have been threating to write a book about the Harry Potter books for sometime now. I see all sorts of Christian symbols in the books. I see the whole series as a retelling of the Gospels.

As to the discussion on Dumbledore and the tower. I wasn't able to read all of the post. I will just say this. Good Friday has never been the same for me. Now I see Jesus on the cross and DD on the tower, and it breaks my heart twice as much. DD is under the skull, that it the place where Jesus died. John Granger does a nice job of suming up a lot of the rest of it, with the cave and rest. He has a website.
