[HPforGrownups] Future sacrifices?

Just thought of something else, too.....

We had this discussion in my class today at school.  We are at Chapter 18 in CoS and as we muddled through Chapter 17 (the Heir of Slytherin) we were talking about *WHY* we thought Voldemort was such an unloving, uncaring person.  I was making the argument about him being 'abandoned' by his muggle father before he was born and one of my students literally yells at me saying "Don't be making excuses for him.  Lord Voldemort is just plain evil, Allyson.  He needs no excuses for that."  I just sat there sort of stunned.  Made me glad I had instilled this type of thinking in these kids, but I still thought, WOW!

I, too, love to hate Snape, although I don't really hate him.  There is something more about him that I think when the story is told will make people go "Ahhhh" but then again, my mom always calls me the "Champion of the Underdog"!

    Hi, I also have been lurking here for a little while, and found this 
question to be worth throwing my two cents in. From reading these books I 
have come to the conclusion that Voldemort is not a very nice person, and not 
a very forgiving person. This leads me to believe that one of the characters 
to be killed off will be Prof. Snape.
While we may not feel the affection toward Snape that we do Ron, Hermione, 
Hagrid or the Weasley twins, I at least have love to hate him. Besides with 
him out of the picture it would present Voldemort with an opportunity to get 
someone into Hogwarts where it may hurt the most, in charge of the Slytherin 
house. For instance L. Malfoy.
