Hi everyone,

This is my first day with this group, but I am already glad I joined after 
reading all the great insights!  My opinion about this is that there was 
some sort of prophecy and we just don't know what it is yet.  At the end of 
Book 1, Harry asks Dumbledore why Voldemort wants him dead, and Dumbledore 
replies that alas, he cannot answer that question.  But that when Harry is 
older he will learn the truth.  So Dumbledore knows, but he is just keeping 
his mouth shut for now.

Thanks,
Melissa
