Why Voldemort wanted to spare Lily

What if the same thing happened to Lily and Voldemort? What if Lily
once showed mercy to Voldemort, and he had that debt with her?
Dumbledore said it's a powerful connection. Maybe, because of a
prophecy or something, Voldy had to kill James and Harry, but
*couldn't* kill Lily. Then, when he actually got to murder her, it
all turned back to him, because he had broken the magical bond.
That'd be why he wanted to spare her in the first place. I mean, the
guy's a big time baddy, has killed lots of people, why would he care
about murdering an extra one? He finished Cedric off without thinking
twice.

My personal favourite explanation for Voldie needing to kill Harry and James 
follows... it's from a post at a forum, with a few alterations by mio! Maybe 
if we mix the two theories together?

WHY Voldemort wanted to kill Harry in the first place, and WHY his mum 
didn't matter!

HARRY IS THE HEIR OF GODRIC GRYFFINDOR!

Think about it, he's IN Gryffindor, he pulled Godric's sword out of the 
Sorting Hat, His parents
LIVED in GODRIC'S HOLLOW, when he got his wand, it shot RED and GOLD sparks, 
which are the
colours for Gryffindor, and he was born under Leo, the constellation of the 
lion, which is the
animal for Gryffindor!

PLUS - Think about it, Voldemort would want the heir of Gryffindor dead, 
because he is the
decendent of Slytherin, AND why else would he not want to kill Lily? Lily 
had NO RELATION to
Godric Gryffindor at all! So really, is this all coincidence? I DON'T THINK 
SO! Harry and James
are related to Godric Gryffindor, who must of had alot of power to make the 
Sorting Hat and all
that, and how else would James get to be head boy if he wasn't REALLY 
powerful and smart? He was
in detention all the time! He HAD to have been extremely powerful and smart 
to think up all the
tricks and everyting! How else would he have been able to make the 
Maurader's Map AND become
illegal Animagi WHILE HE WAS STILL IN SCHOOL?

So THAT is why Voldemort wanted to kill Harry and James!
