Whaaat? What does whether or not Dumbledore is an animagus have to do 
with anything? Also, the idea that he's a bumblebee simply because 
that's what his name translates as is a little . . . unbelievable. To 
me, anyway. Bumblebees are kinda interesting but they are not 
powerful, and I think Dumbledore would have a much more intelligent, 
powerful animagus. I think what his name means is that he's gentle on 
the outside -- after all, bees are kinda pretty and round and fuzzy --
 but you better watch out for his sting. I do agree with whoever said 
that he's deeper than people give him credit for.

If JKR makes Voldemort Harry's father/uncle/grandfather/ANYTHING I 
will be very upset. That would be very uncreative and stolen right 
out of Star Wars. And every fan who ever spent time thinking about it 
would have thought of it already. That said, I do not think 
Dumbledore is all-knowning. That would make him the canon equivalent 
of a Mary Sue.
