Commnets by Lilac:
> Hmmmm....I would be interested to read that interview as well.  Does
this imply that Harry is a Christ figure, who will sacrifice himself
and die to save all wizard and muggle-kind, but then rises again?  I
think I could live with that, if he does "have" to die.    Does this
mean a betrayal is in the future?  Who would his Judas be?  Does this
mean Fudge will order his demise because of political pressure from
Lucias Malfoy or the like, and then wash his hands of the whole thing,
like Pilate?  I never thought of the HP series in these terms before
because JKR hasn't had blatant Christian symbolism (ala CS Lewis
"Narnia" series) in the series.  Very interesting.....

Hummm... there is dying, then again there is dying. The two not
necessarily being the same. 

People die all the time and are brought back to life. People die on
the  operating table, and doctors bring them back to life. People get
electrocuted and by some measure, are dead, but a little CPR brings
them back.

So here's my plan-
For Voldemort to die, Harry has to die. The existance of either of
them guarantees the existence of the other. So, Harry makes the great
sacrifice and in a heroic battle with Voldemort; Voldermort kills him.
In the process Voldemort, once and for all time, destroys himself.
Dumbledore and Snape quickly rush in with all Harry's hand wringing
heartaching friends. A splash of potion, a wave of a wand, a few of
the last remaining drops of the Elixer of Life, and Harry groans,
opens his eyes, and says 'Ouch, that hurt! I'm hungry, anybody want to
grab a burger on the way back?"

Subplot - to reenforce the 'Shield of Love' given him by his mother,
another person who loves him (Harry) sacrifices his/her self to save
Harry. Example: in book 6, Harry falls in love with Ginny. Later in
book 7, Ginny throws herself in front of one of VOldemort's death
curses to save Harry. Now he has Double protection of love. Remember,
according to the New Testement (although, I'm not quoting), there is
no power greater than Love.


Heeeey! It could happen.

The Bible, the love, the sacrific, and the resurrection. Amen.

Although, the other persons idea where Harry wakes from a dream and
finds himself in the cupboard under the stair. Is pretty cool.
Especially, when he goes and checks the mail, and finds a letter from
Hogwarts, but then, that's another thread.
