Predictions

Before I make any predictions, I'd like to say hi to everyone. Been 
lurking around for a few days. Rather enjoyed the debates. 

> Sphause's predictions, by the numbers:
> 1. Dumbledore will die (Fairly Obvious)

This I agree with. I think it may even occur in the very next book. I 
don't think it will be at Voldemorts hands though. 

> 2. Harry, Ron and Hermione will not die (Duh!)

I don't see Harry dying. I think one of their number will. I'm almost 
sure Neville will die in some heroic stand to make sure that our trio 
of heroes survive long enough to win the final battle. He will go 
out, much like his parents, in a blaze of glory. As for our trio, as 
I said above, one will die. My guess is, like others, that it will be 
Ron.

> 3. Snape will be a hero
> 4. Snape will give his life to save Harry's
> 5. If Snape does not die, he will become the headmaster.

Snape will be a hero. As an earlier poster said, it will be an odd 
sort of hero. It will not be in some glorious battle and, this is 
just a guess, no one will know he's dead for quite some time. He will 
be missing. His death, will indirectly save Harry and friends. He 
will NOT become headmaster.

> 6. If Snape does dies, McGonagall will become the headmaster.

Unlike others, I do NOT see McGonagall being on the casualty list. I 
do see her taking over as headmaster. 

> 7. Voldemort will die at Harry's hand never to return.

Of course.

> 8. Ron and Hermione will be an item.

As much as I hate it, I have to agree. 

I will add my own prediction to these. 

9) Harry and Ginny Weasley will become a couple briefly. But Ginny 
Weasley will sacrifice her life in the fight to come.

10) By the end of book 7, Hagrid will be a wizard. Filch will not. :)
