New Theory about Why Sirius Played Trick on Snape

Not to scare him, as his defenders insist. Not to kill him, as Snape 
insists. But to have Lupin bite him, making Snape a werewolf. Maybe, 
Sirius thought that arrogant, bigoted Snape deserved to see the world 
from the point of the down and out like Lupin. This could especially 
work if Snape was close on Lupin's track, and had almost figured it 
out. Now, that's a way of silencing somebody. And to Sirius's mind, 
it's not as bad as we might think. After all, his best friend, Lupin, 
was a werewolf, and that didn't spoil HIS life. (Though, of course, we 
know that it did... later.) Think about it.
