I wonder to what extent Harry may be just a pawn in Dumbledore's 
plans.  I'm sure D. does care about him, but if he needs Harry's 
blood & god knows what else for some desparate scheme to defeat 
Voldemort, how far would he go?  He seems to be all-knowing most of 
the time, except when it would prevent Harry from facing Voldemort, 
again and again.  Is he deliberately putting the kid in harms way?  
And I just thought - did he have a hand in Harry's initial 
confrontation with V.?  You would think he would never do such a 
thing, but if he thought (because of a prediction?) it would save the 
world from Voldemort would he sacrifice the Potters? 

Dumbledore studied the 12 uses of dragon's blood, maybe he knows 
something about Harry's blood that is the only way to destroy You-
know-who, and is willing to use it for the greater good.

This way we can be paranoid about his intentions without Dumbledore 
actually being evil (which I doubt).
