Avada Kedavra /Slytherins

Hi to all! OK, this is the first post I've made in a bit since I've 
literally been running around like a chicken with my head cut off. :) 
Several thoughts came up in my mind as of recently:

Avada Kedavra:
Why is this curse so bad? (Well, other than the fact that it kills 
people.) I mean all the other Unforgivable Curses violate a person in 
some way. Crucius Curse brings on unbearable amounts of pain, while 
Imperius Curse lets a wizard/witch control another's mind & 
activities. Maybe it steals souls...confused? Come on & take the 
journey with me. In GoF, we "see" Cedric killed by AK. But later on, 
due to Priori Incantem, we "see" him (and a host of others) again--
but in a ghost-like form. Maybe these aren't actually just "ghosts" 
of his AK's performed, but these people's actual souls. When the AK 
spell is performed, there is a flash of green light that comes out of 
the wand used. Maybe the light acts like a black hole of some sort & 
takes the person's soul right out of his/her body before they even 
hit the ground. Hmmm...IDK for sure. But hey, it's a start.

Slytherins:
Quick question: Are all Slytherins truly "evil"? Earlier toady, my 
friend Dana was at my house & took a test for a Sorting Hat, but she 
got sorted into Slytherin.(I got sorted into Ravenclaw. ;) Anyhoo...) 
Mind you, she's not a bad person, but she can be really determined & 
ambitious when she's working on something. Isn't that how Slytherins 
are supposed to be? Ambitious, hard-working? But back to my point, 
can kind people be placed in Slytherin? But then too, we don't have 
good models to go on, do we? (Malfoy, Crabbe, Goyle, Voldie, etc.) Is 
everybody in Slytherin so mean and spiteful like Harry "shows" us? 
Please help a poor girl and her friend out.

Slytherin?!" & rolling her eyes)
