Wow, I'm really starting to buy into this theory.  Usually they're a little
too far afield of canon for my taste, but this one seems to have some really
solid support.  I just have to add one more canon support that I found on my
last reread of GoF, which was perfectly timed to coincide with the emergence
of this theory.  Okay, I admit it, I was reading it last night...

This is from the American hardback of GoF, pg. 311:
"Mr. Ollivander spent much longer examining Harry's wand than anyone else's.
Eventually, however, he made a fountain of wine shoot out of it, and handed
it back to Harry, announcing that it was still in perfect condition."

A fountain of wine?!  Like water into wine?  I wasn't raised on the New
Testament, and the symbolism there is just screaming to me, begging to be
recognized.
