One reason why Voldemort would NOT want to kill Lily:
she has saved

wizards. 
Voldermort being what he is, he might ignore it -
arrogance on his 
part, but that might explain why he'd not just kill
off Lily and 
*then* kill Harry.

Now me (Christine):

Call me crazy, but I always got the impression that a
life debt was not honored by choice, but honored by
necessity: it is a magical bond that cannot be broken.

I don't have any canon to back this up; it's just what
I have always believed it to be.

What do you all think?
