I hope I don't get yelled at but the veil also has some Biblical 
 implications(maybe not for JKR).  It just what I thought of when I 
read it.  The veil in the Old Testament seperated the holy of holy 
places for the rest of worshipers.  Only the priest could go in. If 
a non-priest went in, they tied a rope to him/her so they could pull 
them out when they died.  The death was associated with the thought 
that it was too much to handle to go "beyond the veil."  In the NT  
the veil was lifted because of Jesus Christ.  I am sure that the 
people who write the good stuff about HP and Christianity have 
already thought of this.
