Me (Laursia):

The only problem that I have with this is that therefore Voldemort 
must consider many thousands of wizards his equal. In fact, if 
Voldemort considers people equal by not considering them equal then 
every wizard in the world (minus a couple) are equal to him. ;-)

Although, I can see how this theory might work. You'll just have to 
tweak the definition of 'equal' a bit. Equal to what??? Equal in 
*powers* to the Dark Lord??? We seem to have assumed this. Or is it 
equal in something else... Damn non-specific prophecies!!! They can 
mean anything...
