> 8. The first prophecy is just not true! Voldemort has been living
for a whole year, even though Harry survives. So yes, "one can live
while the other survives." Is this just a case of sloppy wording
(Should the prophecy read: they cannot both be alive for more than
three years [HP5,6,7] after their first confrontation?), or is it a
cover for some big secret? >>
Please keep in mind I'm not a big fan of OotP... I'm spoiled by fanfic
novels (of quality and longer than the real novels) written for
adults.... however, that being said I read OotP in less than 10
hours.. heh... so I'm still a fan.
The only question I saw that the answer was painfully obvious was
number 8.... if "One cannot live while the other survives" and
they're obviously both living, perhaps living isn't so much referring
to the physical beating of a heart and bodily functions, and is more
related to quality of life. For example, Harry cannot live in peace
while Voldemort is alive, and neither can Voldemort.
