I agree with you I think Harry should be part of the order.  After 
all he has already had to do a lot of fighting against. LV.  As far 
as the prophecy goes  I think that only Dumbledore and Trelawny knows 
(and I don't think she is aware that she knows as she didn't know 
anything about her most recent prophecy that she told Harry) and the 
ohters in the order just know that there is a prophecy that needs 
gaurded or it will be their undoing, I think they all trust 
Dumbledore enough as to not question anything else except the need to 
protect it.

Anyway that is what I think.
