bring Voldemort back to life, but in the end I believe this will 
also prove to be his undoing.  Of course we'll have to wait and see 
what JKR has to say about all this!

Maybe when Harry experiences love hurting, say when that significant 
person dies in OoP, Voldemort will feel Harry's pain, the loss of 
losing someone you love, and perhaps guilt because I'm sure Harry 
will feel guilty from now on when a loved one dies.  Voldemort will 
feel think that he is putting Harry in a vulnerable position to know 
when he is most weak and who makes him weak.  Yet not knowing that 
he, too, is putting himself in that vulnerable position.  Making him 
human, which he doesn't want to be, and weaker.  IMO, this will kill 
him, slowly, but unknowingly.  If there's a way for love to kill, 
that is.
