>The thing is, I can't see why Harry, or anybody else, thinks that  
for Harry to kill Voldemort would constitute murder.

I suposse (in this particular case) if it is not in self-defense, it 
is considered as an execution, so murder.  It depends on if you 
consider executions murders or not, but as I do, I understand the 
listies that use that word.  

I've also seen expressed by listies that merely knowing they had 
been the cause for a death would affect them deeply, so it is 
another motive to resource to the word murder as a means of 
rejecting the idea of being forced to kill because of a prophecy.

<snip> when Harry has to talk to _someone,_ and ends up confiding in 
the closest thing he has to a real mother: Molly Weasley.  I think 
Molly might be just the person to get his head on straight.

Evil!Molly? It reminds me of The Retun of the Jedi, with the Emperor 
telling Luke to kill Dartie and join his dark side.
