In Response to Pippin's entire rant "Did Lupin Kill Sirius (long)" (I would 
quote the message but there are no specific parts I am speaking about and it 
would be too long to quote the whole thing so this is in response to 
Pippin's entire thought)

I give you credit, that is very well thought out.

However JKR says constantly that Lupin is her favorite character 
and as a writer I can say that favorites become like your children, 
something you don't want to hurt. However, he may be her favorite character 
because he's so evil in  the end.

Don't get me wrong, I Love Lupin! (And Sirius!) Not saying that 
Lupin's gonna be evil just saying that this is a well thought out theory.

I commend you!

However, I think you forgot to mention one thing: Why when they 
were trying to find a Secret Keeper for Lily and James did Sirius and James 
cut Remus out of the loop? 

In PoA Remus even says to Sirius "YOu thought I was the traitor I suppose?"
Now why would they think Remus is the traitor when they had broken 
wizarding law for him and become unregistered Animagus? When they had 
betrayed Dumbledore's trust to stay with their friend? (I can only imagine 
the hell poor James went through trying to explain *that* to Lily, "yes 
darling we're all Unregistered Illegal Animagus and Remus is a werewolf.")

But I disgress, why would they mistrust Remus enough to cut him 
completely out of the loop?

What did he do to make them wary of him? Where was he all that time 
between Lily and James' death and becoming a teacher for Dumbledore, what 
was he doing?

There are questions that need answering.

Blue Eyes (also a major LOTR fan as I suppose Pippin is by her name) (I 
guess great minds like the same movies and books)
