 By the same token, Voldermort picked Harry, so he is the one.


Alla:

Hi, Cathy!
I read Oedipus Rex and I do understand what you are saying about self-
fulfillment of the prophecy, BUT there is too much unclearness with 
the Rowling's prophecy yet.

I suspect that it will turn out to be different than prophecies from 
greek tragedies. As such, freedom of choice will play some part in 
it. It is possible that prophecy was imsinterpreted somehow, IMO.

I don't exclude the possibility that Neville maybe the one at the 
end, if only to see the disbelieving look at Dumbledore's face. :o) 
And it will be a good plot twist and Harry will not be any less of a 
hero, IMO.

He fought Voldie how many times by now? Yes, I love Neville and would 
be delighted to see him finish up Voldie.


Having said all that, I would not bet much on that possibility coming 
true, unfortunately
