belonging to the (faithful)Phoenix?

Very, very important question:

Are and were all the members of the Order of the Phoenix once in
Gryffindor house (loyalty to Dumbledore)? This one could be
interesting given Snape is part of the Order.

So what is the connection between Dumbledore, Fawkes and Harry?

Brenda:

Apologies for bringing up the obvious point... but there is the 
Fawkes' tail in Harry's wand core...

The thing is, same thing goes for Voldemort too, he shares the same 
core as well.  So if you extend it far enough, you could say there is 
a connection between: Dumbledore, Harry, Voldemort, Salazar, and of 
course the Fawkes itself.

Phoenix is supposed to be the symbol of immotality, correct?  So who 
knows Fawkes had belonged to 
originally.  ::cough::GodricGryffindor::cough::  I think this ties in 
nicely with the "Dumbledore is the Heir of Gryffindor" theory.
