Trelawny really bugs me...

I know Trelawny has been discussed many times (by me and others) but 
I've been rereading the books and this character really annoys me. 
With so much talk about people being in charge of their own destinies 
and making the "right" choices, why does Dumbledore put so much faith 
into this woman's prophecies? Especially, when they can be read in so 
many different ways. (The daily horoscope is just as vague--although 
not as grim.)  

Sometimes I even wonder if someone is using this woman to keep 
Dumbledore and Voldemort busy/preoccupied while they make their own 
plans. Could she be someone's puppet? (Could Lucius and Snape be 
making their own plans?) 
 
Regardless, I hope that Harry makes the decision to disregard 
Trelawny's words and follow his own destiny.
