This is for the people who think that time travel will happen again...
Dumbledore seems to know more than he should at times throughout the
series. I do not think that he is a seer, but what if he knows
certain events because he has lived through them already. (I know
that at times he seems to make mistakes and he admits to those
mistakes.) But, lets say that future events from book 6 and 7 have
already taken place--and it ends badly for the OOTP. There are many
causualties on both sides. At least one of the Weasley children
survives (Ron Weasley?). Ron has lost most of his family and perhaps
Harry as well. Dumbledore then hands Ron the time travel hour glass
and tells him to go way back in time to change certain events.
(Dumbledore tells Ron a secret he has never told anyone.) Ron goes
way back in time, goes to Hogwarts school as a student again, but his
name is now Dumbledore (DD did have red hair once right?). He could
even go farther back than that if he is also Nicolas Flamel since he
could live for quite some time. (Flamel has a wife right? Could it be
MaGonagall--aka Hermione?) It would be funny if MaGonagall gave
Hermione the hour glass in the 3rd book to later prepare her for real
time travel. (Rowling even turns Hermione as a cat in the series--a
clue that she is MaGonagall!--this idea could only work if the kids
learn how to become animagi in book 6 or 7 (just like James Potter's
crew did). Ron grows up (and watches events unfold, trying all the
while to alter certain events along the way. Since he is changing
history certain events will unfold the way they originally did while
other events will change the historical timeline. (I hate movies and
books about time travel so I'm giving this idea my best shot.) Many
people believe that Dumbledore is playing puppet master with the kids-
-and he may.
Luna is a true Seer and knows what Ron will become, hence: "Weasley
is our King!"
Dumbledore believes that Snape is loyal and maybe he really knows
this. (But DD may change something in the timeline inadvertantly
losing Snape's loyalty--DD may be surprised in the end by Snape.)
Ron also has a habit in the series to joke around and say things that
actually happen later on. Could this be a clue from Rowling about
Ron's identity?
I'm too tired to think anymore,
