Waaaaay back in post 38511, before John Granger's article and OoP were
available, we had some fun with our limited alchemical knowledge.

In a nutshell, we determined that the reason Voldemort's AK rebounded
was that Harry is the living embodiment of the Philosopher's Stone. [...]

Anyway, I recommend the Stoned!Harry thread for the sheer fun of it
(not just because I'm in it).

I totally agree that Harry is the living embodiment of the Philosopher's
Stone. William Truderung compiled a condensed version of all the
Stoned!Harry posts. It's 56099 and consists of 15 000 words. Saves a lot of
searching! Thanks again Bill.

I haven't commented on the Stoned!Harry theory because it just seems so
obvious. I have often said this in a different way. Harry symbolises the
immortal part of us. Deep in the heart is that seed of the causeless cause
which transcends time and space and is waiting for us to dedicate our lives
totally to it. In the soil of purity (Lily) and deep longing for the Water
of Life (James) it will grow in grace in the sight of men and God. The evil
in us and in the world around us (Herod, Voldemort) will seek to destroy it
but what the Architect of the Universe has made is indestructible.

I would really love to see some more discussion on this.
