   Of course it was. Harry himself argues that seeing into Voldy's 
mind could be useful. I'm not sure the possibilty of him being 
manipulated by false visions occurs to the more experienced wizards, 
certainly never occurs to Harry.

   I also think that Snape's being unable to face Harry after the 
pensieve incident or continue the lessons is understandable. 
Apparently so did Dumbledore.
