  And since we already sort of know that SS was 
involved with LV, DE's and the dark arts, why tempt
him?  Sort of 
like asking an alcoholic to run a pub...


Jim imagines:
Can you imagine Snape as the DADA?  Think of the way
he treats 
Neville and Harry in Potions, then transfer that
teaching method to 
DADA!  

Neville would never have gained confidence like he did
from Lupin and 
Harry would have been truly tortured learning to
resist the 
Unforgivable Curses. 

No, Snape would hurt the DADA program (students) more
than he would 
help it.

The real Moody OTOH.  Now there is a DADA Professor!

Mo now,

I agree.  I think DD wants as many students to learn
about DADA in order to ensure he has a bunch of
students ready to fight and defend themselves against
DE and LV.  DD knew that LV would rise again, and he
wants to do everything to ensure that the students are
protected.

Since many of the kids dislike Snape, they also have
an inderect displaced dislike of potions too.  It
wouldn't be wise to put Snape as DADA teacher because
the kids may not be willing to learn and work as hard
as they would, say, for a teacher they liked and
respected (i.e. Lupin)
