Why is DD the only wizard Voldemort feared?  


Becki:

At least in America, not so much now, but years ago, people used the 
phrase, "God-fearing", when referring to being a "good-Christian".  
The term, really does not mean being afraid of God, but the "fear" 
portion means more like , respect, honor, reverence.

Perhaps the term *feared* may be applied here.  Not that Voldy is 
afraid of DD, in the scaredy-cat sense,  but in a twisted way, has 
the respect, honor, reverence for him, at least for his abilities.  
The supreme nemesis.  

Becki (who bets a bundle that there was a prophecy about Voldys 
upcoming birth).
