Carol:

If you can present evidence of fear and loathing of the Dark Arts on 
James's part at this point, other than Sirius's after the fact 
attribution of that hatred to him,I will reconsider this position. 

Alla:

I think the HINT of James already hating Dark Arts and especially 
pureblood ideology IS there, namely his reaction to Snape calling 
Lily a "Mudblood"

"What?" yelped James. "I'd NEVER call you a - you- know what!" - 
OOP, p.648.


Carol:

But even if James did hate the Dark Arts, his treatment of Severus 
in this scene is inexcusable bullying.


Alla:

True, but I see no reason to exclude his hate of DA as ONE of the 
reasons for such bullying.
