may be able to salve his conscience by saying he didn't betray James
and Lily directly, but I do  think it probable that he pointed Voldy in 
the direction of Peter or already knew that Peter was in Voldy's pocket.

 

My reply:

That's just really a ludricrous thought.  You guys aren't happy with Lupin, he's not evil enough so now you have to make a dead person more evil. I truly do not believe he did that to Lily or James, come on!  Do you honestly think that JK Rowlings would talk so fondly of Sirius if this had been the case?  I think the story we were told is the true one.  I don't think he meant any harm on his friends.  I think that James and Lily were the smart, and loyal friends that we are told they were.  At the same time James was of pure ancestory we see it their is bigotry, even in the Weasley family and if you want sources I will source you, it is likely that they really believed that Lupin had been a  traitor.  It's a sad irony that it is not the case.  

I truly believe that James and Lily had every  reason to trust Sirius implicity more than we will probably ever see in the books.  That is what the bond between two best friends is stronger than that of the others, you do trust some friends more than others.  These were two boys that were beyond friends they were brothers they had spent not only their days in the Gryffindor towers together but also in the summers too.  I realize family can betray but I refuse to believe that Sirius did...this is a man that would probably do anything to hold onto the family that he has formed on his own.
