I think we will need to agree to disagree. I apology here if I cause 
offense but a word of warning.

JKR knows Lily's and Petunia's blood lines even knows if there was an 
affair.  JKR has repeatedly stated that Lily and Petunia are Muggles 
(no magic blood).  It's fun to speculate where JKR will take us in 
book 6 & 7 but we need to keep ourselves grounded in the world JKR 
has created.  When JKR gives us tidbits in interviews and on her web 
site we need to adjust our theories or we will suffer big 
disappointments when we read books 6 & 7.
