Justine:
 We must remember that Snape's existence includes [snip] a pureblood 
superiority mindset, and, most  importantly, an obsession with the Dark Arts....  

Magda:
Well, we don't know that really.  
Sirius Black said twice (OOTP and GOF) that Snape was into the DarkArts but 
no one else has....

Chancie:
Acutally if I remember corectly, Sirius isn't the only one who claimes that 
Snape is in to the Dark Arts.   In SS, when Harry first arrives at Hogwarts, he 
asks Percy who was Quirill talking to.  Percy tells him that it's Snape, "he 
teaches potions, but everyone know's  that it's the dark arts he fancys.  He's 
been after Quirll's job for ages..." sorry if that's not an exact quote, I 
don't have my SS book with me, but I know it's at lest a very close quote.  From 
this state ment it appears to me that Snapes infactuation with the Dark Arts 
is a fairly well known fact.
