Dean wrote: "In brief, I suggest that in the end, Snape will be redeemed, 
Voldemort will be thereby destroyed, and the kids will carry out 
Dumbledore's mandate to go out into the world and spread the 
influence of the goodness of Love.  Because that is Dumbledore's 
message, just as it was Christ's: Love is the strongest magic there 
is."

Morgan here: I like this theory and have thought about it myself. If you use that logic, then Snape will ultimately commit suicide (as Judas did). The question then is why are the books called "Harry Potter and the  ...." My answer to this is that Harry represents the "everyman/woman" that is all of us.
