before (we don't yet know how) and the couple fear for their safety
as well as that of their child. They turn to Dumbledore... and
James. The marriage with Potter is hastily arranged; casual friends
and family believing they "had" to get married. It's hoped that this
arrangement affords protection for Lily and the baby, provides James
and Sirius the chance to be together without revealing their truth to
the world and allows Snape, losing his family for the sake of their
survival, to continue his dangerous work.

Alla:
Please forgive me for snipping most of your post, but I am afraid JKR
already destroyed the part of this theory, which makes Harry Snape's
child.
Here is the question and answer from her website:
"Question:
Voldemort is Harry's real father/grandfather/close relative of some
description
Answer
No, no, no, no, no. You lot have been watching much too much Star
Wars. James is DEFINITELY Harry's father. Doesn't everybody Harry
meets say 'you look just like your father'? And hasn't Dumbledore
already told Harry that Voldemort is the last surviving descendent of
Salazar Slytherin? Just to clarify - this means that Harry is NOT a
descendent of Salazar Slytherin."
I think the sentence "James is DEFINITELY Harry's father" answers it,
no?
Alla,
who used to love "Snape as Harry father" fanfiction stories, but who
is very happy that such thing is not going to happen in canon. :-)
