I hope your right, but I was just thinking that Dumbledore's words
could be JKR's way of giving DD his last confession.
Dumbledore has been set-up by JKR to be almost Saint-like from the
first book. But is he?
In every book there is always someone who is revealed to be someone or
something else. The good guys are the bad guys and vise versa; and
people are always using polyjuice to change from one person to
another.
Moody is Crouch Jr., Harry and Ron are Crab and Goyle, Grab and Goyle
are girls. Tom Riddle is the perfect student and Hagrid let the
monster out. (And forget about Snape, he annoys me just as much as
Trelawny's prophecies.)
We are so busy considering everyone else's motives that we never even
look into Dumbledore's role in all this. Where did he come from, and
what is his stake in all this?
Was he given another chance by someone? Is that why he gives everyone
else second chances? Was his soul saved? Is part of his penance that
he has to convert others? Does Dumbledore represent St. Paul?
