Yes, exactly! I have trouble with the idea of Harry being a horcrux.  
Personally I don't think so - it would not make sense. I toyed with the 
idea of Harry's scar being a horcrux but then realised its not possible 
because the scar was a result of the maternal love protecting Harry 
from harm and defeating LV by backfiring his curse.  So how could Harry 
have ever become a horcrux? It doesn't logically follow.  So, that 
leaves the question as to why Harry is the one prophesised to defeat 
LV?  JKR hinted at the link between Harry and LV in one of her 
interviews but of course didn't elaborate as this is the heart of the 
story and yet to be revealed until the final book.  Can't comment any 
further as to what it might be - I'm rereading HBP at the mo, so 
something else may click.....
