Hi everyone! I rarely post but I have recently started the sixth
book for the third time and while reading it, it made me ponder the
question for those of you who believe Harry Potter is a horcrux, I
have yet to make up my mind on the issue, can a horcrux destroy
another horcrux. In book two the spirit of Voldemort obviously was
trying to kill Harry Potter. If Harry is in fact a horcrux, can
another element of Voldemort's own spirit or soul destroy or be used
to destroy another element of itself? or is the diary horcrux
merely on survival mode and its thinking is "either i destroy you or
you destroy me"- a survival of the fittest mentality.
also, at the begining of book six in Snape's house, while discussing
Dumbledore's biggest weakness, he mentions that the wise wizard is
getting old and "has since sustained a serious injury because his
reactions are slower than they once were" (HBP pg. 31). Does Snape
know about the horcruxes? Would Dumbledore have trusted him enough
to tell him about them? If Snape is bad,evil, or a Voldy supporter,
and was told about it then it is possible that he has told the dark
lord and Harry's chance of survival are very grim and his death is
in sight. if Snape is good, and Dumbledore was right all along in
having faith in Snape, then Snape potentially knows the steps that
need to be made in order to defeat He who must not be named!!!
hope someone knows more insight to this than i do.
sincerely
john
