No, Pippin THAT was of course pure speculation of mine, but I was 
definitely
trying to point out that the idea that without Snape blabbing to
Voldemort the contents of the Prophecy, Voldemort would have killed
Potters anyway does not have much canon support either, IMO.

I was just pointing out that IF Voldemort was hunting Potters before
Prophecy, then he would have made them the preferential targets
after that, BUT even though it is quite possible that they were 
targets, we don't know that for sure, IMO.

I am sorry, but I think that Snape committed something, which could
not be easily dismissed by him, no matter how hard he would tried,
that is if he has a conscience anyways which from time to time I
sincerely doubt.

LOLOL! Easy? Just keep lying to Dumbledore year after year after
year.

I mean, really Snape fooled either Dumbledore or Voldemort, right?

I vote for Dumbledore :)

JMO of course,

Alla.
