Alla:

Sorry for repeating myself, but I don't think that this point is  
relevant in determining Snape's culpability in Lily and James' 
deaths. Strictly my opinion of course.

But I will reply to it anyways. I don't think that such thing would 
ever happened. If Harry was just one of many children of the 
soldiers of the Light side, I don't think that they would have 
abandoned the fight, if they were promised that Harry would not be 
harmed. Here is the question of course how much you can trust 
Voldemort's word. IMO, you cannot at all.

Nevertheless, because of Snape IMO Harry is not just the ordinary 
boy of the Light side. In many aspects Harry IS the fight, without 
him Voldemort is undefeatable, so abandoning the fight IMO pretty 
much equals abandoning Harry. And Voldemort promising to not to harm 
Harry is simply not possible. Why? Because of Snape of course IMO. 

Alla,
