3. Dumbledore is sure that Harry IS the person the prophecy talks
about. Are you?
 
Vmonte: Hmmm. I'm not sure, and I hate the idea of a prophecy.


Alla:

I WAS dissapointed when I learned about Prophecy, because just as 
you are, I have huge trouble connecting "predetermined future" and " 
free choice" together. I think Magda posted very interesting post 
some time ago about how "prophecy" and "free choice" can be 
connected ( self-fulfilling prohecy). Nevertheless, I am still 
dissapointed in the Prophecy as plot device. I thought that since 
theme of choices is basically the main one through the books, JKR 
will just not do it at all. :)

That is why I am at least hoping that Dumbledore misinterepreted it 
in a  major way, survives till the end and in  for a big surprise.

JMO,

Alla
