>Not everyone agrees with the fact that Snape is a horrible guy.
Otherwise our Snape bashing and Snape defending sessions would have
died out pretty fast. :o)<
Betsy:
I think the argument is a matter of degree. A sort of how horrible
is horrible. For example you say:
>>Alla:
>And even if I forget my doubts whether Snape now really thinks that
murdering people is a bad thing, I would still think that those who
abuse children for their pleasure are not "moral" people.<
Betsy:
And I say, I really don't think Snape *abuses* children. Being
snarky and scary and demanding though horrible is *not* abuse. At
least in my book. But I know we disagree on this -- and probably
always will. :) But it does make for some interesting discussions,
and I do wonder if by the end of the series one of the "sides" will
have to come around. Who knows, this debate may go on *forever*!! :D
