One of the central themes of the series is about love and sacrifice. 
It would make sense to me that, like Lily and DD before him, Harry 
would sacrifice his life for "the greater good". Thus, through the 
power of the love that would be necessary to do such a thing, it 
would be the final destruction of Voldemort. I don't know that Harry 
*has* to die, per se, but as with the Unforgivable Curse (and the 
potion in the cave), there must be the clear intention.

Again, this is just a theory *smile*

Kathi, who is still trying to work out why DD would allow Harry to 
trust Ron & Hermione, but no one else?
