Gwen's response: 

 I interpreted this scene in the same way as Rebecca.
 That at some point Snape had agreed to keep his Unbreakable Vow and
kill Dumbledore.  Then, for an unknown reason, he changes his mind and
cannot agree to do so any longer (i.e. anymore).  Interpreted in this
way, it would lead to the conclusion that his resistance to contuining
was because he did not want to have to AK Dumbledore, while Dumbledore
was attempting to convince him that he must if necessary. 
Unfortunately, and fortunately (from the debating standpoint) this
scene could be read either way.

Snogging has been around for a long time, it's just not used that much
in America.  It's a common phrase in the UK, besically equivalent to
making out.
