Please forgive me if this has already been mentioned - I do not think 
so but it is almost impossible to keep up with the list due to the 
amount of posts.

One of the most important themes for HBP is love in different forms. 
Earlier in the series, we have heard countless times that love is some 
kind of ancient magic, too, which was used by Lily to save Harry. 
Apparently, death was necessary for her to secure this magic. So, what 
if Dumbledore has ordered Snape to kill him? The rationale could be 
that he then can by loving Harry as a father (or some kind of 
ancestor) and die for him, thereby preserving his love somehow and 
thus manage to save Harry once more? Harry can in the future be the 
Boy Who Lived Twice? Dumbledore's also told LV 1) that death is not 
the worst thing that can happen to you and 2) there is some magic he 
does not understand. So, love could be a powerful weapon in the war, 
especially if the dark side does not know how to use it.
