Wild HBP Theory!!!

Okey Dokey....after reading everyone's recent posts about who the HBP 
is, I have come up with a WILD!!! theory.  I mean this is REALLY 
WILD.  Even wilder than the theory that Crookshanks and Mundungus are 
one of the same : P

I read some comments about Lily's appearance and the big issue of 
Harry having Lily's eyes.  His mother's eyes.  It is emphasized in 
the books, as well as in the PoA film.  I think there is something 
very important behind this minor detail that keeps coming up.  J. 
Rowling has also described Lily's appearance as being very different 
from Petunia.  Again the eyes.  

There has also been a lot of discussion about Lily's love, being 
Harry's shield against LV.  There have been some ideas going around 
about Lily being related to LV.  Even a distant relation.  I think 
there may be some truth to that.  I think there is a relation, but 
not necessarily a BLOOD relation.  

With those thoughts, here is my theory.....

Lily and Petunia are half sisters.  I believe they have the same 
mother, but different fathers.  Petunia was born first, and her 
mother had a second child Lily, by another man (Evans).  I believe 
their mother had left Petunia's father when he started to do DARK 
magic.  He had changed, became evil.  YES, that's right....I believe 
Petunia's father is none other than the DARK Lord himself, 
Voldemort.  

Her  mother found comfort with Evans, and had Lily.  When Lily grew 
up, married James and chose to fight against Voldemort, he marked 
LILY as his target (opposed to any of the others who were fighting 
against him).  The LOVE that Lily protected Harry with, was the same 
LOVE she got from her mother.  In turn, that same LOVE was at one 
point given to LV (Tom Riddle at the time) with Petunia's birth being 
evidence of that.			

This explains the LOVE protection idea, and somewhat explains a 
connection between Harry and LV and/or Lily and  LV.  This theory can 
also explain the difference in Lily and Petunia's appearance (having 
different fathers, different eyes), and if eventually, Petunia ends 
up doing magic, this theory would explain that as well.   

So, the question was/is........who is the HBP?   Well, with a purple-
faced muggle for a father, and LV's daughter for a mother, its got to 
be........DUDLEY!!!!

Hey.....I told you this would be a WILD!!!! theory, please give me 
your input, whether agreeing or debating.   My cousin had thought LV 
was Lily's father, but I had pointed out that it is known that Lily 
is (excuse my language)a"mudblood."  So it wasn't possible for LV to 
be her father.  

In my theory, Lily's parents could indeed have both been muggles, 
therefore truly making Lily a "mudblood".   As for the question of 
Lily's red hair, I don't think at this point that it has anything to 
do with a Weasley relation.  I think it may play a part in explaining 
an attraction to Ginny, if Harry were to develop feelings for her.
