Kaylee Tonks-Lupin here: 
I wonder if I might get a L.O.O.N. badge for this, Debbie, but I'd just  like 
to point out that LOLLIPOPS stands for "Love of Lily Left Ire Polluting Our  
Poor *Severus*", not *Snape* *cough* Professor Snape. Since that's totally OT  
anyway, I think, I'll add that I'm more in the ACID POPS camp than the 
LOLLIPOPS  one, but I suppose Snape/Lily is *okay* as a theory *grins* I like it 
better  than ESE!Lupin, anyway, or Remus/Lily (except as platonic friends, which 
I think  they were.) I'm wondering now if we'll hear Remus finally tell all 
about Lily.  I'd love to hear it. I hope that in Book 7, Remus goes with Harry 
(and the rest  of the trio, perhaps?) to Godric's Hollow. I think they both 
need it. 
 
Cheers,
 
Kaylee

Debbie:
This has been extensively debated over the years, with much  speculating on
the TEW EWW line of  theories:
http://www.hpfgu.org.uk/faq/hypotheticalley.html#eww
These  theories posit that Voldemort wanted Lily for himself or else that
she was  to be a prize for Snape. I personally believe he did it because of
Snape,  with or without the LOLLIPOPS* option (for those who don't like
LOLLIPOPS,  there's always a Platonic Potions Chum alternative). That option
would  relate best to the unsolved mystery of who Snape is/was/ever shall  be
working for (and she's going to have to tie up a lot of loose ends in  one
book):
1. Snape must in fact have occupied a powerful position with  Voldemort.
2. Snape was unhappy about the decision to target the Potters  because of
Lily.
3. Voldemort knew this.
If this is true, Voldemort  may have been concerned about Snape's continued
loyalty before Godric's  Hollow, and maybe Lily's death explains why
Voldemort believed that Snape  had left him forever.
This also ties into another question that JKR won't  answer: who else, if
anyone, was at Godric's Hollow. I believe we will  eventually see the entire
scene unfold, via the witness's memory. So who  else was there? Wormtail?
Snape? Or both? My bets are on Pettigrew, or  maybe both.

imagining Harry's reaction if he were to discover  that Snape was there and
did nothing to prevent the deaths
*LOLLIPOPS:  Love of Lily Left Ire Polluting Our Poor Snape
