>Now, I don't know the morality of horcruxes, but it seems that maybe 
killing a defenseless child would split your soul no matter who it 
was.  Perhaps in this line of thinking, if Voldemort had allowed Harry 
to grow up on his own and then killed him in battle, it may not have 
split his soul.

a_svirn:
You are not talking of any morality here. You are talking 
of "niceties" of a duelling code. An important matter certainly, but 
it doesn't really have anything to do with a state of one's soul.
