I am not opposed to Harryhorcrux theories, since I also think that
it is fairly obvious due to the nature of the series that Harry WILL
be called upon to sacrifice himself and that reason seems tome to be
the simplest as to why sacrifice may be needed, BUT since I am still
ready and willing to be an optimist as to the Harry's survival, I am
fully supporting SSSusan scenario - whether Harry is a horcrux or
not, he would either:
discover at the last minute that the sacrifice is not needed ( for
example in essense being divided would mean that Harry and Voldie
could live separately or something like that, or Harry will learn
that he is not a Horcrux after all, and only transfer of powers
occurres) OR
Harry would try to make a sacrifice but somebody will "unhorcrux"
him at the last minute. I think that the fact thet ring was no
longer a horcrux gives us something, IF Harry is a Horcrux.
Hmmm, maybe unhorcruxing Harry would be Snape's redemptive act?

Alla:
Yes, THAT. Pretty, please JKR? Something like that?
JMO,
Alla, who thinks that she probably did not say anything new in this
post, but who enjoys Debbie's posts too much and wanted to reply. :-)
