well, Snape is an adult in his 30's now.  But at the time of the 
prophecy, he was what - 18 or 19 years old?  Also, he also turned to 
Dumbledore before  the Potter's died.  How do you know he didn't try 
to stop LV from killing them?  Snape didn't physically deliver the 
Potter's to LV - but he was instrumental in delivering the message.  

I guess the old saying is right - People will SHOOT the messager.
