If we consider Snape's actions. Firstly his life debt was not owed to  
Harry, it was owed to James. And secondly it is quite apparent that  
Snape could have chosen to ignore this debt. However, he did not.  
Despite his obvious loathing of James + Harry, he felt honour bound 
to  protect Harry. He does the honourable thing!!

Kaylee now: Ah, good point. He owed a life debt to James, did he not? The  
question is, if he told the prophecy to Voldemort, doesn't that make him, oh,  
the *tiniest* bit responsible for James' *death*? I bet this has been discussed 
 to death already but I just noticed it. Thanks for bringing it to my  
attention, Brothergib!
