Those secretly alive/rescucited/GG!Dumbledore theories are really
surprising. The principal reason I find them to be so is that I
believe they pretty much totally overlook miss one of the most
important point of the books. 

Remember what Voldie has been running after since the beginning? What
he tried to achieve with Horcruxes? 

Voldemort's ultimate goal is to obtain immortatlity. It's why he
started to collect the Horcruxes, his interest in them going back as
early as his Hogwart's years. In fact, it could be said that most of
his evil deeds, since his first raise to power, are merely side
effects to his quest of immortality.

And remember what DD told Harry about death? Remember what DD's
esteemed friend, Nicolas Flamel and his wife did? 

Before Harry perplexing over the Flamels' seemingly untroubled choice
of giving up immortality just to prevent the stone from falling into
the wrong hands, DD told Harry, in the very first book, that death was
only the beginning of another adventure.

Then, isn't it striking that one of the major differences which
separate DD and Voldie is that while Voldemort endlessy struggles to
escape his mortality, Dumbledore is serenely accepting of his own
finiteness?

All this leads me to think, putting the possible moral lesson aside,
that Dumbledore continued living, after his death, is unbelievable
because it would, at least, be totally out of character.
