An even more Evil idea: perhaps James decided the most important 
thing was not losing Lily. He may have resented the attention Harry 
received from Lily.  He may have been the one who bargained for 
Lily's life, only to be killed by Voldemort right away.



Sherry now:

ok, now you've done it.  You've come up with the absolute worst possible
scenario for the final book.  I think that would be cruelty beyond belief,
for Harry, to find that his father arranged his death.  in fact, i think it
would make me throw up and give me nightmares for weeks.  i don't think it
would cause Harry to rethink his feelings toward others, at all, unless it
was to make him truly hate and distrust everyone.  it could turn Harry into
the next dark lord.  I've never been too thrilled with the roles of flawed
fathers and sainted mothers as shown in the books, but that's because of
personal experience.  But I think it would be a tragedy that Harry could not
bear.
