Back to horcruxes.....

While I still believe that Harry is a horcrux....

I really do think the sorting hat may well be a Horcrux...

1. Voldy had the opportunity during the Job interview for the DADA 
position...Voldy's grabbing of the wand may have been a last ditch 
effort to create a horcrux w/in Hogwarts since he did not garner the 
position of DADA he was seeking. Also, this would fit with voldy's 
desire to create horcruxes that were closely tied to the founding 
members of hogwarts.



I have been pondering what may have happened if TR's diary would 
have been written in by as many inidivuals who had worn the sorting 
hat...

Perhaps Lucius also wrote in the diary==hence the replay of events 
that happened years before and seeing as Lucious also wanted to 
discredit Arthur..He placed the diary with one of the weasley 
children. (confirmed in the HBP--however, Lucious probably garnered 
a great deal more info from said diary than either Jenny or Harry.)

I think this may explain why in the recent decade a certain sort 
tend to be in slytheryn...

While voldie horcrux hat can influence...there are the influence of 
the other founders there--even if horcruxhat voldie tried to take 
control...the other influences of the hat exerted their power so 
that free choice should prevail!

Hence the dialoge between Harry and the hat, and the dialogue 
between Hermione and the hat--among others...including 
Sirius....Harry was considered for slyteryn...Hermione was 
considered for Ravenclaw.---What if...it was the horcrux 
talking..trying to convince them to go elsewhere..

It also makes sense when considering the Diary-Tom-Riddle's words in 
COS when he states something to the effect of the fact that the 
sorting hat..is an OLD hat....(makes sense in the time-line...of the 
horcrux diary)..Yet of course the "hat" gives Harry the tool to save 
the day.

The sorting hat would be the ultimate horcrux that could be created 
in the absence of founders objects.(what if the only safe way to 
drink the potion in the cave was the hufflepuff cup?!?) Creating 
said horcux would be something Voldy would do after being turned 
down for the DADA position.

It would be wonderfuld if the sorting hat was a horcrux...If Harry 
destroyed it, it would be a first step in uniting the houses. It 
would revamp the house system.

(who wonders what and how much either Lucius or Draco may had 
written in said diary)
