How does one inherit hatred from one's ancestors...
That's quite easy... Just look at any feud or longterm socialogical
hatred (black/white, Israeli/Palestinian). You inherit it because
you're socialized into it.
So your argument is Harry couldn't be socialized into hating Snape...
Which is ture. BUT, Snape hated Harry's Father, and as he can't
express that hatred adequately for a dead man, Harry inheritted
Snape's hatred of James. Which in turn nurtured a hatred of Snape.
Someone please break the cycle of hate...
Can't we all just get along?
Distaiyi... No pithy punch here.
