What was arrogant, in the sense of an unwarranted assumption of
superiority, was for Harry to think that his judgement was better than 
Dumbledore's. Especially in regard to Snape, where Harry knew that 
Dumbledore's information was more complete than his, it was arrogant 
for Harry to assume that he was right and Dumbledore, "the> greatest 
wizard Harry had ever, or would ever, meet,"  was wrong.  

Steven1965aaa:

I don't think its arrogant.  After what Harry just saw on the Tower, 
why in the world would he believe anything other than that Dumbledore 
was wrong for having trusted Snape.  Lupin (who earlier had said he 
trusts Snape because he trusts DD's judgment, etc.), McGonagle, and 
everybody else also seemed to think the same thing.  Note however 
Hagrid's earlier comment (Snape must have gone with the death eaters 
to keep his cover because DD told him to) may forshadow the truth if 
you are a Snape DDM person.
