Wow!

While I don't relish the idea of finding JKR "guilty" because it 
implies she has done something wrong, I think you have made a very 
compelling case and have pointed out things that I hadn't noticed.  
It will be interesting to see what JKR says on the issue after the 
last book is written.  I, for one, hope you are right about the 
symbolism, but if not, it will not lessen my enjoyment of the series 
any!
