did Dumbledore ordered him to kill him. In this theory, 
Dumbledore took Harry intentionally, protected him with stupification, 
and was hit by the AK from Snape. This also helped him to convince 
Draco to change sides. Was this the Dumbledore's plan that Snape was 
arguing with him that Hagrid overheard?
=========================

Jeremiah:
In my opinion: Yes... sort of.
Draco has yet to change sides because he is afraid of LV's power. But the seeds have been planted. Yes, I think this is the argument Hagrid overheard between Snape and DD. Of course DD took Harry intentionally. He needed to learn about sensing the presence of past magic, he needed to see DD die and he needed to see the type of henchmen associated with LV. In my opinion, the entire experience (from finding the horcrux to chasing Snape from the Hogwarts grounds) was something DD needed Harry to experience.
