I have my doubts about the Avada Kedavra spell being genuine, or being
the cause of Dumbledore's death.  However, we have seen and heard of
Snape acting as a healer.  I think he would have felt responsible and
remorseful because he couldn't save Dumbledore's life, but instead had
to participate in the charade of killing him.  But time will tell
which of us is right.

And I'd like to see Harry somehow grow into an honorable person out of
these experiences.

Now I have papers of my own to grade ...
