Prep0strus:
I just don't understand. I'm just baffled, even if you could like the
character of Snape, even if you see more good in him that I can
imagine - taking him in the best of terms, a tortured child, full of
love, who risks life and limb for his love, his love's child, for the
fight against evil... why would you admire him more than James or
Sirius? What did they do to make them worse than him? They couldn't
play double agent... they never were evil so that they could turn
good. they fought only on the side of good. And Sirius went against
his family to do it! James put himself in harm's way for his family.
Sirius, coming from a background of muggleborn haters, fought on
their behalf. Yes, they hated slytherins and acted like bullies as
children, but snape hated griffendors and acted like a bully as an
adult..
I went on for a long time in my post entitled "Snape V. Marauders' if
you feel like seeing more arguments, but I need to hear more of
someone else's.
how can there be 'no contest' in admiring snape more than james or
sirius? to admire someone is to respect them, believe them worthy of
emulation. why would you choose a nasty little boy who grew up into a
nasty little man - an EVIL man, who managed to become good, but remain
nasty... over two men who always chose good. sometimes they were
petty, sometimes they were small - no more than sirius, but they were
always GOOD. and brave.
shoot, there at least has to be a CONTEST.
