//But that leads me to the Harry being a Horcrux idea. I hadn't really
given much thought to it, but when Harry thwarted him maybe he took a
piece of his soul, want it or not.//

Coriandra2002:
I don't think it's possible for Harry to be a Horcrux.  Voldemort clearly
wants Harry dead which would make no sense if Harry's a horcrux
because his death would bring Voldemort another step closer to mortality.

I read a fascinating theory, however, just after HBP came out.  It
looked like Professor Dumbledore's drinking the potion was an
unsucessful attempt to get the horcrux that it was hiding.  Maybe,
however, the potion *was* the horcrux and by drinking it Dumbledore
made himself one.

I was outraged at first that Dumbledore apparentally died pleading for
his life with a Death Eater, but that may not have been the case.
Maybe when he was saying "Severus... please..." he was pleading for
Snape to *kill* him which Snape didn't want to do, but it was
necessary  in order to destroy the horcrux that Dumbledore had made
himself and to "prove" his loyalty to Voldemort, making himself a more
effective spy for the Order of the Pheonix.

Has anyone else ever considered that?
