I believe that is one of the silliest debates in all of philosophy,
almost as silly as the one about free will. If the end ALWAYS
justified the means then you'd do everything, if the end NEVER
justified the means then you'd do nothing. So is it true? It's like
asking how long is a piece of string, it depends.

I believe it is a difference only of degree, as both are based on
erroneous thoughts, something both of us agree Marietta had in
abundance. And I repeat something I said before, if she thought
Umbridge and Fudge were better people than Dumbledore and Harry, if
she could read all those revolting educational decrees and not realize
there was something very seriously wrong with them then Marietta is a
moral imbecile.
