Julie:
It's clear, but it's not at all what JKR wrote. There are
three Unforgivables, capitalized, named and defined. Dark
Magic is distinct and identifiable, as Lily tells us in one of
Snape's Pensieve scenes in DH

Lynda:
Then why are there a number of wizards who are not dark wizards who cast the
Unforgivable Curses in the defense of their own lives or the lives of
others. I'm not referring to Harry using imperio here, but to the wizards
and witches in the Battle of Hogwarts who used the UC's in defense of
themselves and others. Rowling does not impugn them for using them in that
manner. That is where I got the idea, not out of thin air.
