You see, when Snape came to Dumbledore, all he cared for was that he
caused the death of the person he loved. That's why DD was disgusted
with him: he saw that if Voldemort had given Snape the means to claim
Lilly back, Snape wouldn't have had a second thought about how much
damage his actions wrought. Snape's plea for a way of redeeming
himself didn't originate from a genuine realization of his own
immorality, but rather from an egoistical grief of a love lost and
hatred for the man who caused it.

Alla:

Yes, I know and that is exactly what I argued upthread, or at least 
what I intended to, it is not my point though now.

Xuxu:
So yeah, I believe DD's disgust was genuine, and his harsh words
sincere. <SNIP>

Alla:

I am not questioning the sincerity of Dumbledore's disgust here, I 
totally believe it was sincere all right.

What I am question is the sincerity of Dumbledore requesting Snape 
giving him something in return for saving Lily. Do you think it was 
sincere as well?
