Lynda: Well, it seems to me that the type of secret they are talking about, (location where people are staying, location of headquarters for a secret organization) needs to be known by someone other than just the people who have that particular secret. With safe houses, one or two people within the orginazation know where someone is being kept, and it's the same thing here.

Forgive me if this has already been discussed. Ever since I read 
about secret keepers I wondered why have them at all? Why do you 
have to tell your secret to someone? Why couldn't Lily and James 
kept the secret to themselves? It seems safer. What is it about 
Wizards that requires them to have a secret keeper?
