When Dumbledore said Voldemort couldn't be killed, wasn't he referring to Voldemort's current state(not human enough to be killed or whatever it was?*too tired to go look exact quote up*)? If so, wouldn't it be possible now to kill him because he's once again in a human body?

I agree whole heartedly on that point. To put it simply(in my opinion), Harry's glasses are the physical manifestation of his vulnerability, his weakness, his humanity, his -mortality-.

I love how human JKR makes him; all of her characters, really. He's not perfect, he's not the strongest person in the world, he's a tad clumsy at times, not the greatest with some magic, etc. He's flawed, he has weaknesses, he's a human being and she makes that apparent. She doesn't put him up on a pedastool of perfection.
