I think I just stumbled across something that, at the very least, interested me. Within the Christian church, there is much importance assigned to the idea of Christ's blood as a redeeming and rebirthing substance. I know its figurative, but by his blood (his sacrifice) we gain, in their view, immortality. Lord Voldemort was regenerated (reborn) because of the BLOOD of his foe (amongst other wonderful ingredients).... HARRY! Another nod towards Harry being a Christ figure? I'm not sure if there is any real significance here, but it makes for an interesting note, at least. Happy Posting! LTG, 3 "Ignorance killed the cat. Curiosity was framed." (C. J.
