ATTENTION, THOSE WHO READ MY ENTRIES:

THIS POST CONTAINS HUGE, GIGANTIC SPOILERS FOR THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE. DO NOT READ UNLESS YOU HAVE FINISHED THE BOOK!

Obviously, there is the theory that Snape, indeed, is not evil. There is a lot of evidence for that. Snape had to save Draco, and Dumbledore knew he was going to die. Dumbledore would NEVER plead for his life, that is just out of character. He was also very desperate to tell Harry everything, evidence toward the fact he knew his time would come soon. There's a lot more evidence out there. There is a very good summary here. More notes: Dumbledore needed a spy, an inside spy, on Voldemort. Snape is that man. (I'll post more on this idea as I get evidence.)

Next topic: R. A. B. seems to only be Regulus (A?) Black, Sirius' brother. There are a few other "R"s, but the evidence points to Regulus. Evidence? In one of the earlier books (five?), it says he got in too far and tried to back out, which would explain how he knew about the horcrux but then tried to destroy it- the locket. In book five, when they are cleaning house, recall what was on one shelf- an UNOPENABLE LOCKET.

All this evidence has been pointed out to me from other eyes, along with the idea that appears that "OMGHARRY=HORCRUX!"

And now, my piece de resistance, which I present to you word for word as I posted it earlier:

"I've been reading everybody's posts, and it's amazing how often people think Harry is a Horcrux. There is also a seemingly large amount of evidence that he's not. And lo, this is where my theory comes in.

Harry is not a Horcrux.

However, his scar is. When Voldemort tried to kill him (in order to split his soul to create a horcrux later), Lily's love protected Harry, and Voldemort's spell backfired (obviously). However, not only did the Avada Kedavra (spelling?) backfire, but his intention to use the murder of the threat to his life (according to the prophecy as he interpreted it) also backfired, and the intention alone perhaps split his soul, as he was already so twisted and evil (this being his 7th horcrux) and so far from human, and this accidentally split soul (or even a splinter of the intended split) went to Harry. (That was a long sentence, sorry.) Since, perhaps, it was unintended to work that way, or it was only a splinter of his horcrux, Harry didn't become the horcrux, but part of him did. The essence of Voldemort's soul changed him, hence the scar, and his many connections with Voldemort, and perhaps the OTHER horcruxes. After all, in book five Harry did "see" Nagini attack Mr. Weasly, and he already has all the other similarities to Voldemort.

Also, another thing: Didn't J. K. Rowling say, from the very beginning, that the last word of the last book was "scar" ?"

One thing I missed in my original post (with background information to explain relevance):
Evidence against Harry being a horcrux: it seems he would have to die in order to kill Voldemort, and the prophecy says that one will live while one will die.
Now, if the scar was a horcrux? It would simply... diasappear, along with the parts of Voldemort in Harry, and all those connections therein.

The idea behind Harry being a horcrux is that a) Voldemort tried to kill Harry to create a very important and difficult horcrux, b) he is potentially a descendant of Gryffindor, and is therefor appealing to Voldemort to "complete the collection," per se, and c) Harry obviously is connected to Voldemort (can anyone say Parseltongue?). There's likely a lot more.

All right, I think that's enough to occupy your brains for now. Am I missing any major questionable plot points?
