What is the next number in the sequence 14, 15, 16, 17, 21, 23, 30, 33?
damn that 30, i can't think of any valid hypothesis that includes that.
Well, the question is how to spin it as medical care.
As I see it the political biases are very deep and pernicious, firstly there 's there right, with its view of a god given natural order, and how breaking free of that is an affront to any such entity. Then there's the woo laden portions of the left, which take a distinctly non-reductionist view of the world, accepting things like homeopathy and whatnot. Speaking from experience, a lot of people with that worldview have two major roadblocks to accepting cryonics, firstly a steadfast belief that 'natural == good' and a distinctly dualist view of consciousness.

On the other hand, if it is there (a highly unlikely situation) it would be immense evidence that it wasn't Dumbledore, or at the very least that it was an accident of some sort.
But this is mostly useless speculation given what we know.
Snape is suitably evil, smart, and with reason to hurt ... Harry (after their talk about James Potter), ...
See, I have trouble with that, mainly because it's been established that he's still in love with Lily Potter (which is why Harry's advice was so cutting), and hurting her only son would fall counter to that.
Well, given that we're discussing alternatives to Quirrelmort, that doesn't quite apply.
I'd be willing to wager that in MORverse Quirrelmort could imperius even Mc Gonnagal.
Point, though wanting to curb bullying, and end the racism amounts to nearly the same thing as wanting to redeem Slytherin.
Nah, where's the fun in that? ;)
