| | |  Faith site offers words of comfort
A multi-faith website has produced an article offering words of comfort to those who are mourning the death that occured in ' Half-Blood Prince'. While I personally don't agree with their stance on a certain Professor, the article is a good read. The piece can be found here. Quote:
No matter how painful it is for us to deal with this fact or how much we want there to be a special potion that will bring him back, it is clear that his soul has passed behind the veil and we have to accept it.
Quote:
Like Harry’s mother, _________ is a martyr: they both laid down their own lives so that other people could live. The power of their sacrifice will endure.
Another article on the prophecy, can be read here.

That sounds very nice. I haven't checked out the website yet, but I have a feeling on the stance and professor you are referring to Emma...
Just went to look...
I see what you mean, I'm with you.

At some point, if someone looks evil, talks evil, and acts evil, they are evil.
I don't agree with that, but for some reason it made me laugh...
Not a horrible article, but anyone with a basic HP knowledge could rebuttal some of the things said.

Nice of them to offer comfort. I looked at it more as another kind of review. I don't agree on the "if someone looks, talks, and acts evil- they are" stance, but I am most certainly still shocked like them on the actions taken by one such HBP... I'm still very very angry at him...

I think that was really great fo them to write an article about the death. I know I myself as well as a lot of other HP fans are still grieving. I still can't believe it.

I disagree with most of the assumptions in the article. I am of the camp that believes there was a sacrifice not a murder at the end of book 6. I do not believe that Dumbledore is naive or stupid. He is the oldest wizard in the order. His opinions or beliefs should not be discarded lightly regardless of initial appearances.

Good written article, I`m agree at some few points, but mostly it`s pointless, IMHO.

For real?!?!?! Whoa, that's...weird. I seriously never thought something like that would be written. It's nice, though.

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.

I seemed to be a little confused but why would they write something like that? *scratches head* Ohh well it is somewhat nice of them to do so but we just have to remember it's their opinion.
