"I understand that the Killing curse may have been created with evil intent, but what if it were used for good? Hear me out before you begin shouting at me. What if a person were to be hurt in a terrible accident and they were to continue living, but in incredible, deabilitating pain, would you consider it wrong to put them out of their misery?"
"That just relates to a Muggle problem. Should we uthenize people because they're oging to be in pain? I belive us Magic people are fortuante though, for we have Potions to relive pain."

"Professor! I have a question. Are aurors allowed to use the unforgivables?"

Meandering 03-19-2004 03:06 AM

"About the Avada Kedavra being used to end lives? That's called ethunasia, and it's still considered illegal," said Peony.

"I suppose you have a point. It COULD have been created for such a thing but I think its unlikely. It just is too evil of a curse in my opinion. Plus it is against wizarding law."

"I don't think so," Thyra replied. "And hi Alana (?)!"

"The problem is that you NEED evil intentions in order to perform them. Mercy-killing is different, it's done out of, well, mercy, but certainly not evil."

"Hello Professor, looking forward to classes with you."

Almost all the spells can be used the wrong way, Anthony said. It's not always the spell that's bad...it's how you use it.
"Exactly," Ashlie said. "There are the bad spells. But in the end, it comes down to who the witch/wizard is and how they're using the spell. It's the same as a knife. It can be a utensil. But in the wrong hands, it can be a weapon."

*Jumps from seat --*

"Ahh! P- professor, what in the name --"

*raise trembling hand*

"Beside from the Unforgivables I would say that all magic is potentially harmful; those for disguise want to trick other people, those to manipulate are, well, manipuilating... Every hexes and anti-hexes are middly evil for they serve the purpose to harm, as I already said.

coolant661 03-19-2004 03:08 AM

It may so happens that you might come across to a time when you need to use that spell, Anthony implied. Not every spell is made for bad use, like i said before...It's how you use the spell, not necessarily what spell it is.

Sakura_kura 03-19-2004 03:08 AM

"I also agree that all magic depends on the witch/wizard using it!"

"You have a point!" Thyra exclaimed. "I can't believe I didn't think of that before, good job!"

"I don't see how Crucio could be of any use, except to interrogators, or psychos into bondage."

Edge 03-19-2004 03:09 AM

-=He tried to raise his hand to speak, but he was drowned by the other students who are talking very rapidly, so he decided to just sit down and listen to them talk.=-

Cassirin 03-19-2004 03:09 AM

"You students really do have the nastiest habit of running away with the conversation. I can hardly get a word in edgewise... but I really enjoy your enthusiasm. MonkeyBJr, 5 points to Gryffindor for getting those Unforgivables out so quick."

"Several of you bring up a good point though... there are uses even for the Unforgivables that could be humane and non-Dark. However, the energy and will needed to fuel these spells comes from Dark intentions. While I like the suggestion that the Killing Curse could be used as a humane means to euthanasia, unfortunately, that is not so. Someone with such an intent couldn't even cause a muscle twitch in their patient.

"On the other hand, someone said Obliviate was unforgivable. There are many unfortunate uses of that spell, but it does not need malicious intent to work. Therefore, it is not a Dark spell."

Arkee Maldemer 03-19-2004 03:09 AM

"It's a good thing most spells and charms have a certain ambiguity to them. The same ones that can be used against us can be used by us to defend ourselves. Once again, it's all about who is doing them and why."

coolant661 03-19-2004 03:10 AM

Totally agree, said Anthony smiling.

augureycry 03-19-2004 03:11 AM

"Very well said."

:thinks to herself that sounds good unless she HAS to point out something:

Sakura_kura 03-19-2004 03:11 AM

"We do seem to be getting carried away with the conversation, like you mentioned professior, so is their another question?" Sakura asks

"But htat would be unfair! Only because you *think* the person is evil, because it's your *enemy* is enough reason to think him/her evil. But the same you are potentially the *enemy* of hundred of peoples on earth! so, like those who write history; if your side is attacked then the other are the evil ones?"

. Plus it is against wizarding law
But law is created by human being, us, we all, and we clearly see that WE don't have te slightless clue what Dark Magic is, so that's kind of hipcritical...

dttfminb 03-19-2004 03:12 AM

Why are those spells called unforgivables?

Meandering 03-19-2004 03:13 AM

Pepony raised her hand. "I'm sorry Professor, but how do you know that the DArk Curses need a dark force behind them?"

Hermione_loves_Ron 03-19-2004 03:13 AM

"Professor, I belive that some curses are meant to be evil. But most aren't. MOst of us aren't going to go use something like a tickling charm to drive someone insane. Wouldn't it take an awful long time?" Ashlie asked.

Sakura_kura 03-19-2004 03:13 AM

"because if you use them, your not forgiven, and punished saverly"
