"They're still humans. They can't help it if they've got some sort of defect in their character that makes them drink blood or morph under moonlight. It's wrong to call them Non-humans just because of that. Human is when you have feelings, intelligent feelings, not just fear, but depression, and worry. It's so stupid to classify them as Non-humans! Why doesn't the ministry just destroy them all, and that's that? Why is it just because a centaur has four legs he is classified a Non-Human? If they have human intelligence, then they're human."

"Professor, Should werewolves really be considered in that listing? I mean, they're just regular human being 96 percent of the time. And when they are in transformation they can't control themselves unless they are under the influence of the Wolfsbane potion, and that isn't widely available." |

She shrugged irritably. |

Grindylows

Vampires
Werewolves
Boggarts
Dementors
Banshees
Hinkypunks
Pogrebin Banshees?? But they are supposed to be the messagers to tell the families when one of their members is about to die, it shoudn't be a dark beast? And werewolves? They are vicious towards humans but... sorry, I don't understand...
And the Kelpie and Lethifold??? They surely Has to have a dark definition!

| "I agree with Arkee, only those creatures with human intelligence that wish to be called humans should be considered human. I mean, to a centaur the human race is beneath them, it would be a mortal insult." |

"This is what I think. 'Non-human' doesn't mean devoid of feelings, incapable of love, evil, or sub-intelligent. It just means not **** Sapiens. Which Centaurs are not, but Werewolves are (most of the time). I put no connotations to the word 'human' other than the species."

"Maybe it's not so much as to weither or not they should be classified as Human or not, maybe it's just they should be considered 'smart' or 'intelegient' because they're obviously not actually humans, but hold human inteligence, i hope that makes sense..." Sakura says

"I think, for the most part, we are the ones who would make an evil creature out of one that is sometimes irreconcilibly different. It's our job to be diplomatic and allow the differences while understanding and accepting them. There's nothing more to do but that."
