Well, I have read an article at http://mugglenet.com and I have become semi-convinced that Snape is portraying a facade to all but Dumbledore. I also agree that Dumbledore was not begging for HIS life in his death scene, but for Harry's (two brooms = Snape's not an idiot).

Hm....well, I've always thought of him as evil. Examples:
1) Once was a Death Eater 2) Still refers to Voldemort as the "Dark Lord," as Death Eaters do 3) Killed off Dumbledore |

Just simply the way he hates Harry & his family and totally favors Slytherins means he's got something to do with them. and obviously, many Slytherin's parents were Death Eaters.
edited/ although Snape is conspicuously bad, the stories usually end with the bad guy really as someone you'd never thought it'd be. So Snape won't be one of the 'ultimate' bad guys in the end, i guarantee it. |

i think that while snape's motives may not be purely good, I do think that he is working to stop voldemort.

Snape = Bad = TOO OBVIOUS
:D He made the Unbreakable Vow and had to kill Dumbledore. I do not think, even being as weak as he was at the time of his death he would have ever begged for his life. That just wasn't fiesty old Albus. It just wasn't. |

FOR REAL!
I mean, how much BETTER will the book be if harry has to work with snape in the end? Rowling knows her charactrs too well to make it a simple 'harry gets revenge on snape' thing |

Snape just cannot be completely evil. It's obvious that he dislikes Harry so much because of past events with James Potter but other than that, he's doing a great job of keeping his personal/real motives hidden. He works on and with both sides but we haven't really been sufficient clues as to WHICH side he's really on. We can all speculate until the seventh book comes out. :D

Nah. Rowling can't do that. Though that would certainly be interesting.
She wouldn't dare.

^only because of the unbreakable vow.
most likely, dumbledore knew about the unbreakable vow, and asked severus to do it so draco wouldn't have to. he knew draco wouldn't, which is why he was pleading for snape to kill him. |

I bet Dumbledore made Snape kill him, like to show Voldemort that he's on his side just so he could spy on him and get info for the Order, so that then they could go and kick some Voldy ass.
 Just a suspicion. |

QUOTE(kryogenix @ Jan 11 2007, 8:34 PM) HEY! SNAPE KILLED DUMBLEDORE! Shhhhhhhhhh...You'll wake up the kids! Well technically, Snape made Snape killed Dumbledore by suggesting the Unbreakable Vow.  Still, that was to prove a point and I don't think it was what he really wanted to happen. Oh and James, ewwww to Snape being Papa Harry Potter. You just made me lose my dinner. (jk) This thread is starting to bum me out. After the next book, nothing to speculate. Although, we can always make our own decisions on the fates of our beloved characters. Go fanfic! rofl |

I think Snape is good.
He just has to act evil to help The Order. |
