Yeah! I don't think I could see eye to eye on many things either. LOL!
I'm really curious--what's her theory about Dumbledore??
Please share if you can!!
Here is what my friend has to say:
I DON'T THINK DUMBLEDORE IS DEAD.
I think he Horcruxed himself into (a) Godric Gryffindor's sword (prominently mentioned toward the end), (b) Fawkes (Harry thinks he sees a phoenix flying up from the tomb, and phoenixes can restore the dead), and/or (c) Harry himself.
He and Snape had made this their plan, and that's what their argument, overheard by Harry or was it Hagrid, was all about. So Snape is a sort of triple agent, let alone double agent, and he was doing DD's bidding all along, so V. would trust him completely.
Yes to Regulus Black as the destroyer of the Locketcrux and substituter of the Fauxcrux, and yes to the locket found in the Black house while cleaning was underway. But where is the locket now? Does Kreacher have it? Did Mundungus steal it? Hmmmm....
Even though Horcruxes are the darkest of Dark Magic, my friend seems to think that there is a "Light" version that Dumbledore would have used. I don't know if I agree, but I do know it's an interesting theory.
