**SPOILER WARNING*** DEATHLY HALLOWS PLOT POINT DISCUSSED IN THIS POST

(Just in case anyone is searching for posts by Lashbear...)

here is the one that dies, according to the hacker.

I personally don't believe him, but you never know.

Your thoughts ?

I think it's a religious zealot out to flog the horse of "Harry potter is desensitizing our young folk to witchcraft, and I'm going to try to spoil it for them, and save you and your families..."

As if revealing one plot point will stop people from buying or wanting to read the book.

You know what amuses me most about that link... the person is trying to criticize a hugely succesful piece of literature with terrible grammar. I'm thinking a number of the kids who read the books could write better than that person.

That was the main thing that made me doubt the claim- it is written so badly.

It really makes you wonder if someone with that little literacy has the ability to hack a major server in the first place !

Not that it makes it any more believable or not, but much of the grammar and phrasing issues read not like so much like an illiterate person but like someone who isn't a native English speaker.

A very true observation.

Does anyone think that his choice was valid and Hermoine is a logical target, being that she's popular but not the #1 character in the story ?

I'd buy into that line of thinking.

Even accounting for the writer having English as a second language, it's still bad writing.

I'm also really tired of the people talking about how horrible Harry Potter is because it has witches in it. Get over it. It's called FANTASY. Just because real witches exist doesn't mean there's any relation. I don't fly on a broomstick and turn into a cat. Though if the Flue Powder traveling thing were real, it would be cool.

Pratically anyone could die at this point. I think certianly Voldemort has to die or there will be no real ending to the story. Harry could die making that happen but Voldemort's got to go.
