Wow, the magical bond, I thought that was directly and solely due to Lily Evans death, and not enforced using Petunia. It was just as a sister, Petunia offered Harry protection.

So you think that for the bond to exist, Petunia has to have some magical powers? Wow, I hadn't thought of that.

Petunia seemed jealous of Lilys powers.
Do you think she refused a place at Hogwarts, or wasn't offered a place?

I was kind of figuring that lily got her letter first and was jealous. When she came back the next year able to do all sorts of wonderful thing petunia hated her even ore and probably thought it was weird and thats why she either...ignored her letter or never got one. If she did notice any powers it might have faded away because she didn't want them. Has you can tell she thinks Harry are "abnormal" and she might have though the same about hers.

The dear old lady is far too nice to be a dreadful witch.

Subtle aren't you?

Somethings odd about Petunias jealousy towards her sister.
However Lily seemed to be the bright, funny, intelligent one, or a bit of a catch, so I have always discounted this sibling rivalry.

I wouldn't be surprised if Petunia has a little magic - but I was surprised that anyone else felt the same.

*mutters, moans, bet TDM still has the Snape logo, tut - tut, mutters more*

No!

Magic is the creation of Rowling's evil mind! If she didn't exist then neither would magic!

My hatred of magic is matched only by Rowling's love of magic.

Thank you for those kind words, however I do not believe in math and neither am I good at it. Numbers are the pathway to darkness.

So if aunt Petunia made you a bite to eat and sat you in front of the television. Would she be evil?

A radio based telephone. We call it a mobile.
I think you might say Cell phone??

Though it has nothing to do with plant cells as far as I know, and its not edible.

***************

So TV is evil, well that is a point of view.

American TV is *coughs* old British TV. Very Happy

I heard that all the British Comedy series are being shipped over to you Yanks including The Office, Little Britain, Ali G, Catherine Tate, the IT crowd, and many others.

At last it seems the Yanks are *getting* British humour. Praise the lord!!

Yes, of course. That is unless she is unaware of the evil that is television.

This is good news as plants are the root of all evil.

The correct point of view.

So if we do your opposites code then:

1. She's horrible
2. She's no lady
3. Witches are good
4. She's far too horrible to be a witch


How should we reply ?

We weakly and without conviction disagree, with your unstated opinion.

She is an Aunt therefore she must be a lady, or as the uneducated would call say “female”.

Oh ION no!

Someone does not have to be a witch to be corrupted by magic.

The confused will always do so. May you accept ION and Prime when you are most ready, youngling.

I have been granted permission by ION and Prime so I am not sinning, but most importantly is the fact that not all technology is evil. Only the ones I say are evil are really evil. My computer was also made by the Guardians of the Universe.

It was made on Oa and is run by Oan energy. It is a one of a kind computer, there are only 3 more of it the whole Universe. There is no way to buy one.
