Don't you think that in the last battle, all the good guys should have killed the death eaters other than just stunning? Because the death eaters just come back and kill the good guys... _________________ Animagus:Troll (LoL!)
No, then everyone's souls would be split. Also they don't just go free now that Voldy's gone, they're either in Azkaban or have had the kiss.. assuming the Ministry is restored and the dementors are controlled. _________________
Besides... you can still kill people with regular hexes and such.
Spoiler:
Like when Molly killed Bellatrix with a hex aimed right at her heart
lol where dos it say that. i thought she used avada kedavra
Oh no, haha, this has been an ongoing debate...Some people think that Molly wouldn't do that. I think that after Bellatrix went after her daughter and taunted her about her dead son any mother would have went for the kill. But that's offtopic.

It says specifically (99.9% sure, short of looking it up right now) that Molly aimed a hex right at her heart, or chest area, and then Bellatrix collapsed. I thought it was established that people could be killed with different hexes depending on how strong the spell is cast and where it is aimed at. For sure, that has been said several times about when several stunning spells are used to stun one person. It can be lethal. _________________

I think that you have to put your soul into a horcrux for it to be split(unless i am mistaken) and i would honestly have shot killing curses back i wouldnt want to be facing the same enemy again after he killed a friend of mine, when i could have killed him the first time _________________ Wand: 11" Holly, Unicorn

yeah, your soul doesn't spilt just because you kill someone, there is a bunch of spells and stuff you have to do. Ron and Harry ask Hermione what needs to be done to make a Horcrux and she said it was too awful. A fan asked JKR the same question and she gave the same answer. It's more than just killing someone, there's a procedure involved.

The exact quote is...
DH ch 36, pg 736 (US ed)
Molly's curse soared beneath Bellatrix's outstreched arm and hit her squarely in the chest, directly over her heart.
The word that is used is curse, which could mean it was the Killing Curse. _________________

But the fact that it just says "Molly's curse" probably means that it's just some curse out of hundreds of curses that could be used. If it were the Killing Curse, I'm sure it would have said that. Cuz that'd be a pretty big deal. _________________

Not necassairly. The fact that it says "curse" does mean that the Killing Curse is still a possibility. _________________

But JKR would have mentioned she used the KILLING curse. cuz that's a huge deal. it's unforgivable.
Surely you can kill people with regular curses. They would just have to be cast strong enough and pointed at a vital area. _________________

She never said if other curses can kill. But just like whether or not Molly used the Killing Curse, just because she didn't say it, doesn't mean it's not a possibility. _________________

It's possible to kill and not use AK, like how DD's sister died.
There's a difference between having your soul torn/split/damaged and making a Horcrux. The only way you can make a Horcrux is to damage your soul then perform some spell(I think that's what Slughorn said), but the spell doesn't split your soul, the act of killing does, or atleast damages it allowning you to split it. _________________

ok jkr probly thought it was obvious with all the death that had happened. and it isnt magicly unforgivable, its just against ministry law (which just so happened to be overthrown at the time).
McGonagall got hit with six stunning spells in the chest and didn't die, and she's probably twice Bella's age. It was probably the killing curse. _________________ "If you're going through hell, keep going."

EEXXCCEELLEENNTT....
I think it was the Killing Curse that hit Belltrix. And JKR had it hit her in the heart for metaphorical reasons. _________________

Find me a point in the book where someone is killed by AK but it isn't specified that it is the killing curse and I'll consider that Mrs.Weasley really used it. _________________

?
But if it isn't specified, then how can we show it to you? _________________
