Dumbledore is dead. Dumbledore is not dead.

For those of you who have not read Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, it's been almost a month, get a move on.

For those who have, check out this site. It's very convincing. It overlooks one glaring fact, though: Dumbledore fell of the highest tower of the castle, and when Harry saw his body, it was twisted in all weird directions.

That being said, it wouldn't surprise me if he came back in Book 7. He's the kind of character that has made the same transformation in series like Lord of the Rings and Chronicles of Narnia. It's because of this glaring similarity that most of me hopes he just stays dead. I just think it would be more interesting that way.
