Hogwarts destroyed?

[Mistress Siana]

The characterisation of Dumbledore in the Harry Potter lexion says that, according to McGonagall, Dumbledore once made a prophecy that Hogwarts would be destroyed. I don't remember that part, and it makes me crazy. I cannot find it! Can anyone tell me what they're talking about?

[Broccoli]

Hmmmm... can't remember it either!

[Scellanis]

I've never heard of it before either....

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

It's probably because it never happened. No idea what They are on about...

[Mistress Siana]

I found it. Stupid thing, really. It in CoS, when Harry and Ron overhear a conversation in which McGonagall reaveals to the other teachers that Ginny has been taken. Her words are these:

"This is the end of Hogwarts. Dumbledore has alway said..." she's interrupted, then.

The HP lexicon interprets it as a prophecy made by Dumbledore. How stupid! Then again, they list Aberforth as the bartender of the Hog's Inn, which is just a theory that's never been confirmed. I guess I have to reconsider using them as my favourite source of information.

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

I've read so many rumours and theories that the only stuff I ever take seriously is the stuff on JK's website, something JK's posted on a website, something JK's said somewhere, or the books, which less and less people or refering to now that the movies are available.
There's so many speculations It's fun making your own though lol.

[Mistress Siana]

Oh, speculating is my hobby! But I hate it when people claim their speculation as truth.

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

lol yeah it takes the complete fun outta speculation. And if you use their speculation as truth and someone proves u wrong it's very
that's why i only trust JK's official word.

Then again, they list Aberforth as the bartender of the Hog's Inn, which is just a theory that's never been confirmed.

I think that JKR has confirmed this in an interview... But I don't remember which one it was and I woud still speculate, because it wasn't 100% you're right or you aren't right and with her one can never known...

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

What's the HP Lexicon?
Sorry but as I said before I don't really refer to much else other than the books, which i probably refer to way too much lol!
Yeah anyhow, could anyone help me out?

[Tanuki]

It's a website that is one of the three authorities on Harry Potter. They are even mentioned in her personal website. It's is one of the most extensive fan collections of theories and data on HP.

It's also where I found the essay that started me on Harry/Hermione

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

Thanks, I'll check it out

[Mistress Siana]

It's rather useful if you want to look up, say, exactly how many Death Eaters have been confirmed as killed by Aurors. You would have to read through all 5 books otherwise. But, as I've just experienced, be carefull with the conclusions they draw.

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

Ok. Sites like that, apart from them being very good and having tonnes of great info, do tend to bend the truth a little don't they lol. They take a lot of precautions so don't don't actually lie. But they do bend. I'll be careful.

[Un'Anima Persa]

i must agree, they do bend the rules, and the truth. but I really don't think that the prophecy was dumbledore's, it wouls just be like saying that the place where he calls home was just another accident waiting to happen... and it would all of the fun i am having with the idea that hogwarts will be around forever.
