Dumbledore rules. I've been thinking about this as well and I think it is an interesting aspect of this Merlin/Gandalf/Obi-Wan?Hermes. I doubt that I'm alone in seeing a great deal of homosexual subtext in "The Lord of the Rings". Thinking of Hogwarts (note the pig symbolism, Francis Bacon and beyond) as an Invisible College, I find the allegorical aspects fascinating, especially so as there is such immediate, terrestrial significance to issues of intolerance. Great work! Long live the spirit of Dumbledore.
