Hate to bust your bubble, but after all that stuff with Fawkes cremating Dumbledore and sealing him in that white tomb, i don't think he'll come back. I would assume that phoenixes would know if someone died, being the masters of life and death themselves (in the books, anyways)

You're not busting any bubble, matey. What's to say Fawkes isn't in on the act, hey? What do you say to that?

Or the stunning spell coud have been in the form of sum sort of invisible barrier around the body that nothin can penetrate, including the body itself, curses, the ground, the force of impact with the ground, fire, and any other combination of words in the english language :p, but weers off after awile, so that dumbledore wakes up beleeved ded so that he can execute the next stage of his master plan in secrecy.

Apparently there was an enchantment on it that prevented the water from being drained in any way besides drinking.

That part was painfully contrived, if you ask me.

I think i remember what 2) was now:

2) How was the necklace in Borgin and Bukes and the cave at the same time? And if it was a Horcrux, then why did Voldemort let Malfoy risk it by using it as a wepon - that strategys been overused, and theres only so many horcruxes he can spare... And if it had been impounded by the ministry of magic, then why did Harry and Voldemort go to the cave to destroy it? Why did they not go back to the ministry?

The Horcrux was a locket that Slytherin owned and had been in the possesion of Merope (Voldemort's mother), the necklace in B&B's was a different object with no relation to the Horcrux.

Yes, but once again, nothing can block Avada Kedava. And plus, if Dumbledore did not die, Snape would have, because of the Unbreakable Vow he made with Narcissa. REMEMBER?!

I'm pretty sure Dumbledore is dead and that Snape killed him. But! I think there is definitely something more to Dumbledore's death that we don't know about, it just seemed too easy, and why did Dumbledore's body fall off of the tower, he should've just collapsed in place.

The last book has to end with Harry living and Voldemort dying. How could a great series just end by Harry not surviving the fight. And do I think that Dumbledore might have at least something to do with the last book.
