I have been hearing all of these theories about Harry not being alive, or him being a horucrux...when it occured to me....

Why does harry have a scar?
If Lily's death placed upon him a protective spell so powerful to survive the A.K, why did Harry get the scar?
I dont know about you guys, but im not all satisfied with D.D explanation of the scar; something along the lines of "LV transfered a part of him to you. You feel his moods, see things ect"
But nothing has explained the scar itself!
Am i insane? Is there an explanation to the scar and ---most importantly still--- the SHAPE of the scar. I mean, a lighting bolt, of all things. And a small one right on his forehead. This just doesnt make sense.
Why would the all-powerful protective charm allow for this scar to occur.

I think the focus has shifted FAR FAR from the scar. And i personally belive that we should bring out attention back to it. It is, after all, how the series started and it may hold the key to understanding how it will end.
