I think for someone who grew up with so much hate in his life, to be able to love someone so strongly, for an entire lifetime,- that deserves respect. If you can't repsect him for holding a position that many, many others would have crumpled in, or for his expertise in Potions, or for his loyalty to Dumbledore, than, at least, repsect him for that.
Thank you for the Slytherin point of view! No, was just joking.
Maybe I was not able to make it clear with my poor english, but there is no question about no respect for Snape what he has done in the end,
but what I just wanted to say is that he is not "the good boy" now.
Wow I mean that's great. Why do we always think there has to be black and white, good and bad.
One of the main themes in Deathly Hallows is about that.
Think of Dumbledore and Grindelwald.
And Harry, using the Imperius Curse, really meaning it!
What is good and what is bad?
It is clear on each end, but there is a very broad field in between.
