Yes, but the real question is, how much would it torment Harry for this to occur? *evil grin*. But I think the closest JB has touched on this possibility is with the side-line of stories regarding Maggie/Mouse and their school "for the gifted".

Wouldnt suprise me at all, thought I maintain that after the BAT kicks off, Harry and Nic are going to find themselves on the same side.

I don't think I can agree- every time I see opinions that Nicky and the Nickelheads are secretly out to save Earth and humanity (especially as justification for their depravity), I am strongly reminded of C. S. Lewis' quote regarding Screwtape: "My readers are advised to remember that the Devil is a liar; not everything that Screwtape says should be assumed to be true, even from his own viewpoint. There is wishful thinking in Hell as well as on earth."

I'm sure that those that care have a sufficiently strong counter argument for that in their arsenal, or find that to not be sufficiently strong enough to sway them. 

I'd rather just let the point lie.  It's a good point (both yours and his), that has been debated vigorously for millennia.  I don't see it getting resolved in this topic...

As you wish . . .

Wasn't the Sacrifice foretold in the Old Testament? If so, then that may collapse your theory, since Determination negates Free Will.

Not necessarily, since within the function of foretelling, you are conflating observation with dictation. That you see something occur (across time) does not have to mean that you are commanding it to occur.
