I've decided to start this section as I kept receiving praises for my analysis! (Thank you for your nice comments!)  I'm glad most of you come back to this site for these.  That's why I thought I'd develop this stand-alone section where YOU could do the same.

Hence, each essay or theory
(with supporting evidences, not rumors)
will be accepted here!  

This section is devoted to knowing what YOU believe about Snape!  
You can develop themes, thesis or subjects to your liking about why people love Snape, why not, what about him, his childhood, etc.

A real-life author's answer (nickname: Griffon)

Isabelle's essays            a) Control Theory : finally the question has been asked!

b) Perseus's own emi: Has been removed since it was proven by Rowling herself and Book6 that the anagram Perseus Evans has no meaning. It's the same for Mark Evans as mentioned on JKR's website.
