What do you think of the Harry Potter series as a lesson in Virtues?

I just read the essay in that link, and that is a very interesting ogy there. I had not thought about it, but it does make sense. JK Rowling has borrowed things from many different learned scholars, older writings, etc, and there are some definite Christian ogies in there as well. So, it makes sense that Harry will define the virtue of Love in book 7. After all, it's the one virtue that Voldemort has never understood and never will.
