I believe tolkien was trying to show how evil begetts evil rather than put frodo in the same boat as sauron.

I believe it goes a bit like this,

Gollum evil thwarts Sauron very evil to enable the good/confused Frodo to prevail the end result keeping the ring out of saurons hands .

when i say good it could be taken as pitty in the way he allowed gollum to live thus causing the loss of his finger coincedentally the same finger as sauron.

Just a theory with a twist. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
