CoH is of a piece with LotR and all of Tolkien's other writings. To emphasize the differences will get one only so far.
Perhaps it would be best to say "I like CoH because ..... ", rather than making claims about it as if the 21st century, or paganism, or Christianity, could own it. It is its own work.
That does not mean that the characters may not be evaluated.
Well, that's enough from me on this thread. Signing off.
