On Christ-like Tolkien characters: many of the characters in LotR have some Christ-like qualities, but remember that none of them are perfect. Frodo, Sam, and Gandalf all have some Godly qualities. Of these characters, Sam comes closest to being truely Christ-like.

I love Frodo too, though! It's a good thing Iluvitar was watching over it all, even though no one realized it.
