No non-christians share the same beliefs as the LotR mythology

Untrue. The basic morality (self-sacrifice, courage, honor, truthfulness, humbleness over pride, etc.) is reflected for the most part in every major religion today. To say that "no non-Christians" have the same "beliefs" (this is an ambiguous word, since Tolkien did not want the work to convey his specific
beliefs so much as his overall moral message) is to do a great disservice to Professor Tolkien.
