Heren Istarion said: <blockquote>
Quote:<hr> as Gandalf would not compare himself to a creature of different order<hr></blockquote>
The quote mentioned points out their differences and doesn't imply any shared properties.
And then you contradict yourself with: <blockquote>
Quote:<hr> Gandalf was afraid to take the ring, cause he wished power to cure the hurts of arda and pain of it's inhabitants, and Bobmbadil needed power not<hr></blockquote>
Both of your examples point out the
differences between Gandalf and Bombadil, furthering the case that Bombadil was
not a Maiar.
