Thank you for linking to those threads, Boro. I had seen them before but 'twas useful to see them again.

Are you supposing that pride, then, is a good attribute, but that it is unfortunately joined at the hip with arrogance? If we cannot have one without the other then surely the one is just as bad as the other.

I must confess that I know nothing at all about Tolkien's religion. However, it appears to me as if he places an almost contradictory quality onto the notion of pride, perhaps that it is both good and bad. Is there a solution to this problem? Is it a problem?
