I believe continuous exchanging of opinions is what helps us get to the ultimate goal - to understand Tolkien's works better by learning new things (so long as they are worthwhile arguements). Ridiculing opinions, to my mind, is the wrong approach. A balanced arguement is probably the best method. Agreeing or disagreeing is acceptable. But discarding???
