Looks to be a very interesting discussion. I just realised what I've been missing in my time away from the 'Downs. (yes, H-I, LMP, and Iarwain, I'm an oldster like you, just back under a different name. Eruhen I was in my youth in the Barrows which are forgotten.
)
Regardless, Iarwain's posed a stimulating topic and I concur with LMP: while H-I laid a very good groundwork for a discussion, I'm going to need some time to think about this. It's getting too late in the day for me to worry about such things, but don't worry, I'll be back tomorrow with a post contemplating Eru, evil, sources, and their relationship within the Legendarium. I'll try my best to keep it limited solely to the Legendarium, but I can't make any promises that the primary world won't creep in.
Peace,
