Littlemanpoet. Adam having a Pagan element or dimension. Depends how deep you want to go. It's also dependent on your understanding of Pagan. Paganism has different forms, from the primal Shamanic tradition, which Tom seems to partake of, to the Highly developed 'mysteries' of the classical world, or the Druids, which he doesn't. In other words, you have to define your concept of 'Pagan' before you can ask whether there's a Pagan dimension to Tom.
Maybe you also have to define what you mean by 'different' before you can get an answer as to why its 'different' near the shire!
