Just wanted to point out that the Purpose and the Practice of power can be two very different things. Take gunpowder, the Chinse intended that it be used to create magnificent fireworks to celebrate grand occasions but the practical use of it was as a weapon of war. Every form of power can be used for ill purposes or something other than the inventor intended.

Elrond and Galadriel both spoke the truth and inmy view did not contradict each other.
