Good point Gandalf.

Welcome,Greyhame.

I agree with you, but find it odd that Tolkien chose to write it the way he did. He created a world where Judeo-Christian befliefs did not exist and studied and modeled it after cultures where said Judeo-Christian beliefs did not exist. Why would he do that?

I guess if you truly believe something it is such a part of you it comes out whether you intend it to or not.
