Thankyou for your kind greetings mark/helen-I've always been fascinated by the Inklings-and glad to have found one here. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

...What do all of you think? Since Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia is enriched with theology as Tolkien's books are...Whom do you think has more theology in them-I know it's hard to say but please answer just the same.

However, remember that even within the term "Chrisian" or theistic" there are many variations. For example, Tolkien's Galadriel was heavily influenced by his views on the Virgin Mary, who occupies a unique role within Catholicism. But there are other concepts which are more "generally Christian"--applicable to both Catholics and Protestants-- and still others, like Providence or the concept of sin, which someone like myself can equally appreciate.
