I just thought it was interesting how two such diverging viewpoints can spring out of what appears to be the same source.

The article I link to above is, at least, a good indication that Christians are not a homogenous group and Christian attitudes toward Tolkien and how he should or shouldn't be represented on film can, and will, diverge.

Considering how easy it is for one to assume what and who is or isn't Christian (hee hee), I thought this article might be good to bring up.
