Elvesrhot: There is no place to criticize others for analyzing their favorite piece of literature. If it weren't for people being analytical and discussing things, there would be nothing to learn. It is the essence of human nature that we must discover and analyze what we discover. If you have no useful input into the discussion, then please refrain from commenting.
The Barrowdowns has never been a place to bicker over petty issues and differences, please don't turn it into one.
As for Boromir, I think he played a crucial role in Frodo's departure from the Fellowship, and I do believe that he was "meant" (and I use this word loosely) to be with the fellowship and that he was meant to cause Frodo to make the decision of going to Mordor without the Company.
