I would have to say that Tolkiens writings did in fact alter or shape my worldview. The most telling sign of this is that I adopted his anti-technological theme (if you will). From first readings I agreed with his portrayed views of the destruction wrought by human-kinds andvances. While there are arguements for and against advance (Damn Environmental Economics) I have from that point percieved most of it as 'evil'
The road goes ever on...</p>
