[The Saucepan Man]

That's not exactly what I meant.

I understand what you mean, phantom. It's just that I think that it detracts from Feanor's character to consider his actions in terms of fulfilling the will of Eru. As Amarie has suggested, Feanor's actions fulfilled the will of Eru in much the same way that those of Morgoth did. No, Feanor's actions were driven by his own motives, feelings and desires. Those I can sympathise with. But I have little sympathy for the way that he put them into effect.

Sort of like his heart could see the future and if necessary would overcome the counsel of his mind so he would choose that which would bring about good.

Well if that was the case, then his heart was misguided. To the extent that his actions did ultimately work to the good (and I agree that the return of the Noldor to ME was, overall, a good thing), I firmly believe that there were ways in which the same good could have been acheived without the suffering inflicted along the way - not just the Kinslaying and the burning of the Teleri ships, but also the whole way in which the Doom of Mandos played itself out.
