I always thought that the theme seemed more like the type where it shows that although 'evil' can never be fully evicted from our world, that it can get the crap kicked out of it by 'good', and that as long as there are some willing to fight for what is 'right', that everything will be as close to all right as you can get. But that's just what I thought. i also always figured that the reason Tolkien's work was so complicated was so that everyone would get something different out of reading it.
