Christian point of view? The answer is simply that that is the way Christians see things. My family is positively crawling with them, and though sometimes they may turn the volume up or down on the old 'intensity' dial, it is ALWAYS going. But it's the same for anybody else - Muslims see things from a Muslim point of view. Vegetarians see things from a vegetarian point of view (how could Aragorn have killed that deer just for the five of them - what a waste). Tolkein 'purists' see things from a Tolkein purist point of view, scrutinizing the movie as thoroughly as any film critic or religious zealot out there.
