Baran-
I can see where you're coming from, and I do think that Gandalf was definitly taking a risk, but I disagree w/ what you said, too!
-Now, it was true that the odds WERE "one to many million"- and it is true that Frodo completed the task that no other Middle Earth creatures could have.
-BUT... with all this in mind, how could you say it was by "unbelievable luck several times" that Frodo suceeded???
(LOTR may be set in a fantastic setting, but the principles are true to real-life... people just dont defeat odds like that by CHANCE!!)
-Obviously, it wasn't luck or just like a freak chance thing by which Frodo suceeded, it was the kind of thing that HAD to happen and was just meant to happen! (imagine if it hadn't...)
-Gandalf recognized this and in complete faith(and i guess a little insanity [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ), he sent Frodo.
SO, think that through and let me hear what you have to say [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] !
