Believe it or not, during today, I was thinking about this even more. I came up with one in particular, but another just now. The idea of fighting against evil, even when all is hopeless. The concept of standing firm even without a hope in the world.

The second one is sacrifice. Frodo gave up everything to save Middle-Earth. Gandalf sacrificed himself to save the Fellowship (IE Bride of Khazad-Dûm). Boromir sacrificed himself to save Merry and Pippin.

I had considered the spiritual themes of ME--that's probably one of the ones I hear most about. However, I was a little reluctant to write about that one, because I'm not very knowledgeable about religious texts and tenets (I don't attend church).
Oh, may I suggest you seek a church soon? PM me, if you would, too. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
