Anywho, regarding Beren. Please explain where in the book he perpetrated murder and theft.
He killed lots of orcs and stole a Silmaril. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I only mentioned his murder and theft in order to illustrate that almost nothing in and of itself is wrong, circumstances have to be considered. There's almost always a certain instance or situation in which a certain crime is acceptable.

I agree wholeheartedly that he is a grey area in Tolkien's stories. I'm just not too fond of him!

But your argument is compelling phantom.
This says to me that you pondered the alternatives but chose to keep your own opinion. That's the type of Feanor-disliker that I can get along with. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
