Fosco, please watch what you say. And there is a good reason Christians will use any "excuse" to get their message across- the message is very important. As for LotR being a better story than the Bible, you are entitled to your own opinion.
Also, Tolkien was creating a world with good guys and bad guys. It's not surprising that the good guys have what he probably considered good traits, and the bad guys have bad traits. Since he was Christian, his "good" traits were probably Christian traits.
