Tolkien

well Craban-I sort of understand why you would'nt feel so much "theology" In Tolkien's work....Tolkien doesn't really "show"-or how should I say this-When you comprehend it as a christian as myself and others on this forum-you begin to see the Theology in his owrk-but if your not-you typically don't see it...well someone else might give you a better explanation...Now on Lewis' case-It is easier to grasp-so to speak-the Theology-since there are many things in the bible that are in Lewis' work...

In addition to that-Tolkien was also well aware that non-christians wouldn't see the Theology...
