I don't know whether or not I should join in this conversation, but I guess I will. Of course this is a matter of opinion, and that is what you want, is it not? So I'll just add my opinion. I think the meaning of The Lord of the Rings is in the intention of the author. I know that puts me with the weaker side, or perhaps the "unpopular" side of this poll. (No offence to any who have picked the "Intention of the Author". But that is my oppinion.
