Anything can be
assumed. If you or anyone wishes to
assume Gandalf was lying then no-one can stop you.
That also works.
I think it can also be
assumed that Gandalf was a Martian if one wishes.
Similarly it can be
assumed that Balrogs had wings or they did not, whatever the person assuming wishes to
assume.
I am not trying to be offensive
. I point out that Zigūr’s solution also involves assumptions.
Again, your solution and Zigūr’s solution both work, if one accepts your assumptions.
To continue this discussion go to the thread entitled
Gandalf’s Possible Inaccuracy in the chapter “The Shadow of the Past”. Hopefully this will allow this current thread to continue without talking about Gandalf’s Possible Inaccuracy in the chapter “The Shadow of the Past”.
Sorry, Mithadan.
