Dorathain_Flamesword has just left Hobbiton.
Sting Tokien and C.S. Lewis

Ok, I was talking to my friend yesterday night and we were talking about the biblical ties in the Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit, i.e. Gandalf portraying Jesus in a way.

And then we got into the discussion of Tokien being religous. And we talked about C.S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia books and how they respresent biblical stuff. And my friend said that Tokien said that C.S. Lewis' books were foolish and were not religous. Is this true?

"Devilry of Saruman!" cried Aragorn. -Helm's Deep.
