I thought that Tolkien never had his religion uttered in his books. But one one day in class, someone tolled a story of ehm, I believe Mozes, who goes up a mountain to sacrefise his son. The name of the mountain is: Moria. Do you think Tolkien named it on purpose or by accident? If on purpose, are there other things he named from the bible?
