Re: Gollum

What this poll is missing is a fourth choice which is BOTH... He was an evil creature committing much evil, pain and death. However he was also a pitiful and wretched creature deserving of our compassion... not our judgement. In the books Gandalf, ever the wise one, understood this.

When others wanted to take the knife to Gollum, he stayed their hand... Even the wise cannot see all ends, even Gollum has his part to play...

Gollum was wicked no doubt, but also a being to be pitied...
