[Religion] Unintentional Religion in Tolkien's works? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I've read that Tolkein was rather critical of C.S. Lewis's (his close friend) Cronicals of Narnia because of the rather obvious symbolism. Can someone confirm/refute this?

An dedicated author of any religion or creed conveys some slice of his covictions in his writings, either subconciously or conciously.
