LOTR vs. Religion

[Emni Windrunner]

Actually, it is possible to be both Catholic and Calvinist; the Calvinistic teachings are not at odds with the teachings of the Catholic church. The fact that John Calvin was a Reformer and a Protestant had nothing to do with it, because in the end, the choice is between Calvinism and Arminianism, which could both be considered equally applicable to Protestant and Catholic doctrines.<P>And as for why no Hindus, Muslims, etc. have spoken up...who says they haven't? Not everyone posting here has said that they are Christians. And if it bothers you that these others haven't posted, by all means, go find some and tell them their opinions would be appreciated here. No one said they couldn't come; they just either haven't or haven't declared themselves.
