Tar-ancalime, being christian myself, I do like to sort of look at how Tolkien incorporates religion into his books. For example Eru, Valar, as Encaitare said ,Gandalf. For an honest answer, when making my comments about Frodo, christianity/religion never happened to pop into my mind. I do see what you mean though, how the phrase "taking on sins" is on the religious side.
