all good points indeed(and may i thank saucy for defending me)

Perhaps i cxame on a bit strong with "chosen people" i do believe that although hobbits are based on england the dwarves are closer to the actual culture(thanks bethberry for brionging up my older threads.)

I dont think tolkien created hobbits "better than everyone" because they were british

i only meant this, remember tolkien wrote LOTR as an observer to him they appeared to be human-like, so in actuality we dont know when how or who crerated hobbits. And Saucepanman is right i also think there is very little space for evolution in ME

now an interesting point/question came up
if the hobbits were "chosen why the fellowship.

well think about this without bilbo finding the ring and frodo carrying it to rivendel would aragorn really have gone to minas tirith without merry and pippin would the three hunters ended up in rohan the hobbits of the fellowship almost act as guides bringing each group to their particular destiny.
