Eonwe has just left Hobbiton.
Silmaril

Well, I don't know. It seems that you would have to discuss things in order to come to a conclution. Meaning you have to conclude that you are looking at the issue wrong, or that Tolkien messed up a bit. Sure, in writing that spanned so many years and so many versions, I'm sure there will be leftover threads, or unexlained quiestions, though you can't just catagorically say all the "mistakes" should just be lived with. Who says they are really mistakes. Some will and some won't. It seems that good editorial work has cleared up some "mistakes" already.



P.S. I would consider myself a decently proficient Lord of the Rings fan, but I don't really see where any of his characters do illogical things, or any statements contradict eachother.

PPS That is funny, cuase when I saw the title, i thought of Human Rights...
