On the original question, if Aragorn had to answer the form it would probably be "One of the Faithful".

I hate those stupid forms though.

There is no good reason you need to know my religon in the U.S. unless something has changed since the last time I read the Constitution and we are now One Nation United Under One Church and you are planning an Inquistation (sp?). Or my gender or my race or anything else. I'm a person who bought your product if I want more info from you I'll contact you.

I never know what to put on the religon question either because I don't belong to any given church. I read the Bible and I believe in God and Jesus. That's it. No Church of Christ or Catholic Church or anything.

Can you tell I've had to fill out some of these forms today?

A few weeks ago I got my working papers and they asked for an approximate time of birth. Why do they need to know that much? They have the date and the year.

Perhaps it's due to your expiration date. They want to know how long you will stay fresh at room temperature.

That's interesting. Was it somehow linked to astrology?

That's a bit generic (for those not knowing to what you are referring), and is more than one word. Any ideas on trimming it down?

And I feel your pain.

These might not be good suggestions but I can tell you what are some Quenya and Sindarin words that might work.

Voronda and vórima are faithful in Quenya, while sadron means faithful one and sedryn means faithful ones in Sindarin. Of the four I think sedryn sounds the best but I'm not sure if this is something along the lines of what you're looking for or not.
