I'm just wondering...... (Tolkien religion)

[Kalimac]

I doubt that forming a "Tolkien religion" would get you much more than a few raised eyebrows; after all, Scientology was invented fairly recently, and there was a thing recently (I think in Australia) where people were trying to have "Jedi" declared as an official religion, and that's all from the head of George Lucas. But Tolkien himself was very Catholic, and would probably be horrified at the prospect - so it probably wouldn't be the best way to honour him.

And Olorin, I'm sorry, but your comments were rather offensive. It's legitimate (if hardly relevant) to say that "The Pope says this, and I disagree with him because of x,y,z" but instead you're assuming that what he says on that particular issue is "just wrong" as if that were some sort of universally acknowledged truth. You may not have meant to offend, but you certainly succeeded in doing so nonetheless.
