But then the question is: do the organisations involved intend to reflect his faith, and their influence on his works, in an accurate way?

(I think if you look closely there is not nearly as much controversy about any religious element as the article implies; seems like an attempt to generate outrage from both sides to me)

I find this article to be a beat-up, the project itself dubious and the statement made by the Tolkien Society another attempt to appear relevant.

The Estate made the only sensible decision by declining to comment.
