Tolkien was a great writer. Possibly his greatness related to his fantasy world. The LOTR's was a Christian allegory..and a damn good one.

As for Chesterton..you know that I hate him is spite that I like some of his stories. He was a smug and a stupid little bastard.

"Frodo: What are we holding on to Sam?

Sam: That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo... and it's worth fighting for."

Yes, yes. Regardless of our religions or philosophies...we must not doubt this. In the end all suffering occurs in the mind...but it occurs, nevertheless.

What is love? Is it not that we strive to attach joy to another mind?
