Well...... [In reply to] Can't Post
If I may interject a thought, I think I would rather have the Tolkien pantheon then the greek/roman. I mean with the greek/roman pantheon you had a bunch of exalted humans who didn't have any moral boundaries and could harm/help humans on a whim. The Tolkien pantheon wasn't perfect either, they made mistakes too (if I'm not mistaken) they were just more well behaved.
What happened when Legolas and Aragorn road with Eomer in the van.
Aragorn: Eomer, Legolas has his bow on my side of the seat!
Legolas: Well Aragorn keeps slapping me while practicing his "heroic" poses.
Eomer: Don't make me turn this van around.
