You're trippin [In reply to] Can't Post

Well I do think the silmarillion is the final authority. Although it is condensed, it is the HoME, just cleaned up and corrected. How are you gonna trust those books more then the silmarillion when the vanyar are called teleri and the noldor called gnomes and many other things that don't add up anymore. The history of middle earth, although more detailed and fun to read are inaccurate and incorrect. Tolkein makes not of many of these things in his notes. Christopher tolkein did not write the silmarillion, he only edited it. He edited things his father had established as concrete. Like the noldor instead of gnomes. And the vanyer having their proper title along with the teleri. Basically the HoME is like the old testament while the silmarillion is the new testament. And just cause the silmarillion is condensed doesn't make it invalid.

And please tell me why you'd prefer the noldor to be stuck on tol erresea and how their punishment wouldn't be a punishment on the teleri themselves? Who did nothing wrong? Why would the valar and illuvetar place the burden on the teleri who suffered more from the noldor then any others? If you can't answer how the teleri wouldn't be burdened with this and if you can explain how manwe and the valar were able to release melkor of his setence, then why would they never release the noldor of there doom? And no offense, I really don't see you giving me any good answer as to these questions. And if you can't then, I cannot in any way, believe otherwise of the noldor being pardoned. The clearest and most recent up to date evidence is my quote above of finrod walking in eldamar. It is written, more recently then HoME, not really sure how you can over look that or act as if it doesn't count case tolkein son, chose how to edit these stories not actually write them himself. What is in the silmarillion was written by jrr himself.
