maybe because Tolkien fans [In reply to] Can't Post

are sane, rational individuals? CoolWink

And maybe bc there are existing religions or cults that an Eru- or Vala-based belief system might resemble (paganism and neopaganism, especially of Celt or Norse based systems, Wiccanism). Contrast that with, say, Scientology, which I'm no expert on, but from the little I've heard seems vastly different from anything that preexisted.

Disclaimer: I mean no offense to any Scientologists, or for that matter, any pagans, neopagans, or Wicca(e?).

A bag is like a hole that you can carry with you.
