:I have refrained from editing the article itself precisely because I knew that my views would be disputed by some legitimately conservative Christians, but I do note that these concerns are raised in the Harry Potter entry, and it's hard to imagine that the Harry Potter series would exist but for LOTR, since they so greatly enhanced the literary status of the occult fantasy genre, so I am not merely "off my rocker" here. Harry Potter doesn't even pretend to be a Christian allegory. LOTR is frequently sold to our community that way, based on Tolkien's deep faith.--<font color=navy>[[User:JesusSaves|JesusSaves]] 08:14, 11 March 2007 (EDT)</font>

== Synopsis ==
The lead-in to the synopsis sounds much more like the movie than the book. I've read the book 8 or 9 times and have seen TFOTR at least 3 times. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] 13:07, 11 April 2007 (EDT)
