[QUOTE="Dansiph, post: 75131036, member: 410901"] (BACKGROUND) I recently saw some illustrations by a man called Ted Nasmith. I liked some of his artwork. Some of his art is about a book called[SIZE=4][B][I] The Silmarillion. [/I][/B]He's done a lot of work for Tolkien's books. I have a basic knoweldge of The Lord of the Rings from when I was young. I thought it might be nice to read the books and also The Silmarillion but I happened to find this essay. It doesn't outright say do not read Tolkien but it implies his works are not good for Christianity. I know a lot of people love Tolkien's books. [B]What do you think of this essay?[/B] It's a long read btw but this is a shortened version.[/SIZE] [URL='https://sacredsandwich.com/2017/10/26/the-sad-truth-of-tolkien-spirituality/']The Sad Truth Of Tolkien Spirituality | The Sacred Sandwich[/URL] If you do not agree with and/or like the essay, please still try and give some positive thoughts. I don't know much about the author or the website it is posted on. Thanks [/QUOTE]
