There are actual fantasy books that are more explicitly pagan and that rival LOTR: The Traveller in Black, The Broken Sword, the Harold Shea cycle. But you're so unoriginal and parasitic that you need to ride the coattails of the most Catholic fiction author ever.

@Is1dore "But you're so unoriginal and parasitic that you need to ride the coattails of the most Catholic fiction author ever." Tolkien was riding the coattails of the Poetic Edda. The Dwarves' names come directly from the Voluspa. Was Tolkien "Parasitic and unoriginal"?

@Is1dore Pretty telling that for them paganism can be reduced to folklore creatures and magic ( stuff that is present il literally every culture and religion ) It'sad because it also undermines Tolkien's original take on the sources ( like the rivalry of dwarves and elves)

@Is1dore They need to check his hard drive

@Is1dore Grown man with a female anime avatar. I wonder what sort of degenerate shit you're into. Christianity is the perfect religion for you - you just need to accept jesus and youre forgiven, your vices given the green light.

@Is1dore Using pagan myths was never seen as wrong by christians, in middle ages everyone knew Greco-Roman mythology, Troyan war was seen as important as Isaelite conquest of Canaan. There was monk so fascinated in Dedalus that he was trying to rebuild his wings
