But the Lord of the Rings is a profoundly Christian story. That's because J.R.R. Tolkien was a profoundly Catholic man. His faith formed everything about him.
Yet in the biopic that Hollywood has just released about him his religion is basically excised.
Why?
Given that the vast majority of Americans are religious it's clear that pointing out that he was religious wouldn't offend most people.
The answer is simple. The left hates God because God stands between them and total power over we the people.
Now some on the left profess to be Christians but the Jesus they follow has very little in common with the Jesus who died on the Cross for us. Their Jesus is fine with active homosexuality, divorce, promiscuity, abortion, and whatever sexual perversion that the culture decides is ok.
The real Jesus said that we shouldn't kill the innocent--abortion--and that we should love one another not use one another as objects--promiscuity. He clearly condemned divorce and He said that active homosexuality is wrong even as we are to love people who suffer from same sex attraction.
People love the Lord of the Rings and admire Tolkien which is why Hollywood has to work hard to ensure that they don't find out that Tolkien was Tolkien because of his love of God.
