I'm Sorry, But I'm Not...
Christian Hobbit

After great study over the months, I have come to the conclusion that the charges of allegory I put on Tolkien, were false, in the direct manner. I have also found, in many peoples writing, well known, to not well know, have what I have come to theorize as "indirect allegory." It is what the subconscious contributes to a story. Yes, Tolkien never intended for the story to be allegorical, and am rather sorry for saying it. So Tolkien fans, if you can forgive me for that, I would really apreciate it.

On the stand point of the religious. I am sorry to people for offending them, but am not sorry for saying what I believe. I have gone through a lot as of late, and have prayed a lot that God would help me. When I wrote the articles, I had gone through situations that had angered me, and wrote the article in anger really, and nothing other then anger. I am rather sorry for it, and ask for forgiveness. As I have been at constant study of my life, I have come to believe many things in a different manner. I may disagree with a other religious ideals, but can not force you to believe otherwise. It is our God given right of free will, and people must chose what they believe, even if I may find it to be false. I still stand on what I believe, but have come to a more understanding of things of this worldly body.

Thank you, and God bless you.

In His Name,
Christian Hobbit
