Evil? Dictatorship?
Annatar

Fearlas, on the subject of dictatorship, King Elessar, was a dictator. He was absolute ruler of the Reunited Kingdom. He gave orders and they were obeyed. He may have been a benign dictator but a dictator nevertheless. As for all evil countries, kingdoms, systems etc ending, ALL countries, kingdoms, systems etc end. All empires rise and fall. The Holy Roman Empire lasted till 1806... a long time but still ended. the current American Empire is on the rise, its forerunner the British Empire has its sun setting (indeed its creeping up on midnight).
But all things end.
Swings and roundabouts.
All empires end... so that means Valinor will eventually fall, as they get bored with existence (even the powers will envy Mans death). Question is, who will outlast who?
Its not the winning its the fun of taking part

As for evil... what is evil?? Just a persons opinion, a view of things. Like "cold", there is no such thing. Just various degrees of heat. It is our view/opinion of a degree of heat that allows us to call it hot or cold. What for one person is warm is freezing for another. Is one correct and the other wrong? No, it is just an opinion, a view.
(Oh how I love playing the Devils Advocate!)

Fearlas, check out a post I did earlier...

Who's evil now?

Ahh, Annatar will now just stop enjoying messing around for a little bit to wish everyone here and their families a Holy, Peaceful and quiet Christmas.

Dia Duit

See you all later :) Ash Nazg...
