The Religion of Middle-Earth

[Saxywoo]

Greetings, Occhi:

I knew that Tolkien was a devout in one of the religions, but I wasn't sure which one it was. Thank you for that little tidbit of information that I knew at one point in time, and was going crazy trying to remember.

I remember reading an article about why Tolkien wrote the books in the first place, which goes back to his days at school. He was classmates with C. S. Lewis. Tolkien was disappointed with how the Chronicles of Narnia went, so he set out to write something better. And we ended up with Lord of the Rings. Can you verify or deny this? And weren't both stories started because of an assignment or something like that?

Thanks!
