Do you think we should have one?

Debate of the Month

Well, the Harry Potter Forum has one, and I think it would be cool if we did, since we all enjoy debating so much, and it might help sorta revive the forum...just a suggestion...

So, If anyone has an opinion on this, or an idea for a debate...post 😛

DUH i do noting but argu even when they agree so yes we should 👆 =

Let's debate!😱

😱 about whatsit?

*looks at Elessea*

Tell us leader.shock

😑 err...I make idea, you guys can choose the topic -cowers-

Books:

Do Balrogs have wings? -- this can go on forever since nobody knows the truth but it can provide a good debate.

Outrage: Why most Christians shun Harry Potter for its magic while not minding The Lord of the Rings? (well, Tolkien was banned in some schools but not to the same extent that HP was).

Allegory? -- Tolkien stated entirely clear that there wasn't any of it in his books but some people might insist on their point of view?

Melkor: Evil by Nature or Evil by Will?

Bad guys: Is there any hope of redemption?

Racism in LotR?

Sexism?

Feanor: Self-important or Misunderstood?

Movies:

Frodo: Both the strongest and weakest character in the Trilogy?

Changes in LotR: Why all the anger?

"Faramir" was in the movie?

Grima crying: What does it mean?

Good and Evil: Downplayed or Overplayed?

Dumbing down the Books?

^Those could be some possible topics for debate.

-gasp- my thread was on the second page cry

Eldarion is living a normal mortal's life, like the Dúnedain, Aragorn's ancestors, yes 🙂

As his mother chose mortality, he doesn't even have a choice;
This was a little different earlier in Arda's history, for example Dior, the son of Lúthien (an elf) and Beren (mortal), lived an immortal's life until he was slain; Elrond and Elros, however, also descendants of a marriage between an elf (or a five-eights-or-so-elf 😛) and a mortal (ok, mortal half-elf 🙄 ) were allowed to choose whether they wanted to be mortal or immortal.

that doesn't make much sense lol...tolkein changed his mind 😖...

I think it does make sense given the surroundings and familiar conditions all those people had 🙂 and the choices of their parents
