i know it's totally my fault of distracting everyone, but how about we go back on topic, and talk about the Powers that control middle earth.

i think it was their intended role. if Eru has these guys, right, and they're the ultimate [after him] power of each different element/area of creation, and he says, "hey, chaps, good singing! now why don't you go take a look-see down at what we've done?" i think that knowing that they, as faithful Valar, arethe reresentatives of Eru's will, and they're power, they were fully intended to govern Arda. now, i have yet to see any interference whatsoever in the affairs of Middle Earth. going over there to get Morgoth was there own buisness, he buggered off to another country. they had every right to get him. and telling the race of Man to stay away from Arda, understandable as well. as they were intentionally made with mortality, they should abide in mortal realms, so then, when they wouldn't stop what was, in essence, forcibly invading Arda, against the wills of its owners, they were banished to ME, which, in my opinion, was fair. so yeah, in conclusion, i think they were meant to govern.

intresting. so if everything happened roughly the same in the beginning, except instead of elves, it was men who woke first, do you think that the valar would've done the same thing and taken them to valinor, or would they still have been made to stay in middle earth/beleriand because they were mortals.

good question. if Manwe knew Eru's will as well as they say he did, he obviously knew they were meant for mortality, and thus hopefully would make the same choice.

is this a boring thread now, or is it that we've just used up all ideas that we've got?

The path to the answer is to ask: Does Eru sing jazz or opera?


Seems like an opera kinda guy to me.

opera. but then, that's his public face. when he's alone, he puts on his makeup and becomes a goth rocker.

I know that this is a really, really old thread of mine, but now that we have some people interested in this board again, i thought i'd boost it, so that maybe we can get some new ideas for it.
