It seems that the protector is worse than the punisher.

“What does the term american refers to” asked the boy, and the wise man answered: “Lets look at the dictionary then.”
As an adjective American is:
1. Of or relating to the United States of America or its people, language, or culture.
2. Of or relating to North or South America, the West Indies, or the Western Hemisphere.
As a noun American is:
A native or inhabitant of America.
A citizen of the United States.

Then the boy asked, “What is America then?”, and the wise man looked at the dictionary again:
1. The United States.
2. also the A·mer·i·cas. The landmasses and islands of North America, Central America, and South America.

Confused, the boy asked, “Does the term american refers solely to a us citizen or to any person in North, Central or South America?”
The wise man replied: “What do you think?”, and the boy answered: “It is clear to me that while the term american is used to refers to us citizens, one can also use it to refer to any person who is from that continent too,” the boy thought for a while and asked the wise man, “Am I right?”, and he replied: “But of course.”
The boy wondered, why is it that some people refuse to acknowledge the fact that the term american refers not only to US citizens but to anyone of the American continent?, but then sadly, the boy understood, that it is the calamity of ignorance.

Sorry, the rage goes with the red hair and green eyes. I was born to be wild and untamed. His outright insolence was the cause of my irresponsible words.
However, I take them back, I will not "slay" Maedhros. Besides, he's only a little pup who needs a rolled newpaper to swat his little patoot, not to be slain. Even if I was only joking (reread it!)
I....*grrrr*.... appologize.

Then Fingon the valiant resolved to heal the feud. Of all the children of Finwe he is most justly renowned: for his valour was as a fire and steadfast as the hills of stone; wise he was, and skilled in voice and hand; troth and justice he loved and bore good will to all, both Elves and Men, hating Morgoth only; he sought not his own, neither power and glory...
HoME 5; The lost road

Although admittely, this is pre-LoTR Silamrillion, and it was revised, (esp. the relationships. Here Angrod and Aegnor are pro-Feanorian, whislt the rest of the Finweans princes are anti) and his friendship with Maedhros is not a factor yet, we can see that Fingon is described as the greatest of the Finweans. Finrod included....

Yes, for the sake of his sanity, please stop. Is there any thread where this argument hasn't tumbled over into?

I am the only Finrod. So...SGH and I were never legally married. It's an unoficcial entmoot thing. Since I'm king and she's queen of Nargothrond.

I can't have you both? Heck I'm king. Solomon had 700 wives (& 300 concubines). Oh yeah, I'm an elf. I forgot.

Finrod, who is a High Elf, and king, deserves a woman like himself; baeutiful, powerful, and wise, not a lowly plow maid that is only good for weaving and tending sheep. Thank you.

Now, back to Fingon.

Why do I get this feeling that everytime someone says "Let's get back on topic" in this discussion, something mysteriously happens, and suddenly Finrod is back on again? Finrod is sitting up there somewhere, "chanting a song of wizardry", I bet

*looks around in confusion* This isn't the real world?

A song of wizardry started by Sauron. The answer was Felagund's song of staying, resisting, battling against power, of secrets kept, strength like a tower, and trust unbroken, freedom, escape; of changing and shifting shape, of snares eluded, broken traps, the prison opening, the chain that snaps. And softly in the gloom they heard the birds singing afar in Nargothrond, the sighing of the Sea beyond, and the western world, on sand, on sand of pearls in Elvenland. *sigh*

Yes, we are off topic. She started it *points at SGH*.
And ahem "Finrod", no offense, but I only want the real thing. Sorry, sweety.

Inderjit: your response, as you say is "pre-LotR Sil". Then shouldn't we keep our discussion to only what was finally decided for the story? There were so many changes before, it gets very confusing.
