Allegedly, Tolkien found archives on ancient history books in his university/Library.

And according to him the lord of the rings books are more of a historical retelling of European ancient history than a fiction series.

Really fascinating, if true.

Tolkein was secretly more based than he was allowed to say at the time. Definitely one of our guys in the occult war.

A major influence on Tolkiin was his gang called the Inklings. It was hard core Christian theology. CS Lewis was part of the group, and his writings on Christianity are great. GK Chesterton trailed the group and wrote theologically from their influence. Chesterton's detective books weren't great but paid the bills.

They were highly intelligent men, not intellectuals.

He was a brainwashed liberal who was good at writing. He's imitating history, not understanding it. He express his distaste as a Christian for the Nazis Aryan blood laws.

edit: lol people just downvote me cause they can't handle the truth. Here you go retards:

Scholars such as Fimi note that Tolkien was in some ways clearly anti-racist, as he actively opposed "racialist" theories, refused to declare that he had an "Aryan" origin so as to be published in Nazi Germany, spoke out against Nazism,[4] called Hitler a "ruddy little ignoramus",[27][T 10] and opposed anti-German propaganda in wartime.[T 11]

Opposition to peacetime Nazi racial theory
In 1938, the publishers of the German translation of The Hobbit, Rütten & Loening [de] of Potsdam, wrote to Tolkien asking if he was of pure arisch ("Aryan") descent. He asked his English publisher, Stanley Unwin if he should[T 1]

suffer this impertinence because of the possession of a German name, or do their lunatic laws require a certificate of 'arisch' origin from all persons of all countries?[T 1]

He drafted two letters to Rütten & Loening; only one survives, and his biographer Humphrey Carpenter presumes that Unwin sent the other to Rütten & Loening. The surviving draft says[T 1]

I regret that I am not clear as to what you intend by arisch. I am not of Aryan extraction: that is Indo-iranian... But if I am to understand that you are enquiring whether I am of Jewish origin, I can only reply that I regret that I appear to have no ancestors of that gifted people.[T 1]

Opposition to wartime anti-German propaganda
Tolkien expressed an anti-racist position during the Second World War.[10] Tolkien reacted with anger to the excesses of anti-German propaganda during World War II. In a 1944 letter to his son Christopher, he wrote:[10][T 11]

...it is distressing to see the [British] press grovelling in the gutter as low as Goebbels in his prime, shrieking that any German commander who holds out in a desperate situation (when, too, the military needs of his side clearly benefit) is a drunkard, and a besotted fanatic. ... There was a solemn article in the local [Oxford] paper seriously advocating systematic exterminating of the entire German nation as the only proper course after military victory: because, if you please, they are rattlesnakes, and don't know the difference between good and evil! (What of the writer?) The Germans have just as much right to declare the Poles and Jews exterminable vermin, subhuman, as we have to select the Germans: in other words, no right, whatever they have done.[T 11]

Opposition to racism in South Africa
During the Second World War, Tolkien's son Christopher, training in South Africa, expressed concern about the treatment of black people at the hands of whites, and his father replied:[T 12]

As for what you say or hint of 'local' conditions: I knew of them. I don't think they have much changed (even for the worse). I used to hear them discussed by my mother; and have ever since taken a special interest in that part of the world. The treatment of colour nearly always horrifies anyone going out from Britain & not only in South Africa. Unfort[unately] not many retain that generous sentiment for long.[T 12]

The Jews invented Christianity to make you believe the traditions of your own people, which are in your own best interests, are "evil".

Heil Odin! o/
