"Rowley Birkin QC from the Fast Show"- Yes to the extent that i wonder if they didn't hear this recording and base the character on an impression of it.
Yes, the silences are rather astonishing aren't they..
Tolkien attended mass daily and confession before mass almost daily. One of his son was a priest (John, who died in 2003).
Tolkien wrote in his letters that the drama at the core of his mithology was "the adoration which must only offered to God".
Don't be silly. Nobody aims at inventing a cult based on Tolien's work. This cult is not a consequence of his mithology, this cult IS THE CAUSE OF HIS MITHOLOGY and this cult is THE CATHOLIC LITURGY.

Tolkien = an unrecognised saint of the Catholic Church.
Time will manifest that these statements are true.
There are MANY ways of being a saint but really only one: being united with the Saviour.
And Tolkien was.
Tolkien, ora pro nobis coram Deo!
JRR TOLKIEN WASNT EVEN TRYING TO START A CULT THERES ENOUGH DICKS TO DO IT THEMSELVES
