Imagine reading The Lord of the Rings through a secular lens. So instead of the day the One Ring was destroyed being also the date of the Annunciation, the Crucifixion, and the first day of creation, it's just Amazon's Tolkien Day.

#lord of the rings #catholic things #annunciation #for anyone who was wondering i did make the deadline!#i read morning prayer for the annunciation #and then immediately read the mount doom chapter #and even read 'the fields of cormallen' afterward #felt extremely festive #i got an email from amazon afterward telling me it was tolkien day #and i was just like 'excuse you it is one of the great solemnities of the church'#'how dare you reduce this feast to an excuse to sell books?'
