do you think it was pity that kept Elrond from forcing Isildur to toss the ring?It could be, if you consider that actually taking the ring from Isildur could cause him harm. Or, it could simply be that JRRT was being allegorical about Man's free will, to do good or evil.
Or maybe both.
Does this mean we're going to have to be deep and philosophical for another 40-odd posts?

It is not the kind of accommodations I had pictured for Entmoot! And think of what it would do to all the elves to be seen in horizontal stripes...

I blame it all on SpongeBob. And the Chinese. And the French, those cheese-eating surrender monkeys.

I only like to use the word "snáig" because it's a cool word, imo...

Would it be right for you to tie him up and keep him from smoking until the cravings went away? See my post #20961 to Corin... I still think the knowledge that taking the Ring could destroy Isildur's mind played a part in Elrond's decisions.

And the French... Hey, just so you know, my French ancestors were Calvinists...(French Huguenots)
