Like us, Gollum is blinded by the ring. The ring drives him away from his younger and purer self. Gollum serves as an example to Frodo.

God's will be done, even when people try to get in the way, he will use that and turn it into good. I think that is a really good connection to God and catholicism]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328019 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328024 The ring in LOTR represents sin, and Gollum pays so much attention to this ring. Just as we are always tempted to sin. The characters never get rid of Gollum when they had the opportunity. This symbolizes we are to love our enemies. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328024 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328030 I am amazed by all of the connections between the Catholic faith and the LOTR. I think the instrument for grace is tragic t but such an important aspect to showing the extra grace we need to carry out tasks. It shows us that we cannot live life alone and need grace to pull us through challenges. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328030 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328038 I liked how each of all three characters had an element to Catholicism implemented with them. The fact that Gollum was presented as a prophet was very nice and pleasing. I was genuinely surprised by that. The fact that the others had kingly, priestly, and prophetic traits that come with them. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328038 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328042 I think it's really interesting that there are so many Catholic themes in LOTR, especially how the characters correlate with the three Divine Offices of Jesus. I think we are so much like Gollum in the sense that sin is made so attractive and when persue it, it destroys us and causes us harm but when we allow God in our lives, the sin becomes a canvas for God's grace. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328042 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328048 I think the connection of the three characters to the priestly, prophetic, and kingly roles made a lot of sense. I never expected Gollum to be a symbol of grace, but after the video explained it, it made sense. The ring represented original sin, and Gollum was ultimately the one to destroy it. One thing I really found interesting was that the dates that Frodo began and ended his adventure are the same dates Jesus began his life and lost his life.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328048 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328054 Out of all the videos we have seen so far relating LOTR to Catholicism, I thought that the last one did the best job of explaining and connecting the two. He pointed out relations that I would have never seen like Gollum being a symbol of grace. On the other hand, comparing the three main characters to the priest, prophet, and king roles made a lot of sense. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328054 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328057 2021-01-22 18:27:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328057 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328066 i think it is really cool how there are so many different connections to the lord o the rings and the catholic, I believe that we are called to live out our faith as God told us. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328066 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328070 The connection with Gollum and the symbol of grace was very surprising to me even though Gollum is such such a despicable character ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328070 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/3oh3yj515qiytxz51617312602/wish/1115328077 The video that we watched was very good at showing how the series is a lot like the story of Christ with the ring being original sin.

Frodo's, Aragohn's, and Gandalf's all made a lot of sense. I especially like how he connected Golem to grace; it's a connection that I never would have drawn myself, but really puts the incident in a different light. It shows how God can act in the most unexpected ways.

Thinking about it  seeing how materialistic human are golem seems fitting to have this ending grace and become the gift to the one. An imperfect flawed thing that allows us to be sanctified through its rawness and imperfections. Seeing how well Tolkien wove his story with Catholic allusions. It shows how easy that is to do in our own lives.
