Considering the antisemetic dogwhistling, sexism, anti-Islamic rhetoric, and apologism of the American Confederacy going on in Pearces' recent and republished articles at IC, I don't think he has changed much at all since his conversion. (Also, blaming your white supremacist racism on the "relativism" you were exposed to/"indoctrinated in" at public school instead of good Christian virtue ain't the way. A lot of us who went to public school came out, you know, *not* white supremacists, despite the horrors of relativism. :D)

Anyway. I fear Pearce and others will have to feature somewhat, but all of your commentary here is very helpful for organizing thoughts about upcoming episodes on Tolkien's religion!
