Jesus must have told the best jokes! All these deep theological insights and more are contained in this episode of Unlimited Opinions! We break down Chapter 1 of Austin Freeman's Tolkien Dogmatics, discussing whether or not we can really know God, what God is, how Tolkien represents the Trinity in his works, and the names we give to God. We go deep into the forest of Tolkien lore in this episode, looking at Tolkien's discussion with C.S. Lewis on Addison's Walk, The Debate of Finrod and Andreth, Leaf by Niggle, and much more! We also talk about whether or not Joe Biden listens to our podcast! Follow us on Twitter! @UlmtdOpinions
