One Ring to Rule them All... - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I just came up with this, so bear with me....
Could the one ring have been so powerful because it contained the spirit of Morgoth? That would explain alot. We know for a fact Sauron had the power to trap spirits in whatever he damn well pleased (the silent watchers, etc...) This would explain why he was more powerful than Morgoth had more recently been. When his old boss was cast down, he had become a wavering spirit in the void, well so do other spirits, and Sauron still managed to grab them. Also-Sauron spent the better part of himself in making that ring, but wasn't that whole part of him in essence the remaining evil of Morgoth? Just a crazy thought but it works.
