This question is flawed in my opinion. (And I know it is not directly asked, but it was implied.) By what I said above, Eru(Iluvatar) does not mean God(Jehovah), but I still hold that Christian morals are in M-E. But that violates the nature of the question.

Pretty much the same as above.

I don't see how "Christian Morals" come into it - I rather think that the morals so described may be held by those of other religions or none.
