Who or What is Tom Bombadil?

OK.

We’ve got ourselves into a flap over Balrog wings…

We’ve tried to pierce the fog that lies around the shape of Elves’ ears…

We’ve fallen out over what happened at Mount Doom…

We’ve come to blows over the question of who felled Sauron…

We’ve even asked the ungodly question of Eru’s nature…

But the time has come to ask the most difficult question of all. To confront the issue that has caused more heartache than any other on the Downs. Take courage my friends, for you are not alone...there will be others with you in the journey ahead as you ask yourself
