Do we live in Middle-earth?

[eothain of fenland]

I've always thougt of ME as a legend. It is partially true, but very biased. Orcs are not that easy to kill, and probably not as ugly as they are described. There is no magic, no ringwraiths, sauron was maybe just a powerful man, and the sauron spirit eye thing was another powerful man or something... And as people passed on this legend the story was altered and changed a lot. But in reality this story is just a bunch of made up ........ that I and many others think is very interesting, and it is made up so well that people think it is real...
And as for parallel universes, I personally dont believe in them. But I think it could be possible... But when people say "if you would have done this, something else could happen etc..." Well... they did not do anything differently so nothing different happened... I dont think my decision will start another PU or anything
