Except he really, really was, and it really wasnât.
Frodo was crafted as the acme Catholic martyr.
He was tasked with the literally (yes pun) impossible - something that no mortal could do⌠much less anyone of angelic power levels, such as Gandalf.
Nobody could accomplish the task.
But Frodo WAS the best suited for it - the chosen one as were.
But it had to be HIS choice.
Success could only come from the trying, and failing, after every last ounce had been wrung from his soul, fighting Evil, all the way to the very center of its power in Hell.
Frodo was tasked with giving all of himself, a sacrifice for the very sin of the worldâs creation, and the litmus for its redemption.
It was only by Grace, by the intervening Hand of Eru Iluvatar Himself, after Frodoâs sacrifice of his very self, that the ring is destroyed.
It was by Eruâs direct willing intervention (something that had NEVER in the history of Middle Earth ever happened before) that Gollum fell into the Pit of Doom.
Everyone else in the Fellowship and beyond aided in Frodoâs getting to Mt. Doom, true.
But the true fight was his alone.
And he WON.
Yet 99.99% of the world could not even begin to wrap their heads around what he went through.
Those who could, sailed away into the afterlife, much as he did.
Sorry for the long rant, but goddamned if I could stand by and let that shitty false analogy get a pass.
