The key to Lord of the Rings is...

Fatty Lumpkin. If you do not know who this is, then you are bereft of all joy in life. Tolkien wrote all of Lord of the Rings solely for Fatty Lumpkin.

Deny not truth.

Hear hear! :) Although I do think good ol' Bill deserves some credit...he was Lumpkin's pal, after all...

So, if the sole purpose of LotR is Lumpkin, why INDEED did Tolkien include hobbits?

Because he is so clever! Tolkien doesn't want us to be overwhelmed by Fatty Lumpkin's charm. ^^
