This conversation is utterly pointless.

Musing on "what if" questions like this is absurd. "What if" Denethor II was able to shoot rainbow swirly beams out of his fingers, but Tolkien never mentioned it? If I "need no proof", then this is a totally okay converstaion to have. It doesn't "completely go against canon". If it does, I'd like you to prove it.

Now, obviously, Denethor II, the steward of Gondor, does not shoot rainbow swirlies out of his fingers. But by your logic, that's a reasonable thing to say. If it is not, i'd like you to prove it.

Now, I'll be gone from this conversation because I see it going absolutely nowhere. Speculating on what middle-earth religions were like in teachings, rituals, etc. is foolish and a waste of time because no one can ever present legitimate arguments or facts, or objectively say "My way of thinking in this case is better than yours."
