Valar: Gods or Angels?
Before reading the Silmarillion, I read a few essays about the work, and a few of them refer to the Valar as Gods, and some refer to them as angels. Now I know these terms are "dumbed down," but after reading the Sil twice it still puzzles me, so I would like to inquire of the participants of this forum (whom I consider to be very wise):
If you had to categorize the Valar in this manner, how would you describe them?
