Evangelicals, like Emma, point to LOTR as a source of masculine role models, and they do this with good intentions, but the full suite of evangelical beliefs eliminates the possibility of any guy actually following the LOTR roadmap. 

Emma: 
- should young guys be monarchists? Wouldn’t that be the masculine LOTR way?
- which do you think is more important for a young guy: courage or Bible reading?
- who exactly do you think a young guy should be strong against? Migrants? Someone else? 
- are you comfortable following a great man who isn’t tame? Why or why not? What would LOTR say about this?

Much more I could say on this. I agree with the premise that LOTR has good masculine role models, but you have to understand that the story doesn’t work if Aragorn is a product manager who is home for dinner every night and at most does a stint in a social democracy. 

Most evangelicals like to wave their  hands about LOTR then just pick and choose whatever characteristics fit nicely into their PWC brain.
